Publisher's summary
Wedding Planning for the Busy Feminist is filled with practical, funny advice from real brides, grooms, and vendors about how to plan your dream wedding on a budget. It's also an empowering survival guide that examines how modern women feel conflicted about outdated traditions and expensive social media fantasies but kinda want the perfect wedding anyway.
With tons of tips, interviews, and funny stories, the book is about everything from dress shopping and confusing caterer gratuities to Pinterest anxiety and managing your partner's role in the process. Wedding planning can be stressful, so I'm here to make it easier - with advice like "nothing sexes up a ceremony like a hot usher" and true stories about what to do when your Maid of Honor drops out because of WrestleMania.
The book dives into wedding planning, wedding budgets, dresses, wedding timelines, family drama, self-care, elopements, DIY decor, receptions, ceremonies, vows, speeches, changing your name, bachelor parties and bachelorette parties, photographers, themes, hashtags, favors, and more.
I won't push you to include or exclude any particular tradition - my mantra is "you do you!"

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 653
A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Story4 out of 5 stars 197
Alice's journey begins as all good journeys do: hitting on the sales guy at REI. After a tumultuous breakup, a quick career transition, family upheaval, and a sobriety journey that didn't fix her life quite as much as she expected it to, Alice decides that the only way to solve all her problems is to hike the Pacific Crest Trail. But as she begins preparing for the months-long quest, she realizes the answers she's seeking might not be on top of a snow-covered mountain. Especially since she just learned there was snow in California.

Helpful and entertaining!
This book was so helpful and very funny! Lots of tips for people planning all kinds of weddings - I liked the stuff about how to save money and plan on a budget. Also, when you're in the thick of wedding planning, it's really great to be able to laugh at all the craziness. The narrator was also upbeat and easy to listen to and understand.

This book gave me a great perspective on weddings
Planning a wedding is chaos! It's exciting, but also overwhelming. Really enjoyed the humorous yet also informative info the book provided. The author's perspective is unique and the examples are relatable. The narration makes it a quick listen for anyone who is about to dive into wedding world! I would recommend and will purchase as an engagement present for many friends in the future.

Hard copy of the book would be better
Some information in the book is in list format. It was hard to follow everything that was being listed with how fast the narrator spoke. I would have preferred a hard copy of this book.

Mostly wedding planning lists
It’s mostly a serious wedding planning checklists. They’re useful, but I expected a light hearted, funny book about breaking wedding traditions. Still good overall, I don’t regret buying.

Too conformist
I found Stone Fox Bride to be more what I was seeking in a planning book. This book adheres too much to tradition and isn’t helpful if you are interested in planning a wedding that is at all different than what the wedding industry/complex pushes.
