Book Description

Hal Leonard Wedding Essentials January 2006
Diane Warner’s Complete Book of Wedding Vows is the only book devoted solely to helping you prepare and personalize your vows so they are as unique and special as every other aspect of your wedding.

It is one of the largest compilations of vows ever assembled, a practical user-friendly guide that helps couples compose personalized vows from the heart, vows that express their deep feelings of love and commitment to each other.

Diane Warner’s Complete Book of Wedding Vows includes a wide variety of traditional wedding vows from countries and culture around the world, along with hundreds of personalized, nontraditional vows- those for second marriages, marriages of older couples, ceremonies of reaffirmation and wedding involving children from previous marriages.

Vows with religious variations, those inspired by the classics (Elizabeth Barrett Browning, John Keats, Shakespeare and many others), even some devoted exclusively to rings are included. And, for the first time in this new edition: Theme wedding vows (including poignant Hand-Fasting ceremony vows and special vows for a Renaissance wedding) and a number of original vows submitted by Diane’s many readers

"At last! A book of wedding vows that runs the gamut from traditional to vows inspired by the classics. If you coordinate weddings, or if you are involved in any way with bridal couples, you will find this book to be a great reference tool."

—Doris Dixon, VP, National Bridal Service

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than most., June 21, 2006
This review is from: Diane Warner's Complete Book of Wedding Vows: Hundreds of Ways to Say "I Do" (Hal Leonard Wedding Essentials) (Paperback)
It's difficult to recommend one book of wedding vows over the dozens of others, as, for the most part, they contain primarily, the same material. It's sort of an "If you've read one, you've read them all" scenario. However, Diane Warner has certainly established herself as one of the most prolific writers in the wedding genre, and I believe also, one of the best.

So what makes this book better than the others? More and more weddings today are moving away from "traditional" vows. Warner has assembled here, a broad mixture of vows from various categories. Though the first chapter does indeed provide examples of traditional vows ranging from Jewish, Hindu and numerous Christian faiths, the other ten chapters are devoted to non-traditional vows, e.g. second marriages, including children, older couples, ring vows, theme weddings and so on.

At just barely over 200 pages, the book is hardly all-inclusive, and the reader may not find precisely what they are looking for, but this book gives countless good starting points. You may be able to slightly alter something you find here to make a perfect fit for your wedding, or you may find further useful resources in the bibliography.

There are dozens of books available, anyone of which may contain exactely what you're looking for, but if you want a single volume to point you in the right direction, this one is better than most.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very fine book, November 3, 2006
This review is from: Diane Warner's Complete Book of Wedding Vows: Hundreds of Ways to Say "I Do" (Hal Leonard Wedding Essentials) (Paperback)
This is one of the books that has been on my shelf for years, and that I use regularly when writing a ceremony for one of my couples. It's a good resource and sparks ideas. Along with Diane's Contemporary Guide to Wedding Ceremonies, Judith Johnson's Wedding Ceremony Planner and a couple of others, my wedding ceremony-writing library is complete.
