Title: Outdated Emily Post
Review: I thought this book would be a fun gift for my bridesmaids. I bought one copy and realized that it was more of an instructional manual with tips on where bridesmaid's stand in the processional etc. (information we will cover at the wedding rehersal).Other tips include a shower game called "The Clothespin Game," which is so outdated my grandmother must've played it at showers when she was young. Mrs. Cleaver or Aunt Bee would be perfect hostesses for this type of game. I can't see anyone born post 1940 being entertained.Overall this book reads like an outdated Emily Post primer filled with information which is obvious. The title is cute, and had me expecting the book to be cute. The attempt at engaging the reader consists of a series of "war" metaphors. I thought this book would bore my bridesmaids, so I chose not to give it.
