Did you ever hear about a book with a great idea and think why didn't I think of that? Than you pick it up and realize that it was so brilliantly executed that you could never have nearly that clever so just sit back and laugh your head off? That is pretty much how you'll feel if you pick up "Weddings of the Times."

Recommends it for:
broadminded people already familiar with wedding announcements.

My favorites include the corrections section, the wedding with no guests, "10 years later" section, recurring jokes of laude and summa cum laude, the wedding that only happened in t...more

I would rate this book, but in order to do so I would have to give it 1 star. It was absolutely TERRIBLE! I don't recommend anyone read or buy it. It is a complete waste of time. It is supposed to be a funny and I wanted to cry rather than laugh.
Not as funny as I thought it would be, nevertheless mildly entertaining
A more than passable way to spend an hour.
I received this as an engagement gift!
This book cracked me up. It's such a short read, it's definitely worth spending a night having a good laugh.
