Description
YOUR Big Day is a hysterical spoof of the stressful (and sometimes silly) things a bride encounters when planning her BIG DAY. Comedian Laura Willcox takes on the voice of an outrageously overbearing wedding planner, offering guidance on all aspects of nuptial bliss-from the proposal (preferably with a professional photographer lurking in the bushes to capture the exact moment) to the honeymoon. This humorously illustrated guide offers over-the-top "advice" for every wedding-related detail, whether it's dreaming up the perfect wedding-weekend hashtag, creating an outrageous gift registry to flaunt your fabulous lifestyle, or strategically planning to avoid the unfortunates who didn't make the guest list. Laura Willcox's fresh take on all things bridal turns tradition on its head and will have you laughing your way down the aisle and reading passages out loud to your engaged (and married) friends.
Reviews / Votes
"While I AM BRIDE may be the first and only bridal preparation guide I've ever read, it is hands down the best. If I could travel back in time to 2006 when I proposed to my future wife, I would bring I AM BRIDE back with me and give it to her along with the engagement ring. Unfortunately, the consensus of the physics community is that time travel will never be possible. I have looked into it, and apparently the science on the matter is very sound. The point is, it's a great book." * Dan Powell, executive producer of Inside Amy Schumer * Laura Willcox's I AM BRIDE perfectly mocks the absurd wedding-planning industry. Whether you're having a big wedding to prove something to your ex, or a small wedding to make your loved ones feel excluded, this book will make you laugh through the overwhelming planning process. * Lauren Lapkus * "As a recently married woman, I highly recommend I AM BRIDE. It is funny, charming and the perfect gift for any soon to be Mrs. Maybe if I had had this book while planning my own wedding, I would have been less of a monster bitch and wouldn't have thrown a chiavari chair at my flower girl." * Tracey Wigfield, creator of NBC's Great News, writer The Mindy Project * "Great gift for anyone you know who's about to get married, or any who wants to pretend like they are!" * Sasheer Zamata, Saturday Night Live *More details
