1) Paperback Book The Engaged Groom: You're Getting Married. Read this Book. by Collins Living. All of the other books for grooms are condescending, treat the groom like he´s an idiot, or warn him about his "bridezilla". This one´s the antithesis of all of that, and actually provides good information for the groom with a question about any part of the wedding. It doesn´t need to be read cover-to-cover, and provides a positive spin on handling tough situations.¤

2) Paperback Book The Engaged Groom: You're Getting Married. Read this Book. by Collins Living. My fiance and I (the Engaged Groom) are planning our wedding, and have less time than you´d normally have to make all our arrangements. We are also trying to be budget concious and not go overboard. So far there is nothing a-typical about our wedding. The Engaged Groom has been so very helpful of providing a good overview of what needs to be done, when, and how. I thought I had all the answers until I read this book. I feel better prepared now and have a much better grasp on where we can cut corners, and the do´s and don´ts of the wedding world....but primarily the message is, make sure you have the wedding YOU want, and not the wedding everyone TELLS YOU you need.....thanks Doug Gordon, your book is a life-saver.¤

3) Paperback Book The Engaged Groom: You're Getting Married. Read this Book. by Collins Living. I gave this to my future son-in-law so he wouldn´t feel so left out, but more importantly, so his mother would realize it´s my daughter´s wedding not hers. Worked both ways. I haven´t read it, but so far, so good.¤

4) Paperback Book The Engaged Groom: You're Getting Married. Read this Book. by Collins Living. My bride gave me this even though I didn´t think I´d help out too much. But I had a few questions and this really helped. It was funny, which helped, since any book that takes things too seriously wouldn´t work for me. I had questions about the budget, since I was paying for somethings and trying to figure out who would pay for the rest, and I also had questions about invitations, who to invite, etc. This worked for me. I will pass it on to friends when they get married.¤

5) Paperback Book The Engaged Groom: You're Getting Married. Read this Book. by Collins Living. This book has a lot of good practical advice, like when to get a marriage license. For someone getting married out of state, this was very helpful. I also thought some of the money-saving tips were unique and not your standard fare. There was a part on dealing with problem guests that has been very helpful since we´ve had to deal with a lot of these types of people and as the groom I usually have to smoothe over a few egos and play peacemaker. To top it off, there´s a great section about bachelor parties goes beyond other books and talks about how people really feel about strip clubs, both men and women.

To keep it interesting Gordon puts in a lot of funny stuff, like lists of songs that are inappropriate to play at a wedding and an answer to the question of whether or not throwing rice at a wedding is harmul to birds. (It´s not, but his explanation is really amusing and well written.)

I got this as a gift and thought it was really helpful, one source for all of my questions. Four months to go before my wedding and there´s still a lot I learned.¤

6) Paperback Book The Engaged Groom: You're Getting Married. Read this Book. by Collins Living.

Today´s groom expects and is expected to take on a large and often times equal role in the planning of the big event. The days of the husband–to–be just showing up with a nice suit on and having no idea of what went into the planning are long gone. This is not to say that the groom´s interests need to be the same as the bride´s. This book will help the groom to choose what interests them and works well with their talents. If it is not picking out the table cloths to match the flowers, than it could be working on the menu or the invitations or even designing the wedding website. For the groom who wishes to be actively involved and not be limited by traditional wedding elements, the book will suggest ways to create a modern wedding. For example turning the focus to the enjoyment of the guests and thinking of the day as a big party, while still respecting the wishes of the families.
