Summary: French readers will love it.
Review: Gaby deLourdes-Renoir reviews(a Top-10 Amazon.com reviewer) made us love Martha Steward books. "Wedding" is full of extraordinary pictures. You just dream you were there! Will your daughter ever know such beautiful moments? Martha Steward helps you to think "yes" as an answer. Just because she explains you how to cut into small pieces a huge "wedding-cake" (the wedding party you will have to organize). Chapters are divided into specific subjects that can easily be handled by one specific responsible in your family. In the "lightning" chapter, you will discover through artistic (and useful) pictures how to create a cheap impressive range of lights in the garden with yellow paper bags and ordinary candles. All chapters include bright ideas for beautiful people (like you and me...). I love books that make me feel "I can do it". Especially when they show me beautiful people a a help in the identification process.

Summary: Ideas for every budget !
Review: I always manage to find some idea in all of Martha Stewart's books that I can make my own. I have used the wedding books to make both anniversary and wedding cakes and find the instructions to be detailed and easy to follow. Everyone raves about my chocolate cake with chocolate curls, both taken from the instructions for the groom's cake. My son is getting married soon and we have kept the wedding costs for below $3000.00, including the caterer, by using many of the ideas I have gotten from this book!

Summary: Dated like her picture on the cover - Avoid
Review: I bought this at a garage sale for $2.00. Our neighbor's daughter was getting married but the book was not very good. The ideas are very dated. If you want to plan a 1970s style wedding and want to spend a lot of money for a picture of Martha when she was young and not grossly overweight than this is your book.

Summary: Martha Stewart Weddings
Review: I was very disappointed with this particular book. I was looking forward to a book with many wedding ideas, however, this book is less of ideas and more on weddings meanings and tradition. The ideas it does share are very out-of-date.

Summary: Overpriced, old book.
Review: This book was written in the EARLY 80's - and for a 90's bride, it is totally outdated. Don't bother spending money on this one until she writes an updated version, which hopefully should be expected soon. With Martha's popularity, you would think she wouldn't rely on this book to lead her into the 90's. Buy Colin Cowie or Beverly Clark instead.

Summary: Wonderfully illustrated, ideas for all budget levels!
Review: This coffee-table type book had beautiful illustrations and good ideas if you're in the market for one of those $100,000+ weddings, but if you're a "real" person planning a wedding on a budget, don't bother consulting Martha!
