Quick easy read-great "inbetween books" book. Finished it in just a couple hours. Made me very grateful that I made it through my bridesmaid experience still friends with my best friend!

Definitely a fun read while I'm in the middle of planning my own wedding. Makes me extremely grateful for my beautifully wonderful bridesmaids and makes me feel good that I'm not being a bridezilla (at least I hope I'm not, I'm doing my best!). Lots of great stories, some are a sweet testament to sisterhood and friendship, while others are horror stories of girls who need a reality check. They're all entertaining though!

It was just ok. Funny in some places, sad in others. I usually enjoy collections of essay, but the subject Got old really quick for me. I also thought it would be fun to give to my sister after the wedding, but reading some of the sadder stories, I don't know if that's the best idea ...

I enjoyed this book, however I didn’t appreciate all the different opinions on what a marriage should be. This book had a lot of opinions and beliefs I don’t share. I enjoyed the wedding commentary since I’m getting married at the end of the summer, but I expected more traditional set ups.

I love weddings and I write for a bridal magazine so this was a super fun read. However, I found it hilarious that this frothy cupcake of a book was edited by the same person who wrote A Little Life.
