Funny you ask that, My Best Friend bought one over for me today. It looks so nice, not sure if I would have bought it myself but here is the link.

Its also from exclusively weddings

No bag just the engraved binder and portfolio

I have one that I bought from Barnes & Noble in the City called The Bride's Essential Wedding Planner. It is WONDERFUL!!!

Re: Did anyone get a planning book?

actually I got that exact book but it's a pocket version, I don't have anything but the RH booked yet but it's going to be extremely helpful because it has places for all the names and phone #'s of vendors and stuff and it's tiny so I can carry it with me!

I got one but I really never use it. Instead, I'm using a 3-ring binder from Staples and I bought clear plastic pages that you can slip things in. Every time I see an ad from a bride's magazine with something I like, I put it in the binder, so I have pages and pages worth of stuff to flip through. I have categories: dresses, flowers, decorating ideas, etc. I think I'll just take that with me when I go to look for gowns, florists, etc.

I do the same w/ mine, but after each divder for each subject I have the questions printed out to ask each vendor while interviewing.. as well as printed out guest list from here, and my to do list timeline in the front of the book.

Re: Did anyone get a planning book?

I have three wedding planners that I received as gifts::::

Wedding planning on a budget....get information but small. Not a binder but it does dit in a medium sized pocketbook

I got a binder one from hallmark. I like the color it comes with information, pages to fill out and folders to put your stuff in.

Third I just got as a late christmas giflt tonight
spiral bound ,beautiful...lots of saying and lots of room to write.
Small can fit in medium folder.

Email me for the titles

The one I really wanted was The Ultimate WEdding Planner...it comes with a calculator and other items!
