No one knows how to plan a wedding like Mindy Weiss, the “mega-star wedding planner” (People magazine) whose wide-ranging clientele includes actors, artists, and musicians. In The Wedding Book, she created the ultimate all-in-one guide; from that, she’s now culled an invaluable digest on how to plan your very best wedding possible while adhering to a budget.

Here’s a general wedding budget overview: an at-a-glance chart of what traditionally consumes most of the budget, and what should cost the least. Guidelines to figure out who’s paying for what. The ten best ways to cut costs, beginning with trimming the guest list, and the five best splurges—the kind of things that make a big difference for little cost. Dozens of tips throughout show how to save money on food, drinks, flowers, photography, music, the wedding dress, and more—guaranteeing that you’ll not only wind up with a dream wedding, but also with the satisfaction of knowing it was a smart wedding.

    This review is from: Your Dream Wedding on a Budget: 47 Cost-Cutting Secrets from America's Favorite Wedding Planner (Workman Shorts) (Kindle Edition)
    Extremely basic, you can find the same information all over the place. And includes the sentence "Be prepared for a possible reality check. Your dream wedding may call for a $200,000 budget, and you may find out that you can't spend a penny over $50,000." Not even worth wasting your time on unless it's the first thing you're reading in regards to wedding planning. Not even worth the few minutes I spent reading it, even considering it was free.

    Thanks for the free book. Disappointed because I thought it would be a little better. Some good suggestions, if you live in a big city.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect!, October 13, 2011
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    I am 130 lbs, 5'4" and a 32a. I ordered an XS and it was an almost perfect fit. The band around my ribs is perfect, it is a true 32. I will have to take the straps up about 1/4 inch each and I amy have to hem it about 1/2 inch. This is my wedding dress, and I am so thrilled with the quality. The back is beautiful! Ivory is great, you cannot see through even if I stand in front of a window. Wedding dress shopping has been a nightmare and when I got this simple dress out of a priority mail box and put it on, my mom cried. It really is perfect!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, May 1, 2011
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    A beautiful dress. Fits exactly as the sizing guide said it would. I can't wait to wear it to prom. The quality is excellent. There is plenty of length in the skirt - I'm 5' 8" and 4" heels cause the dress to just brush the floor. The straps are a bit long on me, but they should be no difficult task to shorten. It is worth every penny - and excellent purchase.

    I paid expedited shipping to make sure it got here by prom. I submitted my order at 11pm on a Thursday, and the shipping estimate said it would get here between Monday and the following Thursday. I recieved it on Saturday afternoon, a day and a half later. It came from the other end of the country. I couldn't be happier.

    4.0 out of 5 stars especially lovely, April 13, 2012

    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    This dress is beautiful, however, if you do not have a smaller waist line you will be left looking a bit frumpy. The dress is well made and styled beautifully for all intent and purpose. It has a rich exquisite look and the chiffon flows sensually. Unfortunately I have a dis-proportionate waist to breast ratio and could not get past the bulky look it gives to the waist.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Better than expected, June 16, 2011
    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
    Hello,

    This dress is so much nicer than we expected. The materials are very nice, the color is awesome. For the price I would say this is one of the better buys of the year. There are two issues with this dress in my opinion, the first is that it runs very small on the top. We ordered this for my mom in a size 14 because she generally wears a 10 and we are aware wedding dresses run small, yet the top portion of this runs extrememly small. The second is the train on this dress is undescribely long. I mean you must really want a dress with a long train to appreciate this dress. Overall I would say if you order the correct size and love a long train you will be in love with this dress.

    Hope this helps!
