5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensable for engaged couples & liturgists, December 16, 2002

Having worked with the author I knew of this book, but didn't fully appreciate it until asked to coordinate my best friend's wedding. It was a fantastic resource and gave us lots of good reasons to avoid many of the hackneyed and outdated "traditions" that really have nothing whatsoever to do with the Catholic vision of marraige.

Since then I've use the book several other times with other couples and have given it as an engagement gift several times.

When my then fiance and I were trying to prepare for our Catholic wedding, our wedding coordinator at our parish suggested we use this book. It was the best suggestion we got for preparing our wedding! This book helped us prepare our ceremony down to the finest detail, without being "preachy". It just gave us exactly what we needed, examples and all, and told us what we could do, couldn't do, and why. I highly recommend this workbook to any and all Catholic brides and grooms!

This book is truely helpful and insightful for Catholics getting married - to other Catholics or to anyone of another faith. Very well written, much less steril than other "church sponsored" literature.
