This unique new book puts readers on the most coveted guest lists to the most spectacular events, and goes behind the scenes for an insider's look at how these glamorous affairs come to be.
Southern Weddings showcases 10 splendid weddings, and shares the tools-and tricks-of the trade Tara has learned from over a decade of working in the event world.

4Beautiful Weddings in my Home Town  Dec 28, 2006 By Carolyn Thompson "Mom MD"
I purchased this book not because I'm in the wedding planning business or have a wedding in my future, but because I live in Charleston and love to entertain. I felt this book would give me ideas I could generalize to other types of events. I was not disappointed. By paying attention to the featured weddings, I could see recurrent themes in the way that Ms. Guerard operates - selecting a theme that is expressed in many ways throughout the event, draping, tenting, the importance of color, etc. An example is the common use of banquettes in the reception space. I'll bet that Ms. Guerard has this down to a science - a carpenter who can knock these out quickly and a seamstress who, using blocks of foam, can drape these with fabric, creating something elegant from relatively inexpensive materials. This is not a how-to book, though each featured wedding has instructions for creating something dramatic used in that wedding. I know there are plenty of handbooks on the market; this is an idea book with beautiful settings and photography.

5fabu pics  Mar 13, 2007 By K. Finlayson
As a northerner, I find the south fascinating and unfamiliar, and this book does nothing to dispel that notion - it only adds "gorgeous" to my description. I was particularly struck by the photography - the lush details that were captured, and the timeless look that would make any bride proud to display such photos for years to come. It even made me troll over to the photographer's website to see more!
