This review is from: Romantic Victorian Weddings: Then and Now (Hardcover)

I absolutely loved this best. I love the victorian era and this book let you see how it all began. It talks about the courtship that lead up to the marriage of Victoria and Albert. What was worn, what the bride carried, proper ettiquete, the decorations, how the families were involved. There is also tips on how you can have a victorian wedding. I used quite a bit of resources from this book for my own victorian wedding. It also has great colord pictures.

5.0 out of 5 stars Victorian Weddings, March 18, 2002

This review is from: Romantic Victorian Weddings: Then and Now (Hardcover)

This book is not for brides only. It is for everyone who would like to recapture the romance of a Victorian wedding. It has beautiful pictures, great ideas and resources.

There is something old for those who want to learn about the actual customs, traditions, fashions, and etiquette of Victorian weddings, and there is something new for those who want to plan a wedding now in the romantic Victorian tradition. And for those who enjoy the pure romance of it all, there is a chapter on notable Victorian weddings, those that were impressive then as well as now, beginning with that of the one who started it all, Queen Victoria. This is a beautiful book from beginning to end.
