 Irish Wedding Traditions... July 30, 2007
The book was smaller than I had expected, and it focused more on the rural traditions than on the ones that most Irish people actually follow. My Irish parents found it more amusing than helpful. Otherwise, the book was in perfect physical condition and as described.
 Great Buy! April 18, 2007
This little book was not only helpful, but it was fun to read as well. From poetry to floral ideas and music, it gave me a great jumping-off place. I will be using many of the suggestions in this book to plan my Irish wedding next year!
Great book!! November 18, 2004

I found this to be MUCH more helpful than "THE TRADITIONAL IRISH WEDDING" by Bridget Haggerty. Great supplement to the treasure trove of Irish wedding books. Well worth the few dollars spent on it!!!
Very IRISH! April 1, 2002

This book is chocked-full of Irish traditions, superstions, and folklore! I am "a little bit" Irish and therefore may use a few suggestions in my own wedding. The only down-side in using this book is that there are few practical suggestions on how to incorporate the information into your wedding, so you have to use your imagination. I found it an interesting read, though overall.
So helpful; so elegant! March 28, 2002

This is truly one of the most well-written and all-inclusive books on the topic of Irish weddings. (And I've seen most of them!) When my wife and I first discussed the idea of an Irish wedding, I must admit I expected green beer and kissing of blarney stones. I really didn't expect to have any input or interest in the plans at all. My wife's purchase of this book, while not making me an expert on celtic traditions, has given me a new vantage of the elegant and classic themes present in Irish ceremonies. This beautiful book has maintained its place at the top of our collection, and will remain there for years to come--both as a reminder of our ceremony and as an aesthetically attractive addition to our coffee table.
