5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent wedding etiquette book!, October 22, 2001

This review is from: Weddings: A Family Affair: The New Etiquette for Second Marriages and Couples with Divorced Parents (Paperback)
How to, what to; in this day and age of divorce and second marriages, this book is a MUST! I used it as my reference every step of the way and as I planned by non-traditional nuptials, I was delighted that etiquette was still upheld!
Lovely stories from other brides and grooms were told to encourage us to have our own special Scottish ceremony a day we'll never forget!

This review is from: Weddings: A Family Affair: The New Etiquette for Second Marriages and Couples with Divorced Parents (Paperback)
I bought this as a gift and was VERY embarrassed when the person I bought for opened it and fund writing on numerous pages. It was not advertized as being "used and written in".

This review is from: Weddings: A Family Affair: The New Etiquette for Second Marriages and Couples with Divorced Parents (Paperback)
My plan was to use this book to get ideas for things to do in our wedding. My husband and I both have been married prior and each have children from our first marriage. The book was helpful in some ways and way off base on others. It talks a lot about feelings of family and friends, things to expect and not to expect such as showers, parties, gifts, announcements, etc. It also talks a little about suggesting ways to incorporate prior family connections such as the ex-mother-in-law that you adore, etc. Good book for those who don't have a clue how to proceed, not so good for ceremony ideas.
