This was among the TWO best books for wedding planning. Tons of quotes, toasts, traditions, especially helpful in a mult-cultural wedding like ours. Definitely gives you an outline when it comes to that week before when you start to think, what should we say?....copy word for word if desired...

This book is helpful in writing both traditional and non-traditional vows, readings and exchanges. We also found it very helpful in choosing ceremony music.

This was a very nice book! It was very helpful in the combining of traditions. My husband came from a Catholic background and I came from Protestant. We found wonderful words to write our vows with that combined both traditions, and we found inspiration for the personal vows we read to each other. Good luck!
