Once couples decide to say "I do" there are dozens and dozens of decisions to be made. It's hard to know where to begin and even more difficult to fit all the dozens of details together into one wonderful event. Thankfully Maria McBride-Mellinger, author of acclaimed bridal books, stylishly illustrates just how to create a dreamy reception that will be forever memorable.
The Perfect Wedding Reception features exquisite wedding celebrations designed by Maria McBride-Mellinger that capture the magic of each season in refreshing, contemporary style. The nuptial adventure begins in a formal spring garden but soon its off to a beach front for a fanciful summer wedding, to a revolutionary era stone barn for a rustic fall wedding and finally to a gracious country home for a candle lit winter wedding feast.
Glorious photos of each location, flowers, menu selections, table details, centerpieces, bouquets, invitations, wedding cakes and favors tell the story of each wedding with helpful tips and most importantly McBride-Mellinger's favorite resources from around the country that will actually help bring your wedding reception to life.
Whatever season you choose to marry Maria McBride-Mellinger offers delightful flourishes to tempt every couple as they plan the party of their lives and create memories meant to last a lifetime.

The Perfect Wedding Reception: Stylish Ideas For Every Season Review |
|
I'm in the early stages of planning my wedding and in order to sate my ravenous desire for ideas, I've taken to borrowing a TON of wedding books from my University's library. This book was among them.
I was very excited to read this book because of the title and the cover art, but having looked through it I can safely say that this book proves the rule that you should NOT judge a book by its cover (or title on that cover). As a library rental, it was fine. Had I spent money on it, however, I would have been PISSED at what I got. Why? First, the book only shows photos from 4 weddings, one for each season. So if you know, like me, that you want to be married in the fall, you've got 1 section of the book from which to draw visual inspiration. And within that quarter of the book, there is only 1 single wedding. That, in itself, is a bit of a let-down. The thing that REALLY got me, though, was that the last 1/3 to 1/2 of the book is devoted to credits, acknowledgments, and a huge list of the author's favorite vendors (only useful if you live in NYC or CA because almost all of them are from those areas). I'm not exaggerating here, either. Pages 236-351 are taken up by these things. When I reached this point in the book, I thought to myself "You have GOT to be kidding me... There must be more pictures and ideas in here!". Alas, no. Just one endless list of names and phone numbers. Please, fellow brides-to-be (or friends and family thereof), do NOT spend your money on this book! Get it from a library or borrow from a friend, skim through it, and move on. NOT WORTH THE MONEY! |

The Not So Perfect Wedding Reception - |
The Perfect Wedding Reception: Stylish Ideas For Every Season Review |

I truly was looking forward to getting this book to help me plan my winter wedding reception. I was very disappointed in what i received. This book is unrealistic for DIY brides. |

The Perfect Wedding Reception: Stylish Ideas For Every Season Review |
|
The weddings photographed in this book are really over-the-top (dollar). Which is not to say they aren't fun to look at and incredibly imaginative and beautiful. While the average bride doesn't spend money on 40 custom covered silk seat cushions to match the custom tent shading the cake, the professional process the designers went through thinking out the "look" of each wedding is very useful. It taught me to stop seeing every choice by itself and start visualizing our upcoming event as a whole concept. Fun for the ideas and a peek into how the super rich get married. |

Buy a bridal mag instead -  |
The Perfect Wedding Reception: Stylish Ideas For Every Season Review |
|
There are limited ideas and since trends change from season to season you are better off buying a bridal magazine. If you are looking for help planning a wedding there are better sources online. Watching cable television can give you ideas and save you some money; money that you can actually use for the wedding reception. |
