Intelligently written

It is so refreshing to find an intelligently written book on weddings. No mind numbing, cookie cutter fluff here. While it could use an index, the information was presented sequentially, beginning with traditional ways of choosing a mate and the task of choosing the wedding date. Although a lot of information is presented, it is not a difficult read.

Insightful, well written, great material

I haven't finished this book yet, but I am impressed. Some areas are a bit "all over the place", but I love the way it was written. I agree with the other review in that it is in dire need of an index.

NOT a fluffy planner.

After going through several wedding planners at my local library, I thought I had a feel for them. Quick reads, usually well-laid out, with about 50% actually having more than one or two new ideas. I was not prepared for a thesis-thick presentation on currrent and historical marriage customs throughout the world. This book was sorely in need of an index. However, it was also useful. So many customs were detailed that you could probably find justification for about 70% of anything "non-traditional" you wanted to do and seek out a tradition that matched it. Very handy. This book will be especially good for anyone who wants astrology to figure prominently in their wedding, as it's one of the author's favorite subjects. If you're interested in a New Age-like report on marriage and related lore throughout the world, get this book.
