Indespensible Resource for New Planners! Great Reference for Experienced Planners! May 21, 2008

I am so impressed with how thorough and well-written this book is. It is phenomenal. I wish I'd had it when I first started out. It's much better than many of the courses offered. Now it serves me very well for training interns!
The best out there! May 1, 2008

As a newcomer in the industry, I've read just about every Wedding / Event Planning resource there is. This is, hands down, the best yet. What I admired most about the book was its academic approach to the field as it reads like a college level textbook.
I recommend it to anyone looking to break into the business of event / wedding planning. It is the only book you need!
Excellent Resource February 28, 2008

This is an excellent, indepth resource book if you are thinking of going into wedding consulting. It not only covers every topic, but it also gives examples from different cultures. The case studies are an added bonus, and the "what would you do" scenarios make you think out a plan before something like that actually happens to you.
Hands Down, the best Wedding Planning & Management Book! You won't be disappointed! May 2, 2007

I recently purchased Wedding Planning and Management: Consultancy for Diverse Clients. I have to say that I am truly impressed with the books content. Over the past years I have purchased every wedding planning & business start-up book imaginable. This book is the only book you will need to not only plan a wedding, but also start and run a wedding management business. This book covers every aspect of the wedding, wedding planning industry, and much much more. As a former student, and now the business owner of Exceeding Expectations Wedding & Event Management Company, this book is my number one resource for running my event planning business, and number one reference guide to all things related to weddings. From the charts, case scenarios (which I absolutely love!), photos and everything in between, the book is very well written and put together. The authors truly did an amazing job, you won't be disappointed! Money well spent! Congratulations on a job well done!
