<http://blogs.overdrive.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/weddingbooks.jpg>If you’re looking at your Facebook News Feed, Twitter account, or email inbox and thinking “Everyone I know just got engaged,” you’re probably right. According to WeddingWire<http://www.weddingwire.com/>, 33% of engagements happen between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day.

I actually fell into that 33% on New Year’s Eve and one of the first things I did was go to my local library’s OverDrive site to checkout and download some eBooks to start the planning process.

To help manage the influx of newly engaged patrons, I created a list of our 100 most popular titles about Wedding Planning<https://marketplace.overdrive.com/Marketplace/OneCopyOneUser/SuggestedList/4159>. These titles cover everything from budgeting, photography, eco-conscious, cake and flower design, speeches, themes and anything else wedding-related you could imagine.

Be sure to stock up on extra copies! If you would like more suggestions, your Collection Development Specialist is available to help create recommended lists. Email collectionteam at overdrive.com<mailto:collectionteam at overdrive.com> for more information today!

*Some titles are metered access and may have limited regional or platform availability. Check OverDrive Marketplace<http://marketplace.overdrive.com/> to find what is available for you.
