The unique wedding guide focuses on
brides who are getting married for
the first-time or remarried later in
life. The author of the book,
Shelley Christiansen, was married
for the first-time at age 46.
The book addresses circumstances
that older brides encounter when
getting married. Some are unique to
their age and some are common to
all brides. Some of the subjects covered include:
engagement, family reactions,
ex's reactions, motherhood, careers,
prenups, wills, showers, bachelor
parties and surnames.
Information provided in the
book that involves planning the
wedding includes: the rehearsal dinner,
the guest list, invitations, wedding dresses,
attire, vows, flowers,
photos, video, reception, wedding cake
and managing gifts.
For each topic addressed, Christiansen
also includes a handy quick reference list of
points to consider.
She also addresses some issues to deal
with after the wedding, including living
together, privacy issues, meddling,
where to live and what to do with all the
stuff. This is a truly valuable guide for women getting
married later in life.
