For decades, bookstore pregnancy sections were dominated by books for women - until Quirk's "Baby Owner's Manual" presented a fun and refreshing alternative for male readers. Now the women-centric world of Wedding books is about to meet its male counterpart: "The Groom's Instruction Manual". Here's everything a groom needs to know for his big day - presented with clear instructions and a visual language that guys can understand.

A lighthearted look at a serious matter, going through most aspects of the whole process and not only the wedding itself (eg, how to choose a ring and how to propose). More or less this is a checklist of various bits and pieces you have to consider. Although it is all quite funny and with witty diagrams (think of a photographic camera instruction manual), there are plenty of nuggets of information and the authors are quite reasonable. It makes for a tidy small gift.

I bought this book about 3 months before my wedding, and really enjoyed reading it. The content is more appropriate if you are in the very early stages of arranging the wedding (before you even propose, in fact). However, what makes it good is the fact it is written specifically for men, and it definitely reads as such! Lots of funny stories, analogies and jokes. I particularly like the extensive section on buying flowers - 'No man should have any participation in picking the flowers for his wedding'. A great read - it has now been passed on to another friend getting ready for his big day. It would also make a good (all too awkward to find) small congratulatory wedding gift from a guy friend to a would-be groom, given the way it is written.

Bought this for a friend and it has caused some laughs but also contains great advice and useful tips on every stage of the wedding journey.
