Book Giveaway #3
Since I’m abandoning you this week I’m opening up a new giveaway for my book, The DIY Bride: 40 Fun Projects For Your Ultimate One-of-a-Kind Wedding.
I have 2 copies of the book to give away. Just leave a comment in response to this post between now and Monday, 2/18. I’ll pick 2 random winners on Tuesday.
**I ask that only brides-to-be (and grooms, too) enter the contest, please. Since they’re the ones in the most need of the info & inspiration in the book, I strongly feel they’re the ones who should have the opportunity to win a copy. Thanks for your understanding!**
Good luck!

I am so craft challenged… it would be great to win this.

Yeah, I’m planning my own wedding for Sept. ‘09, as well as a wedding for my future brother and sister in law for Feb. ‘09. FUN! =)
just started planning the big day. would love a copy of your book!
Thank you for this blog. It’s nice to know, when my fiance and my mom and everyone else roll there eyes when I say “Why don’t we just MAKE them?”, that there are others out there. I’m getting married July 26th of this year, and gosh darnit, I’m going to MAKE everything I can.
I would love your book! Someone told me about your DIY chuppah (which my fiance and I are planning to build ourselves) and I can’t wait to see what you said.
I would love a copy! Planning a Sept 09 wedding and doing as much DIY as possible.
i’d love a copy of this book! thanks for the contest!
My fiancee and I are planning a DIO (do-it-ourselves) wedding for August 2008. Judging from how much I enjoy your blog, I’m sure the book would be indispensable! I’ve been disappointed by some other DIY wedding books, so I’d love to see something new. Thanks!
I’ll be getting married in the near future and plan to be a hands on diy bride. I have two kids and also will be moving to our first home soon after my wedding, so I will be on a very strict budget. Sp I would love to win this book to show just how I can cut costs as I go. Thank You So Much!
My fiance and I have been together for eight years, and are planning to be married on 08/08/08. My fiance is a speical education teacher, and I am a child and family therapist for a non-profit agency. And we are definitely a non-profit couple! LOL I am trying to cut corners wherever possible so that we can save our money the necessary components to make this our dream wedding. I am an artist by nature, so any opportunity to do it myself is right up my alley! Thank you for offering this contest!!
Ooh, I’d love a copy! We’re getting married in May 2008 and I want to do tons of DIY!
Maybe this will be my lucky day!!
ooh…what a fun-looking book! i just discovered your website a few days ago and i love it! we’re getting married sometime this summer and i want to make as much of the decorations myself as i can.
I love DIY projects and I am getting married this October.
Thank You!
I was directed here by another blog about invitations. I am getting married this summer & we are doing so much of it ourselves. It is fun and yet some days I have no ideas and my creativity starts to fade – your website is a source of inspiration. For that – I say Thank You!. KT
Hello! I would really like a book that could help with my wedding. I am really trying to save money and I have a ton of wedding magazines and want to find some way to use all of that.
Hello! I am getting married June ‘09, and would absolutely LOVE this book!!! We’re on such a tight budget, and I’ve dreamed of this day since I was little…to be able to make it beautiful even on a budget by doing DIY projects would be a dream come true!!! I am 22 years old, all I’ve ever wanted was to get married, and have kids…but I’m having trouble even coming up with ideas since our computer keeps being so slow (my dad is supposed to try to fix it soon), and I really can’t afford all the expensive bridal magazines or anything to find ideas…can you help? Even if I don’t win the book, if you could email me anything advice that would be great. Getting married in Chicago can be so expensive, it’s overwhelming…but I think I can pull it off if only I could get some help. Thank you so much!!!! And if I won, I’d be forever grateful!!!
Sincerely,
Lindsay Anderson
P.S. If I don’t get picked, congratulations to the couple that does.
And thank you for holding this contest, it’s so sweet of you!!!
I’m a law student and check your site daily during my classes (I’m actually entering as I sit in class right now), I would love nothing better than to replace one of my law books with yours! My mom and I are huge DIY-ers and would really help us out since I’m in law school debt up to my eyeballs.
Getting Married 08/08/08!!!! to the man of my dreams! He was my first real boyfriend when I was 14. 13 years we are reunited by strange twists of fate. Turns out it was in God’s plan all along. God has a funny sense of humor, for sure!
This would be a great resource for my wedding.
I would love a copy! I’ve had so much fun planning my diy wedding that I volunteered to help a friend with hers next year. I’m thinking about going into low expense wedding planning, as there really is a need!
I would love the book as my wedding is coming at on July 26th 2008

Love this website and would love a copy of the book! Only wish I had found it sooner!
I’m having a “green” wedding in September and would love to have your book to borrow your ideas.
I would certainly appreciate any opportunity to help me with ideas for our wedding. As the responsibility is on me to pay for the wedding. I’m doing all I can to save and “personalize” our special day. I thank you for the chance to make our day extra special.
Thanks so much for all your great ideas! I would love to have a copy of your book!! I’m getting married in May 09. I’m a medical student and so not creative and your book of ideas would be amazing for my fiance, Joe and I.
Absolutely love this site! There are so many great ideas! Would love a copy of the book to continue to make my wedding fun, exciting and unique! Thanks again!
I love DIY! Too bad all our money went to a new house
Oh well, thats why we visit wonderful websites and read books like yours, thanks to your ingenuity and passion, many people benefit!
I would absolutely love to win this book!
Your website has been the most helpful in planning my wedding and I can only imagine that the book would do wonders for me. I still have more than enough time (7months) to get some great use out of this book! And I am really am trying to find ways to make our wedding unique and a day for everyone to remember! Regardless, thank you for a wonderful website and all the help its been for me thusfar!!!
I’ve heard so many good things about your book – I couldn’t help but join in the comment frenzy!
I saw your book at a local book store a couple weeks ago and I was very intrigued. The advice and projects look great, and there are a few that I am interested in (specifically, the cufflinks for the groomsmen and my fiance, and programs and seating charts). I didn’t buy the book that day because I’m busy with some other projects and work right now, but I think some of your projects will help us to get organized.
We would love a copy of your book! As artist/designer team soon to be husband and wife, we sure would love some inspiration and ideas for our November wedding!
I’d love a copy of you book! I am planning a September wedding that will take place outdoors at a summer camp, and my partner and I are really interested in making the event a meaningful, unique, fun, and not ridiculously expensive good time. Your book would be a huge help!
I would love it!
