Weddings are big business these days, and if you don't keep your wits about you, you could do some serious financial damage.  To help you through the planning process, Kimberly Schlegel Whitman's beautiful workbook will make things so much simpler, not to mention neat and contained.  She covers Getting Started; Budget; Ceremony Site/Reception Site; The Bride; Flowers & Decor; Cakes & Catering; Wedding Party; Invitations; Photography & Videography; Registry; Honeymoon; Transportation, and Big Day Schedule.  Phew!  To get through all of that you have to be organised.  This workbook starts off with the Countdown, and offers check boxes to tick off as you go and as the excitement builds.  Can you imagine the relief/excitement when there are only a few boxes left?  The tab dividers have convenient pockets for contacts, business cards, tear sheets, etc., so that everything will be to hand.  The different sections have spaces handy for contact details and notes you can fill in so you won't overlook any detail.  There are also useful tips throughout from someone who's been there and done that.  Also featured on the tabbed dividers are gorgeous wedding photos — some for inspiration and others to admire.  (Look at the fantastic cake and table!)  I like the shot list for the photographer, and you can add to the list if what you'd like is not included.

Conclusion - An extremely useful thing to have when planning a wedding.  It would also make a great gift to any bride-to-be.
