Naming Weddings books: what works
This genre revolves around the beauty of love, commitment, and the celebration of weddings. It's about the journey to 'I do' and the magic of love stories.
Titles should reflect the romance, joy, and significance of weddings and love stories.
Say which part of the wedding you solve
Couples buy wedding books for a task: the budget, the guest list, the vows, the speeches. Meg Keene's A Practical Wedding promises sanity in its first word, and the subtitle adds creative, affordable and meaningful. Name the task and the reader knows the book is for them.
Let tone set expectations
An etiquette book needs authority; a planning memoir needs a wink. Emily Post's Wedding Etiquette puts a trusted name up front, which tells readers this is the book to settle family arguments. A funny title on a serious checklist confuses people, and the reverse is worse.
Write for whoever bought the book
Many wedding book readers aren't the couple: the maid of honor, the father giving a toast, the friend asked to officiate, the mother of the groom. A title that names that person reaches a group most wedding books ignore. They often buy in a hurry, so be direct.
Turn the stock phrases around
I Do, Happily Ever After, Something Borrowed and The Big Day fill every wedding shelf. If you use one, twist it. Rebecca Mead's One Perfect Day takes the industry's own promise, then its subtitle about the selling of the American wedding turns it into critique.

Questions about Weddings titles
Should a wedding planning book include the year?
Only if it is a dated planner with calendars and countdown pages. Most planning guides are evergreen, and a year makes them look stale after one season. Put trends in the book, not on the cover.
How do I title a book of wedding speeches or toasts?
Name the speaker and the promise: best man, maid of honor, father of the bride, plus something about time or nerves. These readers are anxious and searching in the weeks before the wedding. A short, confident title reassures them that help is quick.
Is a wedding book title better funny or sincere?
It depends on the book. Humor works for memoirs, gift books and planners aimed at stressed couples. Etiquette guides, officiant handbooks and vow-writing books do better with warmth than jokes, because readers want to feel capable.
A title deserves a book.
Put it on a cover, write the first chapter under it, and see if it holds.
