Acknowledgments

Thanks to all of the wonderful brides, grooms, maids of honor, best men, bridesmaids, and mothers and fathers of the bride for sharing their special moments with us. Thanks, too, to the many wonderful photographers who have contributed their considerable talents and arresting images to make this book so special. Thanks to the wedding party members in our lives, most especially Babe Scott, Aubyn Peterson, Chris Lea, and Kim Doi.

Special thanks to our editor, Rebecca Isenberg, for her invaluable insight, tireless inspiration, and support, and to Victoria Horn, from whom all blessings flow.

Finally, a very special thanks to Jenny Bent, the best agent and best friend in the whole wide world bar none.

BEWARE OF BRIDE

I'm gonna ask you one more time …
WHAT DO YOU THINK
OF MY MANICURE?

See? You really can
GET A MAN WITH A GUN—
especially if it's pink

If I don't hear
THE CHICKEN DANCE
soon, feathers
are gonna fly

No, no, nononono, No,
NOOOO! This is NOT
what I ORDERED!!!!
