The Complete Guide for the Anxious Groom: How to Avoid Everything That Could go Wrong on Her Big Day

by Steven Lewis

Although men traditionally set the marital ball in motion once the knee has hit the floor and the stuttering question is popped, the momentum quickly shifts into the control of the bride and her mother-or the indecipherable orchestrations of a wedding coordinator named Franz. From that point on, the future groom is typically clueless about the responsibilities and rights of the male partner during the wedding planning process. The Complete Guide for the Anxious Groom is a wry, informative, entertaining book for the husband-to-be on what to do, why to do it, and how to go about getting it done. Written in plain, "man-to-man" English, this unique guide is an easy-reading mix of anecdotes, hard facts and no-nonsense advice on making the engagement and wedding periods as happy and winning as they should be.

[Gary Allen · Rating 4 out of 5]

I wrote a smallportion of this, but don't think it's proper to rate one's own books.

(the other parts, however, are brilliant)
