Product Description

Marriages are made in heaven - but weddings are made in hell ... What is it about getting married that can turn a sophisticated, level-headed woman into an obsessed wreck? That's what Amy wonders as she watches her girlfriends nosedive into bridal dementia: dropping a hundred I.Q. points, losing all fashion sense, and dramatically increasing their ability to cry. Amy will never let that happen to her! But when her boyfriend unexpectedly drops to one knee in the popcorn queue she can't help but say yes. And before she knows it, she too has been struck by the madness. Can Amy overcome her mania? Regain her senses? Stop agonising over the perfect white satin pump in time to get the wedding day of her dreams? Or will it all go horribly, wincingly, hilariously wrong?

Customer Reviews

For any girl who's been told she's not the marrying type
Having just got engaged myself I felt as though I could totally relate to the central character in the book and her never ending plight to find the perfect wedding shoes and plan the perfect day (on a budget). From start to finish the book is hillarious from the dilemma over the maid of honour through to Bunny the invite printer. The author writes with such humour and honesty that the book is an absolute must for anyone about to get married and even more so for those who think they never will.

Sassy, self-deprecating and smart
I found this book on my girlfriend's shelf and picked it up out of idle curiosity. Three days later I put it down with a contented sigh. Amy, the Mad Bride, is a wonderful character, very New York, very vital and the story Laura Wolf weaves around her is beautifully constructed. Always believable and always funny, this is one of the best books I've read for a long time.
