Cute, accurate, friendly, but limited,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Catholic Wedding Book (Paperback)
The Catholic Wedding Book is a nice break from books that thunder about how "the wedding is just one day." It also includes everything you need to know to plan your One Day in the Catholic Church -- if you're a young couple having a typical wedding hosted by your parents. Older and more established couples may chuckle at the early chapters but will have to wait for the ceremony chapter to find useful information. The checklists and sample forms in the appendices are excellent.

This book answers every possible question you might have.,

This review is from: The Catholic Wedding Book (Paperback)
This was a handy reference book that was humorously written to take the guesswork out of planning a wedding. Even "cradle Catholics" need some guidelines, and this is the book for anyone who wants a Catholic wedding. It includes variations for all needs and wishes.

OK if you are American,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Catholic Wedding Book (Paperback)
This book intends to be a complete guide to organising your wedding in a Catholic church. The selection of possible readings, and some of the ideas on how to organise the ceremony are fine. However if you are getting married in Britain (as opposed to America, where the book was written) you have very little leeway about the vows as they are covered by Act of Parliament. The "light-hearted", jokey style gets a bit irratating after a while too. From personal experience of organising my own wedding in a Catholic church this year, I'd forget the book and talk to your priest instead.
