Simple Stunning Wedding Etiquette

Ebook

Traditions, Answers, and Advice from One of Today's Top Wedding Planners

What's the preferred way of wording your invitation? How should guests at the wedding dinner be seated? What do you say to people who ask to bring their (uninvited) children to the reception-or, scarier still, to your prospective mother-in-law when she picks out the World's Ugliest Dress to wear on your big day?

Brides-to-be have a lot on their minds, including making sure that everything connected with the wedding is done the "right way." But nowadays few people are adequately schooled in the do's and don'ts of proper etiquette-and that's where Simple Stunning Wedding Etiquette comes to the desperately needed rescue.

This newest volume in Karen Bussen's Simple Stunning Wedding series-whose four previous books total more than 130,000 copies in print-is the perfect marriage between the timeless and the new. Bussen celebrates the beloved rituals (cake-cutting, toasts) that are well worth preserving, while dispensing with outmoded rites (the garter toss) best left by the wayside. And Bussen's guide goes beyond other wedding etiquette handbooks by dealing sensitively with the sometimes-fraught issues (divorced parents, second marriages, blending religious traditions) so crucial to contemporary wedding planning.
