Thanks to this book, my fiancee is SANE!!
12 Jan 2001
Format:Hardcover
When my soon-to-be got this book, I yawned and prayed that the author had sane advice because I haven't had fun since I proposed. Before the book we were arguing about the dumbest things, like what color the organist's shirt should be for pictures! The organist could have been nude for all I cared.
L.W. Carrigan's book drastically changed my fiancee's outlook that I was actually reading the book between football games! And it was really good stuff. I got a few chuckles out of it but of course I didn't tell you-know-who that I even lifted the book. I just said, "Geez, another book?" And she went on and on about how she just was so sorry for acting so stupid to me and our families. She said she was getting too nervous about the wrong things and that Lara's book put things into perspective for her. THANK YOU LARA...I'd like a shot at writing the rebuttal book -- "Hey Guys! Don't Forget to Attach Carrigan's Book to The Ring" with salutations to your awesome book. Now, I know my wife-to-be hasn't gone off the deep end thanks to your good vibe. Peace...

Much more traditional than you'd think...
12 Jun 2003
Format:Paperback
The cover and the title of this book imply a funny, light-hearted, less-tradtional approach to the adventure/ordeal of planning a wedding. In truth, other than stressing the importance of doing what you want, rather than what you're being told you *should* want, this book is very traditional in its advice and approach. While the author does mention a few less traditional weddings in passing (mentioning marrying while skydiving numerous times), none of her advice is geared toward anyone actually taking one of these paths. Also, she seems to assume that every reader has the average $20,000 to spend on a wedding. One would think that a "best friend" might have had a few cost-cutting hints here or there. I give this book only two stars because it does not live up to its appearance. It's perfectly good for those of you having a traditional wedding; just make sure you have lots of money to spend if you're going to follow the advice.

Everyone needs a "Girlfriend" at a time like this
14 Aug 2001
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
My man and I are planning our wedding and I am a wreck. This book made me laugh and think and get really excited. I recommend it to anyone that is planning a wedding, especially if you don't have a lot of friends who have planned weddings recently. Lara gives great advice and backs it up with ideas and antecdotes. A must read!
