Synopsis
What premarital advice should a mother give her daughter who knows more about sex and stock portfolios than she does? Can the groom's step-grandparents march down the aisle as part of the wedding procession? How can your cousin get ordained on the Internet to perform the ceremony? Sharp, sensible answers to these and myriad other questions can be found in this witty, brass-tacks survival manual for the 21st-century mother of the bride. Hilarious anecdotes and practical advice abound as well as wise counsel and helpful hints from a mum who's been there. From deciphering the mysteries of wedding food to learning to understand florist-speak, from picking a suitable mother-of-the- bride outfit (without looking like a Red Hot Mama, or worse, your grandmother in lavender and lace) - to keeping a sense of humour when what can go wrong does, this down-to-earth guide makes a perfect gift for every mother who is a nuptial impresario at heart, determined to give her daughter the wedding of her dreams.
