Modern Bride Honeymoons and Weddings Away: The Complete Guide to Planning Your Romantic Trip Ever

Geri Bain, Bain. John Wiley & Sons, $21.95 (256pp) ISBN 978-0-471-00722-7

The author, travel editor of Modern Bride, has compiled a detailed, step-by-step guide to planning a honeymoon. It is full of practical information for picking a destination, choosing a travel agent and transportation, packing, and evaluating travel packages. Bain addresses planning a destination wedding, in which the couple travels to a place to get married. She also touches on the favorite honeymoon destinations--Hawaii, the Caribbean, Mexico, and Florida. The various checklists, worksheets, and budget forms are helpful for the couple under the stress of making wedding plans. The appendixes contain comprehensive resources for planning, as well as a recent list of foreign tourist offices. This is a fairly standard guide, for public libraries.--Melinda Stivers Leach, Precision Editorial Svcs., Wondervu, Col.
