Customer Reviews

Great to give your mom!

This was wonderful to give to my mom! She loved it and so did I because it has some great advice.

Must for Mom

My mom had so many questions about what she was supposed to do as the MOB, so I purchased this book for her. She LOVES it! I have not read it, but she is always referring to it. She says that it addresses all sorts of issues and had been extremely helpful. She has recommended it for one of her friends who is also a MOB.

The best Mothers little helper!

Take it from someone who knew virtually nothing about weddings and what part a Mother has in them...this book saved the day for me!
