Hi, I’m Crista Tharp
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement! This is a great time in your life and you should enjoy every minute of it…..
But what if you aren’t?
~ Are you finding yourself unsure of where to start?
~ Are you overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of work that goes into planning a wedding?
~ Are you afraid you are going to be taken advantage of by unscrupulous vendors?
~ Are you terrified that you are going to start your marriage off drowning in debt?
~ Are you nervous that you will forget something crucial?
~ Do you wish you could afford a wedding planner but can’t?
~ Do you have sensitive family issues that you don’t know how to handle?
~ Do you wish you had a worksheet that you could follow that would take you by the hand and take you step by step through the process?
Let me reassure you first and tell you that IT WILL BE OK. I have been an event planner specializing in weddings for over 10 years. I am an author of 5 books, a newspaper columnist, a regular contributor to www.WedPlan101.com, and I speak all over the country on my creative method of wedding planning.
Through my years of experience I have watched couples struggle when they couldn’t afford to hire a planner/coordinator.
They believed that if they didn’t have a professional and spend over $50,000 they couldn’t have a beautiful, seamless, perfect wedding.
BALONEY!
You CAN plan your own wedding, plan it just as well as a professional and save THOUSANDS of dollars in the process!
I forgot to mention that I have been married for 13 years to the same incredible handsome stud-of-a-man and we have 8 children all under the age of 12. Yes, they are all ours and we do own a T.V.! We just love each other – which is what I hope for you.
Planning a wedding can be a very stressful experience and you can easily forget the reason you are doing this in the first place – to marry the love of your life! Which is why I Created “The Ultimate Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide”: so you can…..
Survive the Planning and Embrace your Marriage!
You can use the ground-breaking techniques in this guide and not only plan your dream wedding, but save hundreds, if not thousands of dollars and enjoy every single minute of it.
You don’t have to be a professional to do it – just use the tricks of the trade – all of which are included.
During my 25 years in the wedding industry I have seen many trends come and go, unfortunately, most outlived their usefulness long ago. Crista Tharp and “The Ultimate Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide” are a breath of fresh air that is sure to awaken the creativity in all of us. Welcome to an inventive new look at wedding planning for today’s Bride-to-be. Crista is not your Grandmother’s wedding planner. “The Ultimate Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide” is realistic and in touch with the issues and concerns of a modern Bride. This is a “MUST READ” for every Bride-to-be!

A Bride's dream come true! An easy read that
provides just the right amount of information, without all the
unnecessary details! The worksheets were invaluable. I know that I
would have forgotten many details without using this book!

I LOVED how the guide helped keep me organized! The Bliss Method ™ kept me on track and doing things in an order that made sense. I think my favorite parts were the Worksheets & Quote templates. The worksheets helped me figure out what I needed/wanted during the planning process. The Quote templates were amazing - they helped me ask ALL the right questions when meeting with vendors!!!

This guide features The Bliss Method ™. The Bliss Method ™ is a 4 phase system that guides a Bride step-by step through the planning, delegation, and execution of her wedding day. This method is shockingly simple and is spreading like wildfire through the wedding industry – of which I am extremely proud.
Lets face it…old timelines don’t work anymore. And most of the information you get out of those Bridal magazines is down right WRONG! Brides are screaming for everything they need all in one place. They don’t want to spend hours scouring the internet for bits and pieces of the right information and sorting out what isn’t overt advertisements.
If you go to a book store and pick up any of the hundreds of books they have on wedding planning available, I will bet you good money that 99% of them were written AT LEAST 10 years ago, and if not, EVEN LONGER. How does that help YOU? Trends, etiquette and issues change by the minute these days. Books written 5, 10, and 20 years ago are only going to cause you problems and cost you MORE MONEY.
I will take you step-by-step exactly how to plan your wedding. This is the second edition of this book within the first year! Obviously, I am keeping you up-to-date. Every question you may have WILL be answered. Every form and checklist you need is INCLUDED. This guide is a BLUEPRINT for your immediate and astonishing success.
This guide helped to keep my sanity when helping my
daughter plan her wedding. Everyone knows his or her responsibility
when it comes to the planning. The Bliss Method helped to keep every
item of business on track!

When I began I was very overwhelmed and I had no idea where to even start and who to trust. When I received The UBSWG I immediately felt at ease looking over all the tools that it included and was first hand advice from an expert I could trust who has seen, heard, and done it all when it comes to a large event. This planner is a "DIY” way for me to put everything together and organize my thoughts, ideas, and paperwork. From the worksheets, checklists, and quote templates to the current trends, traditions, and sensitive family issues - I knew that I would have every step covered and that put my mind at ease
I began as an overwhelmed bride with the thought that I could never do this all myself in the amount of time that I have, and I hate to waste money. Yet now I feel like everything has flowed together so easily and I honestly have never been so relaxed; I am no longer overwhelmed, and I feel that my wedding will be a much more enjoyable experience for all with a stress free environment in which my family and I have saved time, money, and been able to enjoy every step of the way together.
I want to thank Crista for the "Ultimate Wedding Planner" and give her the full credit for making my planning experience the most enjoyable yet of any event I have ever done. I have truly enjoyed every minute of the wedding planning experience and I look forward to many more memories to come.

I have packed “The Ultimate Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide” with a wealth of information unrivaled by ANY wedding book on the market because my goal is to provide you a system that makes your wedding planning as easy and as fun as possible. If I succeed in my goal then you and everyone in your family is happy and your wedding day is nothing but blissful and THAT is how you start a marriage.
SERIOUSLY!
Unfortunately, we have a 51% divorce rate in our country. Because weddings have become such productions – we have forgotten what our focus should be.
Not dance lessons, menu tastings (although fun) and tying ribbons around little bags of M&Ms.
We need to put the “engage” back into “engagement”. This guide helps you do that. I promise. And I also promise that when someone asks you “how’s the wedding planning going?” You will respond enthusiastically – GREAT!!
Just to make sure you realize that I really want to help you, I have added the following bonuses that will ensure you will have EVERY tool you need to plan a wedding that you will never forget!
BONUS #1
“The Four Most Successful Ways to Save for Your Wedding…And they Really Work!”
This report gives you real solutions for finding extra money. It also tells you how to go about paying for what will possibly the most expensive party of your life.
BONUS #2
“The Groom’s Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide”
In addition to “The Ultimate Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide”, I have written companion guides for the Groom, Best Man, Maid of Honor, and Both sets of Parents. The Groom’s guide tells your love EXACTLY what is expected of him, and his Best Man; includes details on his tuxes, the honeymoon, the marriage license and even has wedding terms and abbreviations he needs to know. Not only that, but the guide is complete with notes for his toast, his “To Do” list and “Day Of” checklist.
The perfect addition to your guide and COMPLETELY FREE!
Obviously, if you were to hire a wedding planner it would cost you upwards of $2,000 or more.
I wrote this guide so you could be your own planner and save money as well. I am NOT going to take advantage of you and I refuse to overprice what I have been blessed with to share. The “The Ultimate Bridal Survivor ™ Wedding Guide” PLUS the bonuses are worth more than $99. HOWEVER, I am now offering it at $39.95 to celebrate the unbelievable success of the second edition!
