A good wedding planning book with lots of great pictures and ideas for big-to-small details. Several different styles of weddings from rustic to classic to elegant.

I would probably pick this up again when I actually get ready to start actually doing something to actually get married.

I got what I wanted in this book in that the book features many photos of each wedding provided. The photos are gorgeous and I appreciated the zoom-in on the many unique details.

The downside is that the DIY projects listed in the end are pretty damn terrible. For being a book about "unforgettable" celebrations, most of the weddings shown were so basic and interchangeable. This book did nothing to inspire me. I rented it from the library so I'm not upset, but if I spent the cover price on the I got what I wanted in this book in that the book features many photos of each wedding provided.

Coming into this wedding planning thing with little to no ideas, I appreciated this book helping me articulate what I wanted.
The proofreading left a little to be desired. But hey, nobody's perfect.
If you want a breakdown and a crystallization of what you liked from your Pinterest board and why, this book is for you.
It's all about the pictures though. Don't come in here looking for deep advice on marriage and commitment.
This book is exactly what it claims to be -- styled pretty.

Because I’m the kind of person who reads a book like this cover to cover.

A good overview of different ideas and pictures with some DIY tips and tricks.

Style Me Pretty Weddings is a beautiful book, and I do mean beautiful! Filled with pages of stunning pictures and wonderful advice, I wish I had gotten this book at the beginning of my engagement instead of towards the end. I has started to get a little weary with wedding planning and the semi-constant headache that comes with it, but Style Me Pretty Weddings helped me re-focus on what really matters on my wedding day—celebrating my marriage to my wonderful fiancé.

Even though Style Me Pretty Style Me Pretty Weddings is a beautiful book, and I do mean beautiful! Filled with pages of stunning pictures and wonderful advice, I wish I had gotten this book at the beginning of my engagement instead of towards the end. I has started to get a little weary with wedding planning and the semi-constant headache that comes with it, but Style Me Pretty Weddings helped me re-focus on what really matters on my wedding day—celebrating my marriage to my wonderful fiancé.

Even though Style Me Pretty focuses on all of the beautiful details from the wedding, it emphasizes the couple’s relationship. What makes a Style Me Pretty wedding different from all of the weddings you see in magazines is the personal touches. Whether it’s matching odd-ball shoes or a very whimsical and untraditional detail, a Style Me Pretty wedding expresses those details that are unique to the couple.

Reading all of the advice from real brides and looking at all of the pretty pictures of couples who were so happy just to be spending the day together got me excited about the wedding again! Despite all of the wedding guest list headaches, occasional arguments, exciting moments, and road bumps in a few months I will be happily married to the man I have spent a fabulous six years with and I can’t wait to incorporate details that are special to us into our wedding day.

Reading all of the fantastic advice from brides and looking at all of the beautiful awe-inspiring images made me so excited about planning the wedding! I highly recommend getting this book the moment you get engaged since it is really helpful about the planning process from beginning to end. ...more

In late winter 2008, we girls helped host a wedding show and did a lot of studying about weddings! This winter I was feeling reminiscent of those fun months, and checked out a few new wedding idea books. I highly recommend this one! It is packed with beautiful ideas! Many are beyond a normal person's budget, yet there are so many ideas that even the most frugal bride can gain some valuable ideas from it.

This was...more of the same. While the layout and design is in a great format for browsing, the content is the same as every.other.wedding.book.

I was disappointed.

If you are a traditional traditional bride looking for something "different" or "creative" this might work for you, but if you actually ARE different and creative, look elsewhere.

I wanted to rate this book and three and a half but not a four.

Not that I am planning a wedding anytime soon, there are a few creative, cost effective ideas here. Everything is very safe, neat and feminine, not every brides taste. Very few cake ideas.

Candid pictures of couples of their day. I would say these ideas are better suited for a party.

Style Me Pretty Weddings was visually amazing. I liked it because it described the different “types” of weddings, and it allowed me to pinpoint that I am throwing a “whimsical” wedding. This is also one of my favorite inspiration sites.

Not engaged, not even close to marriage but I saw this in my library. So many pictures. So many things to do for a wedding. I can't even imagine, so it's good I'm no where near planning a wedding as I type this. Pretty interesting ideas though.

Not exactly what I expected but quaint. It is more of a picture book for weddings.

For all the talk of unique details, there are not that many of those to be seen in this book. Just lots of the same generic stuff everyone puts into weddings.

Gorgeous! The pictures are amazing, and I love how the book is broken down into "couple styles". I know what book I'll be referencing when I get married.
