Publisher's Synopsis

"An account that is sweetly sentimental and brutally honest, touching and witty-in short, a true gem." -Publishers Weekly, starred review "A work that adds great luster to an already golden event." - The Memphis Commercial Appeal "Her prose is spare, but rich with meaning and always very honest." - The Cleveland Plain Dealer "Pithy wit and cute drawings sketch the happy tears, bittersweet memories and flares of anxiety that a daughter's wedding elicits." - The Dallas Morning News The relationship between a mother and daughter is often fraught- but never so much as during the preparations for that walk down the aisle. Ilene Beckerman has taken that walk with three daughters and tells us-with great wisdom and wit-why childbirth is less painful than planning a wedding.
