Rubbish American Wedding eBooks
September 1st, 2008 by Karen WhiteWe have a special download for you today. But please read ALL of this post before you download it (the link is at the bottom of the post)… otherwise it might get a bit confusing 
You know, we’re not professional wedding planners or anything, but we’ve just got married and been through the whole experience. We know what’s it like to organize a wedding and we also know what it’s like to deal with wedding suppliers and vendors.
With the benefit of experience, hindsight and a little further research, we’re now in a position to help YOU avoid some of the pitfalls so you can reduce the cost of your wedding without compromising on quality by employing the wedding budget strategies we have discovered.
We’re sensitive to the fact that people are in different positions with respect to the size of their budget, the size of their family etc. And we’re not looking to say do this, do that, don’t do this. We’re looking to outline winning STRATEGIES that anyone can employ to save money / maximize the budget without compromising on quality.
We’re definitely not talking about the stuff you get in some of these rubbish American eBooks you see that say they that say they can save you thousands of dollars… yes that’s right dollars! Most of the save-money-on-your-wedding stuff that we came across while planning our wedding (and we bought and read them all) was American.
In the UK, we don’t tend to do rehearsal dinners or out-of-towner dinners or themed wedding or any of that kind of stuff. And we also don’t have the luxury of being able to get married anywhere we want to (which is a key tip in these books that simply does not apply in the UK). So things are just different in the UK. These American books are also crammed full of useless padding like “make sure to put plenty of ice cubes in drinks to save on the amount of beverage you need for a full glass” – no-one we know of is ever actually going to do that!
To prove our point, we’re going to give you - FOR FREE - one of the American cost-saving eBooks we’re talking about. We actually bought the distribution rights to one of these books simply so that we could give it away to you… just so you can see for yourself that they are largely irrelevant for people in the UK and so you don’t waste your money on them (we’ve seen this very same book selling for close to $40).

As always, leave us some comments below and let us know whether or not you agree that these American eBooks are rubbish.
Cheers,
Martin & Karen

Jo Says:I agree, I’ve seen a few of these e-books, and there isn’t much that’s really useful for someone getting married in the UK. They make for an entertaining read though!
Diana Says:Thankyou! I saw this book while I was researching weddings, and I was going to buy it, but now I’m glad I didn’t waste my money!
Alison Says:There are some really bizarre ideas in that book! None of which I would ever use!
Emma Says:This does seem very specifically tailored to the American wedding market, not really very useful.
Hannah Says:Not very helpful, but quite fun to read!
Sara Says:It’s more like a book about how NOT to plan a wedding!
Mandy Says:There are some good ideas in there, but you have to read through all the rubbish to find them!
Fiona Says:This book should be called “DIY Weddings”.
Kim Says:I particularly like the suggestion of goldfish bowls with actual fish in them as table centrepieces!!
Samantha Says:Very American!
Amy Says:I agree! Very cheesy!
Mel Says:Definitely different…but worth a read, if only to make sure you don’t get it wrong.
zoe Says:I started to read the ebook i got to page 11 and then started to get bored. There is nothing in it to actually help with the planning of your wedding
