Book Description
Smiles and tears of joy stream down her face as the bride is escorted down the aisle on her wedding day. This is where heart-felt vows are exchanged witnessed by friends and families, and where couples are well on their way to their "Happily Ever After." Well, we can dream, can't we? Professional Wedding Planners, JoAnn Moore and Mindy Marino have planned hundreds of successful and fabulous weddings. They have worked with engaged couples, mothers and fathers of couples, overzealous guests (some invited and some not) and some church officials that forced head scratching challenges, off the charts crazy behavior but leaving a wake of humor behind. With large sums of money spent, the coming together of families who might be meeting for the first time, and high expectations for perfection, it's as close to the Bermuda Triangle as you might want to get. Enjoy the experiences and stories of these professional wedding planners as they take you on a journey of fabulous, funny and sometimes unbelievable events. The book, based on actual events, will take you down the aisle in style, tradition and with laughter at things that go wrong. Somehow, they always seem to save the day from disaster in spite of the interactions with their odd and quirky clients and guests. In the end, and despite the mishaps, they always found the humor and the joy in the day of celebration when two people come together as husband and wife.

Wedding Toasts I'll Never Give
Author: Ada Calhoun
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393254801
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 117
Book Description
Seven essays celebrating the beauty of the imperfect marriage. We hear plenty about whether or not to get married, but much less about what it takes to stay married. Clichés around marriage—eternal bliss, domestic harmony, soul mates—leave out the real stuff. After marriage you may still want to sleep with other people. Sometimes your partner will bore the hell out of you. And when stuck paying for your spouse’s mistakes, you might miss being single. In Wedding Toasts I’ll Never Give, Ada Calhoun presents an unflinching but also loving portrait of her own marriage, opening a long-overdue conversation about the institution as it truly is: not the happy ending of a love story or a relic doomed by high divorce rates, but the beginning of a challenging new chapter of which “the first twenty years are the hardest.” Calhoun’s funny, poignant personal essays explore the bedrooms of modern coupledom for a nuanced discussion of infidelity, existential anxiety, and the many other obstacles to staying together. Both realistic and openhearted, Wedding Toasts I’ll Never Give offers a refreshing new way to think about marriage as a brave, tough, creative decision to stay with another person for the rest of your life. “What a burden,” Calhoun calls marriage, “and what a gift.”

Always a Bridesmaid (For Hire)
Author: Jen Glantz
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 150113907X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
In the tradition of Sloane Crosley, Mindy Kaling, and Katie Heaney, a hilarious and insightful memoir about one New York City millennial’s journey to find herself, her dream career, and true love, all while juggling a truly unique job as the world’s only professional bridesmaid. After moving to New York City in her mid-twenties to pursue her dream of writing—and not living on the “Upper East Side” of her parents’ house anymore—Jen Glantz looked forward to a future of happy hours and Sunday brunches with her besties. What she got instead were a string of phone calls that began with, “Jen, I have something exciting to tell you!” and ended with, “I’d be honored if you would be my bridesmaid.” At first she was delighted, but it wasn’t long before she realized two things: all of her assets were tied up in bridesmaid dresses, and she herself was no closer to finding The One. She couldn't do much about the second thing (though her mother would beg to differ), but she could about the first. One (slightly tipsy) night, Jen posted an ad on Craigslist advertising her services as a professional bridesmaid. When she woke up the next morning, it had gone viral. What began as a half-joke suddenly turned into a lifetime of adventure for Jen–and more insight into the meaning of love than she was getting from OKCupid—as she walked down the aisle at stranger after stranger’s wedding. Fresh, funny, and surprisingly sweet, Always a Bridesmaid (For Hire) is an entertaining reminder that even if you don’t have everything together, you can still be a total boss—or, at the very least, a BFF to another girl in need.
