Getting Hitched

Getting Hitched bypasses the confetti and taffeta to bring you the only book you will need when planning your big day. Written by a unique female/male team, it addresses both the burning questions of every bride-to-be and the smoldering fears of every potential groom. In classic Rough Guides style, it sidesteps the obvious and the clichéd to bring you useful tips and exciting wedding day ideas. Features include: Budget tips: where to skimp and where to splurge, along with DIY options that won't end in disaster. / The ceremony: tailoring the occasion to fit your own vision. / The people: choosing your bridal party, and whittling down the guest list. / Alternative weddings: ideas for something genuinely different, from mariachi bands to outlandish venues. / Emotional crises: weathering the wedding-planning storms, from cold feet to stroppy bridesmaids. / Playlists and music ideas for ceremony, reception and wedding night. Warning: This book is NOT for the aspiring bridezilla.
