Our daughter is engaged and thought this would be a great gift for my husband as we proceed with wedding plans. The first several chapters where fine but when references were made about the bachelor party and the FOB attending, I was shocked. It made references to lap dances, nude women, and other things I don't care to mention. I thought it was inappropriate to suggest that those activities are expected. Not every one indulges in those kind of activities and we are proud to say our future son in law wouldn't dishonor our daughter in that way. The problem was that it just didn't mention it in one place but it was repeated in several areas. I think there could have been more pertinent information for the FOB rather than wasting pages on distasteful decriptions. I am glad I bought the book used, but it was wasted $4. It's going in the trash. Will try to find a better resource that is more tasteful and helpful.

I purchased this book as a gift for my dad when I got engaged. I knew full-well that my dad would not have much time to read the book, but I was pleasantly surprised when I mom took a look at it (even though she received books of her own). She highlighted pages for my dad to look at, and he did. In my mom's description of the book, it makes me an easy reference guide for first-time fathers' of the bride.
