Library Journal
Most wedding etiquette books available today offer advice to the bride on how to plan the marriage ceremony. This guide is designed to help the groom handle the ring selection, invitations, rehearsal dinner, honeymoon vacation, bachelor party, and many legal aspects of marriage. Freelance writer Perry includes many of the typical charts found in other wedding handbooks: honeymoon budget, six-month countdown schedule, selection of a place to live, etc. Written in a colloquial style with plenty of anecdotes and analogies, this consumer guide is more likely to be read by the groom as he tries to organize his half of the celebration. An optional purchase for public library collections.
