Inspired by her daughter's desire to have a wedding reflective of her roots. Bridget Haggerty combed Irish history and culture to bring together a selection of amusing and appropriate, sophisticated and simple ways to bring an Irish flourish to any wedding. In this revised and updated version of the first edition, the author has added sections on getting married in Ireland and ideas for a vow renewal “with the sound and feel of Ireland.” While the original content is still very much intact, readers will discover that changes have been made throughout the book. For example, the reception chapter now includes the fascinating story behind the origins of Irish Coffee. Also, in the chapter on attire, information has been added about the kilt and its proper wearing. 224 pages, soft cover.
