Summary: Good but you can do better...
Review: ...researching on your own. I bought this book because I'm a travel agent, want to evetually get marrried away, and am always interested in what others suggest to clients.Honestly, I found the book an "ok" source of info. Sadly, I ended up wondering where the couple involved in the book would get married next and what they would wear. I am not opposed to destination wedding guidebooks, but this one could be a bit more interesting.

Summary: Weddings made Simple!
Review: Beyond Vegas is the best book for uncovering and discovering non-traditional wedding ideas. The extensive research that Tabb and Silverstein have done on the subject simplifies an otherwise overwhelming event! The book is well-written and provides relevant and useful information such as, price ranges, obtaining a marriage license, actual phone numbers, accomodations, and activities. Beyond Vegas is a great book to buy if you're planning a wedding or know someone who needs a little wedding guidence!

Summary: Much needed
Review: I saw a big stack of these books at our local book store and picked it up, because my fiance and I have been really struggling with our wedding plans. He's getting really grumpy and I'm just tired. It was fun to look through this book and all the fun pictures of cool places to go. We're going to have a regular wedding with lots people and cake but I bought this anyway. Hey, I can fantasize, can't I? I think Lisa and Sam are a riot. I loved reading about their adventures in places like Kenya. They have a real holesom way of apeaking and I liked that.

Summary: Perfect gift for brides-to-be!
Review: I wish I'd read this book before planning my own overblown wedding. It's entertaining to read, thorough, and makes eloping sound simple, romantic and totally doable. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?

Summary: The best eloping book out there
Review: If you are considering eloping, I highly recommend that you get your hands on a copy of Beyond Vegas. It is the best book that is out there on the subject. Though it may be more popular if the title reflected better what it was about. I bought both this book and Let's Elope when planning our escape from a typical wedding. Let's Elope can get you excited about the idea of eloping, but does not really provide much good information on how you would actually go about planning an event in any of the countries in which you might be interested. Beyond Vegas actually gives you the details you need to plan your wedding (elopment) in 25 countries, and we actually used this information to plan our wedding in Scotland. The authors actually got married in all of the destinations discussed in their book, and give all the pointers you need, not just what can be found on the official country registrar web sites.

Summary: We got married in Scotland because of this book!
Review: My fiance and I dreamt about having a small wedding in Europe with a few close friends and family, but we didn't know where, and we had no idea what would be involved. After reading this book, we fell in love with the idea of getting married in Scotland. The book got us on the right track for researching it and made us realize that getting married there would definitely be possible and feasible. This book gives a great overview of the logistics of getting married in various countries...it even rates the countries in terms of the difficulty of getting married there if you are a U.S. citizen. It is a great starting point if you are thinking of getting married in another country.

Summary: Beyond Vegas
Review: This is the BEST wedding planning book around, with incredible descriptions of exotic places and cultures. In fact, I recommend it to people who don't even plan to get married, but just want to know what's out there. Great read.
