This is a good book if you live in larger areas. Rural areas do not apply to most of the book. The best tip however was the detail about David's Bridal and their lack of customer service. Very true!

What made me purchase this book was the little blurb "AS SEEN ON OPRAH" and of course that hooked me right away. This little book is full of tips and advice on how to save money on your wedding. The font is kind of small and the book is hard to keep open for reading one-handed, but otherwise really good. I used a lot of eBay for my wedding, and this book was one of my inspirations to write my own wedding planning book about how to shop eBay for your wedding! =)
