I read the Creative Jewish Wedding book and thought it was so-so. I have a lot of friends who have read Anita Diamant’s book and consider it the Jewish wedding bible!
I really loved Anita Diamant’s book when planning my own Jewish wedding in July 2008 (Almost our first anniversary soon!).
Very resourceful – thanks you!
