The wedding shelf at any bookstore is packed with guides that tell brides how to have standard-issue, big-budget weddings. And this seems to be exactly what every bride wants...except that it's not. Ultimately, couples want a joyful wedding, not a stressful one. In A Practical Wedding, Meg Keene gives the guidance and creative ideas that couples need to plan a simpler dream wedding--without going broke or crazy in the process. In her engaging, irreverent style, Keene encourages readers to rethink their approach since they won't likely reflect on how their wedding looked, but rather how it felt. From communicating with your family to choosing a venue--and complete with advice from "Team Practical" brides-- A Practical Weddingis an all-in-one planner for hosting your wedding with grace and style.
