Customer Reviews

Funny but correct info

I got this book for my son, but my wife and I could not put it down. This book may not have all of the lists and such, but it sure is funny. I would recommend you get a more serious book to use as a guide, but don't pass up this book if you need a good laugh!

A good resource

This is a good one for grooms to be out there. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is that it's already a little old. For a more up to date book, try The Engaged Groom. I bought a few books and found both books to be the best out there. Lots of helpful advice beyond the typical advice on what to wear and how to stay out of the way.

a must for the groom

I absolutely loved this book and will be giving it to all my groom-to-be friends. Witty and ultimately wise, this succinct guide offers valuable information about everything from the entire engagement up unto the Big Day that any man will find useful. Not cutesy or overly macho, this book strikes the right balance in offering advice to make the man the best groom he can be.

A great gift for a freind about to walk down the isle.

Although this is a humorous book, the advice it gives isn't bad. If you are getting married in the next year, definitely buy this book. It mostly gives humorous, but very true advice on weddings, wedding etiquette and married life. It also gives some truly funny marriage advice like don't get so much life insurance that "you're worth more to them dead than alive....seriously watch your back."So if you like the droll sensibilities of the editors Esquire Magazine and you're even remotely thinking of getting married, but this book. Think of it this way, even if you call off the wedding, this book is will still give you a few guffaws.

This book is HYSTERICAL!

I happened to find this book in a bookstore while browsing, and since I just had a good friend get engaged, I bought it for her new fiance. I was actually laughing out loud because while it provides current and valuable advice for the soon-to-be-groom, it does so with lots of humor and wit. This is a perfect gift for any newly-engaged guy...as my new husband often tells me, too many gifts are geared towards the female half of the couple, and it's only fair to get the guy something once in a while. Buy this book!
