Quick fluffy read. It was cute, I enjoyed it.

From Booklist
At 29, Amy Thomas is content being single, happily dating Stephen, and wondering what has come over her friend Mandy, who's getting married and spends all her time planning and talking about her wedding. Then, in the concession line at a movie theater, Stephen asks Amy to marry him, and suddenly she has her own wedding to plan, and it's overwhelming. Her wedding to-do list grows from a modest 20 items to a whopping 70, and Stephen is no help at all. Amy is devastated when she finds out that her parents and Stephen's parents will each give them only five thousand dollars. That puts the grand New York wedding she's been dreaming of out of reach, so she settles for having the reception in her parents' backyard. But she still needs a dress, shoes, a band, and a gazillion other things, and before she knows it, Amy has turned into the "mad bride" she's always rolled her eyes at. A frolic that will appeal to brides and bridesmaids alike
