 | This book is great!!! Feb 17, 2007 |
| I've really enjoyed this book because it tells about all kinds of traditions (both Christian and non-Christian) that we commonly see in weddings today! It's very informational and interesting!!! | | | | A must for anyone planning a wedding Jan 20, 2007 |
have this book and I've enjoyed it. I'm not sure why one reviewer here thought it was a wedding planning book. It is not.
This book looks at wedding traditions (some well-known, others not) and where they come from. I've read a lot of the wedding myth type websites, too, but there's lots of new or rarely seen information in this book. For example, the author points out that while some traditions are usually traced to pagan cultures, they can be traced back to early Christian or Jewish cultures. Not all the traditions are Judeo-Christian in origin, but a surprising number are.
Also, I love the information about unity candles. Usually, you hear they developed from a soap opera, but the author explains that this isn't true and why.
These are just some examples of information you don't usually see online or in wedding books.
The information is arranged alphabetically within these categories: pre-ceremony traditions, wedding ceremony traditions, and post-ceremony traditions. There's also an index.
Overall, a fun book to read, especially if you're getting married. | | |  | This book is a waste of money Jan 5, 2007 |
| I bought this book thinking that it would add some insight while planning my upcoming wedding. Boy, was I wrong! All the information could be found by searching the Internet. The layout is pretty lame, and it was hard for me to look things up without reading entire sections to find the information. I can't even justify giving it one star. Spend your money on a better book. | | | Write your own review about Carry Me Over the Threshold: A Christian Guide to Wedding Traditions
