Do any of you know of any chick lit books that are about a character getting married or being a bride? I'm getting married this year and am looking for books like that to read.

Thanks! :)

Diary of a Mad Bride by Laura Wolf

I just ordered this one and haven't read it yet but it looks really good. Here is the description.

Once I was a sane, levelheaded professional woman. Then I said “yes.” Now I am the lunatic bride I always made fun of!

What is it about getting married that turns normal people into total freaks?

A savvy, riotously funny novel, Diary of a Mad Bride is for anyone who has ever been a bride, is about to become a bride, yearned to be a bride, or suffered the sheer indignity of appearing in public in the world’s ugliest bridesmaid dress....

My wedding was starting in less than twenty minutes, and I was stuck in a 7-Eleven parking lot with popcorn kernels wedged in my gums and vanilla ice cream melting on my dress. It was a disaster too large to comprehend. After an agonizing year spent planning my wedding, could it really end like this? The voices chronicling a year of wedding hysteria swirled in my head....

— My grandmother upon viewing my engagement ring:

“What do you mean he gave you an emerald! Diamonds are eternal, emeralds say, maybe five years.”

— My future father-in-law on the night of my engagement party:

“To a happy marriage and, if necessary, a painless divorce!”

— My best friend, Anita:

“Oh, screw congratulations. Of course I’m happy for you. Stephen’s a major piece of ass and he’s got a sense of humor. Just as long as you’re certain this is what you want.”

Would I survive this day after all....?

Ditto Diary of a Mad Bride.  I just checked my self, but I've already swapped it.  You'll totally enjoy it, being a future bride, especially if you've sworn to all your friends you'll never, ever in a million years become a bride-zilla.

thanks for the recommendation ladies. :)

anyone else know of any?

I liked Who's Wedding Is It Anyway? but I can't remember who wrote it. I read it about 2 months ago. :)

ETA :: It's a RDI book.

I think 'I Do But I Don't' is about a wedding planner.I have it and the sequel but haven't gotten to them yet....

Shopaholic Ties the Knot is hilarious.

I'll 2nd Shopaholic Ties the Knot!!!  But you should really read the Shopaholic books that come before that one first.

Carole Matthews - For Better For Worse

I've already read all the Shopaholic books and I loved them all. :)

Whitney Lyles has some with the wedding theme - Always a Bridesmaid is the first one.  I love her writing.

I was going to post what Jan said.  Always a Bridesmaid by Whitney Lyles and then Here Comes the Bride comes after that.

I have to agree with the people that said Shopaholic Ties the Knot.  Hilarious!

I just listed

Wedding Season :: Darcy Cosper Posted: 3/14/2008 4:55 PM ET

I'm not sure what genre its in but "Bride in Overdrive" by Jori Green Mark was hilarious and oh-so-true.  I guess its sort of a chick-littish memior(?) 

I have it on my shelf if you want to take a look at it.  I really loved it!

There's also Daughter of the Bride - I don't remember who wrote it though. It's about a woman who's never been married whose mother annouces she's getting remarried. (in case that wasn't obvious from the title LOL)   ;)

For Better or for Worse by Diann Hunt just came out.

When I was planning my wedding I read Altared, it is more short stories, than a novel, but it really made me feel like my wedding planning was quite sane!

http://www.amazon.com/Altared-Bridezillas-Bewilderment-Breakups-Contemporary/dp/0307277631/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1209066178&sr=8-1 is a link to it on Amazon.

Altared: Bridezillas, Bewilderment, Big Love, Breakups, and What Women Really Think About Contemporary Weddings (Paperback) is the full title.

I have given it to all of my engaged girlfriends!

Jenny Colgan's Amanda's Wedding is another one. 

A bit more serious is A. Manette Ansay's Midnight Champagne.  And I've not actually read this one, so I could be wrong, but I always presumed Emily Griffin's Something Blue was about a wedding.
