Summary: Wonderful resource
Review: This book is simple and elegant - you can judge it by its cover. It takes the wedding planning process step-by-step, helping you decide each aspect of your wedding by offering the full range of choices, down to veil styles. The vendor questions were extremely helpful, and due to the color and size of this book I did not feel silly taking it with me to appointments. It has adequate space to write but is more of a workbook style, with lists and notes throughout instead of all in one place. I did not use this book all the way through my engagement because I needed more detailed, personalized information. It was excellent for planning. It was definitely our number one resource for etiquette and formality questions.

Summary: Better than a hired consultant
Review: This is an excellent wedding planner. Its a good balance of etiquette, advice, information and a planning workbook. The only drawback was that I could not record the complete guest list in the planner itself, but considering how often my guest list changed during planning this was not such a bad thing. The organization is excellent - everything you need to know about flowers plus space for your notes is in one place so you don't have to flip back and forth when you're at the florist. If you want the most proper wedding, this book will tell you how. If you want something less formal, this is still the best book out there.
