This is a cute story/picture book from a pageboy's perspective of the modern Jewish Wedding. Set in a small village in the London suburbs, this creative work uses elementary terms to present the essentials of a tradtional Jewish wedding from the perspective of one of the wedding party members.

Not to be used by the bride to be as a 'how to, nuts and bolts' wedding planner, but a great book for those with some general Jewish backround looking for some wonderful ideas to add to your already colorful wedding plans.

Presented in very simple words, Hebraic terms such as Mazal-Tov, Chuppah, Ketubah, Chatan, and Kallah are wonderfully illustrated. Jewish customs such as the Mikveh (ritual bath), the Ketubah (marriage contract), and the bedecken are explained in the simplist of terms.

This work may be best utilized to help younger persons understand the beautiful occation of the Jewish Wedding. All in all the price is right for anyone interested in a book explaining the Jewish Wedding of today with traditional values...
