Book Giveaway: Here Comes the Guide!
Last year I reviewed Here Comes the Guide: Northern California: Wedding Locations and Services by Jan Brenner (click title for my review) and found it incredibly helpful when planning our wedding. This is THE book we found our wedding venue from. No matter how much googling I did, our dream venue never came up. Seriously the book was a godsend.
As I said in my review at the time: "every venue they have listed in here has the location, what they offer, the amount they cost, how many people they can fit, all amenities, you know all of the useful stuff, all condensed into two pages per site. ... Inside Here Comes the Guide for Northern California you will find some tips on what to think about when hiring a venue and then it is broken down into Northern California's various regions (this place is big, yo). They also offer event services but those are just ads that don't say anything. The real meat is in the middle. At this point they appear to only offer the guides for Northern and Southern California but if you are planning a wedding in this state, I can recommend these guides!"
They also have an online website which is incredibly useful and involves information for more states.
Now onto the giveaway details:
