A Man and Her Wedding [Paperback]

Steven Brantner (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 27, 1999

If you're not sure whether "stephanotis" is a part of the bridal bouquet or one of the hors d'oeuvres at the reception, Steven Brantner feels your pain! Join him on this humorous journey through a typical male's flight-or-fight reactions to the planning of "her wedding." The ring; the reception; the relatives. How can a clueless Regular Guy possibly navigate his way through so many potential land mines? Brantner provides a man's perspective into the all-too-often irrational world of weddings. No book written by a woman, humorist, or psychologist can quite compete with the insights provided by a Regular Guy Who's Been There.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Brantner's commentary is a breath of fresh air in the heavily perfumed world of wedding planning. He tackles everything from the invitations to the in-laws with a common sensical approach pulled from the experience of real people and does it with just the right mix of good humor and good advice." -- Bonnie Kam, Wedding Consultant, Seattle, WA

This review is from: A Man and Her Wedding (Paperback)

Without this multitude of humorous thoughts and expressive ideas, my wedding would not have gone so incredibly smooth and stress-free! This is all due to the help my husband effortlessly gave after reading Steven Branter's fabulous insight into the world of men and weddings!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the regular guy's bible for planning HER wedding!, October 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: A Man and Her Wedding (Paperback)

The many "Brantner-isms" (the humorous, but true take Steven Brantner has on life) had me laughing and relating to the stories and advice. Regular guys around the world should read "A Man and Her Wedding" to realize that they are not alone in their limited role in the wedding planning. The sooner they read this book and understand their role, the more they will enjoy and relax during the planning of HER wedding!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally Something In The Wedding Process A Guy Can Relate To, October 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: A Man and Her Wedding (Paperback)

Very well written! It's funny, witty and extremely informative. Brantner does a wonderful job of providing insight to both the Bride and more importantly, the Groom, as they begin their voyage towards marriage.

Throughout "A Man and Her Wedding" there are many fun little stories that will both amuse and amaze you.

I have to be honest, I'm not someone who typically likes to curl up on the couch with a good book, but I couldn't put this one down. Lets face it guys, there are just somethings we either don't understand or are completely in the dark on, and weddings may be one of them.

I highly recommend this book.
