The ultimate guide to a planning personal and meaningful day, with hundreds of ideas and beautiful photographs from real weddings The secret to planning a deeply personal and meaningful wedding has nothing to do with budget. It’s about creating a celebration that reflects a couple’s core values. Translating those values is the work of Modern Wedding , an information-filled guide with hundreds of creative ideas and beautiful, inspiring photographs for readers to look at and say, “This feels like us.” The book unpacks every element of a wedding—stationery, attire, seating plans, flowers and tablescapes, food and drink, gifts—with examples that will appeal to couples who care about how things are made but are not overly influenced by trends. The emphasis is on natural surroundings, seasonal flowers and food, modern dresses, minimalist ceremony structures, and naked cakes. Photographs of real weddings—“case studies” like a destination fete in Tuscany, a house party in Brooklyn, and a New Agey revel in Kauai—show how all the pieces can come together into a unique and expressive whole. Extensive practical information and resources give readers access to all the help they need for their own unique celebration. Review: Super book for the bride - I love this book. The book has so much information. Review: Have the wedding of your dreams. - This is a beautiful book and will be very helpful for planning a beautiful and personal wedding day.

Pretentious, and out of touch
This book is completely out of touch with reality. The author introduces the book by saying that thankfully people are shifting away from mass produced weddings that people can hardly afford… then goes on to recommend manolo blahnik and Jimmy Choo shoes. She recommends staying away from “bridesmaid’s fashion lines altogether, due to poor quality and lack of originality” and to instead stick with designer dresses. She recommends starting a workout routine 6 months before the wedding (don’t want to be fat on your wedding day!). A gift suggestion for the groom is a Rolex Submariner watch (that’s a $9k watch). Also problematic is that almost all of the people photographed in this book are white, thin, heterosexual, and in their 20’s-30’s. There is nothing “modern” about these weddings. They are simply the weddings of the top 5% in this country (most wealthy and privileged). If you plan to pay $75k or more for your wedding this may be the book for you. It wasn’t for me.
