Summary

“One of the best books for brides . . . Her satirical, tongue-in-cheek take on making your wedding all about yourself will offer some much-needed laughs.” —Real Simple 
 
In this bridal gag gift, Upright Citizens Brigade comedian Laura Willcox writes in the voice of an overbearing, outrageous wedding planner, covering all aspects of a wedding—from the moment of engagement (hopefully with the ring you’ve been not so subtly emailing him about for months), all the way through the final minutes of the big day. Accompanied by Jason O’Malley’s humorous illustrations, Willcox offers tongue-in-cheek advice for every wedding-planning moment, whether it’s dreaming up the perfect wedding-weekend hashtag, planning a gift registry to make everyone jealous of your fabulous lifestyle, or figuring out how to distance yourself from the poor, unfortunate souls who didn’t make the cut for your guest list. 
 
  
 
Laura Willcox’s refreshing take on all things bride will turn tradition on its head, and have you rolling your eyes and reading passages out loud to your engaged (and married) friends. This funny book is a perfect gift for the friend who can’t stop pinning to her dream wedding board, bridezilla-to-be, or any bride who would benefit from a much-needed break from the stress and madness of wedding planning. 
 
“Perfectly mocks the absurd wedding-planning industry. Whether you’re having a big wedding to prove something to your ex, or a small wedding to make your loved ones feel excluded, this book will make you laugh through the overwhelming planning process.” —Lauren Lapkus, actor and comedian

    The modern world and media can make it seem like unless your life is filled with ‘"stuff" you can never be happy. In fact, true happiness and simplicity can be found in every moment. Hygge and Minimalism and Decluttering will show you exactly how to do that.
     
    Hygge is a lifestyle that comes from Denmark (The happiest country in the world I thought I'd mention) that, in essence, means creating a warm atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life with good people. And Minimalism is actually about a reassessment of your priorities, so you can strip away the excess stuff that doesn’t actually provide value to your life. 
    Here is just a sliver of what you will discover inside:
    
    The three questions to ask yourself to live a meaningful life
    Declutter by buying more things

    Why you aren’t fulfilled (Hint: The next iPhone isn’t going to do it either!)
    How to embrace Hygge all year round
    10 simple strategies to employ hygge while traveling
    The simplest secret to skyrocket your happiness
    A step-by-step guide to making your life more hygge starting today
    And much, much more

This is the sometimes horrific, yet always instructive, story of Bear and Human, written by the leading scientific authority in the field.
