I found the book inspiring. It's a must-have read for anyone about to start planning a wedding big or small. It makes the daunting job of planning a wedding much easier!!

There are loads of essential tips that all brides and grooms should read before they even start planning their wedding, including how not to get emotionally involved in the preparation. As you say, 'leave your emotions at home' in any discussion where money is involved!

The lists of things to negotiate on for each supplier are really handy. With the few vendors I've spoken to, I've just accepted the price they printed and handed over the deposit. I now know that I don't have to accept the price they say. I also appreciate that the finer points of negotiation are as much about building a relationship over time to get more out of the supplier as it is about simply asking for money off.

I especially liked the part on understanding how the industry works and some of the tricks people may use to get more money out of you. That was really helpful!

Kelly, Bride-to-be, June 2009

After reading this book, I saved £1,000 on my wedding venue, simply by asking! I wouldn't have been able to do it without reading the book, so thanks!

What a fantastic book! Nicola, congratulations on an incredibly well researched, positive and honestly written book. What I most love about it, is that it not only shows brides-to-be how and where they can save money but, more importantly, how they can achieve this whilst still maintaining a positive relationship with their suppliers; for me this balance is absolutely critical and one of the most important messages in your book.

No matter how large or small your budget or whether you are getting married at home or abroad, Negotiate Your Way To A Cheap Wedding is filled with lots of excellent advice and I would definitely recommend reading it to ensure you have the perfect wedding at the right price.

Speaking as a wedding vendor, I believe Negotiate Your Way to a Cheap Wedding gives excellent advice to brides wanting to save money on their bridal budget.

From reception venues to the wedding florals, there is always room for negotiations when the wedding couple does their homework and plans carefully before approaching the vendors. This book gives invaluable advice on how to do that!

This book has saved us thousands. It's taught us so much about how we can negotiate with wedding vendors easily. We've managed to save over £2000 on our reception costs! Best of all, it was so easy.

Not only that, but we've used the tips and techniques outside of our wedding planning as well! They're skills you can use with any purchase!

Thanks so much, it's the best wedding book we've ever bought!

James, Groom, August 2008
