4 out of 5 stars A comprehensive guide   February 23, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This guide is an excellent resource for any same-sex couple planning a wedding...or even just dreaming about the big day. Covering both "traditional" ceremonies and offering descriptions of more "alternative" options, the authors provide down-to-earth insights and advice. The guide also features comments from many real-life couples, and it is comforting to read the words of the many who have gone before. Highly recommended pre-wedding reading.


5 out of 5 stars Timely, Informative & Entertaining   January 19, 2006
"Tess Ayers & Paul Brown have the freshest, most unexpected addition to every wedding reference section--a wonderfully witty, sophisticated guide to same-sex weddings. This first book of its kind is packed with real-life stories and a wealth of practical answers couples won't find from Emily Post. 40 photos. Ayers and Brown rework traditional wedding-planning. Their book's three sections deal with the decision-making process, wedding logistics, and actual step-by-step planning, for which they provide checklists to carry a couple through the big event. Along with such practical matters as the rules for wedding gifts and what a photographer provides, Ayers and Brown deal with such fine points for gays and lesbians as considering what to call him or her (bride? groom?), gender-bending wedding fashions, alternative invitations, and whether and how to change one's name. Timely, informative, and entertaining."-- zebraz

My coworker had bought this and I had borrowed it and laughed so hard from reading it. It makes you laugh at yourself. Its a way to remind us breeders how uptight we need not be.


4 out of 5 stars How Normalizing!   September 17, 2004
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is a good book, primarily because it uses a standard model, wedding guide, to meet the needs of a specific community, gays & lesbians. Bravo!

Now it is time for the update!

I bought this for my sister when she told me she was going to have a commitment ceremony. I was honored when she asked me to be her Maid of Honor. The book isn't bad or anything but it could use some updating. My sister said only some of the information was helpful to her. There aren't many books on the market for this topic though. So if you can't find anythign else it's worth buying.
