Love the Dream Day series. It's nice and refreshing, which I need right about now as I'm immersed in a Nancy Drew game that is creepy right now.  Really wondering about my sanity.

I've just beta tested this one and I can't wait. All Oberon games are beautiful. But this one is head and shoulders above the others (and that's saying a lot!) Absolutely great! Can't wait for BF to get it! HO is challenging and the puzzles are very imaginative. Sound effects/music brill.

I was lucky enough to beta this game and I have to say, I am impressed.
HO play is stellar. As with all Oberon games, the graphics are gorgeous, the objects are clear. No dark corners, no under something else so that it's ridiculous to even think you can find it. Includes random objects and x of the same.
Adventure style puzzles (use an inventory object to solve) are way more involved than previous DD games. A few are locked room puzzles. Not nearly as involved as Amazon but still fun.
Mini-puzzles are arcade style with a twist. Well chosen, we've seen them before but they've been tweaked a little and freshened up.
There are both hints and points to find in every screen. These are optional but improve game-play. (Personally, I love optional objects. It's a challenge to find all of them, they aren't on your list and it adds a little urgency.)
You use the hints to decorate the gazebo where the wedding will take place, expanding the bouquet, cake and dress challenges from previous games.
The story is simple, but you communicate with key members of the wedding party through cell phone. Dialog is short & efficient. The people you are working for are polite, friendly and occasionally helpful. Makes a difference. Unless it was played for humor, a bridezilla would be annoying.
Overall, a well-produced, relaxing and beautiful game. I'll be buying this one if it comes to BFG.

Thanks for the heads up FREEZECLNM. I loved the first three, was so-so on Manhattan, but this one sounds great!
Welcome to the Pond FREEZECLNM and Game_Fearie!
