Customer Review: Internet searches are more useful

This book was worthless. I agree with the reviewer who said it was nothing more than a condensed version of the Yellow Pages for wedding vendors in the Sonoma and Napa areas. There were more ads than information and what was there was not organized well. I don't think they used an editor because there were a great deal of mistakes (I know this may not bother many people but when you spend money on a book, you shouldn't feel like you're reading a rough draft). I found many more locations just by using search engines and we ended up using a great resort that wasn't listed in the book. The only thing that I found it useful for was seeing if locations I found on the internet that just so happened to be in the book had in-house catering and how many guests they could accommodate, but I wouldn't trust that that information is accurate.

Customer Review: A bunch of advertisements, not enough information

If this is ANYTHING like the last edition, this book was about as helpful as the yellow pages and a few brief articles on wedding planning. The information was spotty and incomplete for many locations and there weren't that many locations. I believe that sites had to pay to get in the book. If not, the author is just not very thorough. There are many, many great sites not listed.
