Ditch the storybook wedding, banish Bridezilla, and walk down the aisle in truth and in style: You are a Stone Fox Bride and this is your bridal guide. Molly Rosen Guy founded the brand Stone Fox Bride as an alternative to outdated, plastic-princess wedding culture. Her stylish and subversive approach is being embraced by creative, modern brides who believe in love and romance, but have no interest in running off into the sunset. In an inspiring mix of intimate storytelling, gorgeous visuals, and candid advice, with an aesthetic that channels Bianca Jagger in a white tux rather than Cinderella in a frilly gown, Molly Rosen Guy—your cool, hippie chic guide through the wilds of wedding planning—encourages brides-to-be, and their ladies in tow, to say no to all things phony, frilly, and silly. Featuring personal essays that explore the nuances of the process, including a raw, unairbrushed look at the realities of the early days of marriage, she tells us that a Stone Fox Bride should never sacrifice her style, her story, or her sanity to please others; she reassures us that weddings don't have to be free of confusion, shades of gray, or cellulite; and reminds us that marriage, like love, is equal parts complicated and beautiful.

Chapter 1 Bling It On The Lowdown on Low-Key Proposals + Rings The day after M asked me to marry him, I went to work at my fancy cosmetics job, where I was as a copywriter. I remember it was a Friday, which meant that we were allowed to wear jeans! Yay! Huge deal. The office environment was super corporate and buttoned-up—we were definitely not encouraged to share the details of our personal lives with one another. Still, I couldn’t resist sharing the news with my coworker. “Guess what?” I whispered over the partition between our cubicles. “What?” “I’m engaged! We’re getting married.” “Shut. Up.” She stood up fast, eyes wide, and grabbed my hand. Only there was nothing to see! My finger was totally naked. “M didn’t propose with a ring.” “What?” “He just asked. There was no ring.” She sat back down, eyes returning to her computer screen. “Mmm. Congrats.” And that was that. Her reaction wasn’t anomalous. The rest of the day, whenever I told someone the news, the first thing they’d do was grab my hand excitedly. But once they realized it lacked any bling, the conversation ended.
