Synopsis

How I Planned Your Wedding: The All-True Story of a Mother and Daughter Surviving the Happiest Day of Their Lives   Bestselling author Susan Wiggs literally wrote the book on happily-ever-after love. But orchestrating her daughter Elizabeth's real-world wedding turned into a different story altogether, and one that takes two to tell—the mother and the bride.   Here is the all-too-true tale of a mother and daughter collaborating on life's ultimate celebration—a dream wedding. Often poignant, sometimes irreverent and always hilarious, this charming book is also packed with useful advice from both ends of the cupcake-tasting table. Join mother and daughter as they wade through the trenches of flowers and favors, grueling gown decisions…and the cold, cruel realities of a budget. With luck, love and loads of patience, they come out on the other side, bloodied but unbowed, replete with life lessons—and closer than ever before.

Read so many great reviews of this book, so I'm not really sure why I seemed to be the only one to not enjoy it. As an engaged person myself, I was hoping for some pointers. Instead, I got to read a story of a privileged bride who doesn't realize she's privileged. She tries to make the argument that......more

Goodreads review by Ashleigh

Have you ever found a book that you stay up late into the night reading because you can't put it down? That feeling is the Holy Grail of Books and that's what I found here. I stayed up until 3AM reading this book, knowing I should go to sleep so that my sleep cycle wasn't thrown out of whack...and u......more

Goodreads review by Cari

I bought this one for my now-sister-in-law before she married my brother five years ago. Loved Elizabeth's blog at the time and assumed the book she wrote with her famous writer mom would be just as great but... It wasn't. Not sure if my personal writing tastes have changed or if the cutesy self-dep......more

Goodreads review by Wealhtheow

The story of how a woman enlisted her mother's help in planning her wedding, and what lessons they learned along the way. Told in a cutesy style that I did not like at all, but I'm sure someone else with different taste would appreciate this lightweight, light-hearted book.......more

Goodreads review by Susan

Not what I thought it was going to be. Mom does a chapter, daughter does a chapter - real advice on planning a wedding from their experience doing the daughter's wedding. Think they had a lot more money than most of us. I expected it to be funny and it wasn't really. Had a hard time finishing it.......more
