The BBC's hit series Don't Tell the Bride has graced our screens for nearly a decade with stories of tasteless parties, disgruntled guests and dodgy ceremonies. Now, with exclusive access to the hit television show, including behind the scenes interviews with some of its most popular guests, this wonderful book takes an alternative look at how to plan a wedding and what not to do with that all-important budget.

Don't Tell the Bride sees couples spend nearly three weeks apart while the groom blows a £12,000 budget on whatever he likes! This hilarious and informative guide explores what it really takes to arrange a wedding and speaks to former guests of the show about how their experiences affected their big day. With chapters on how to plan the stag or hen, who to invite, and, of course, the all-important wedding dress, this is both a fantastic guide on how to plan a wedding and a wonderful accompaniment to the hit TV show!
