I loved her other book so was very excited to read this one. I had no idea this was a book about Jewish weddings. I thought it was going to be a fiction book with the characters having a Jewish wedding.

I love Anita Diamante and this book does not disappoint. The Jewish Wedding Now is a revised and updated version. It goes over everything one would need to know to have and prepare for a Jewish wedding. Great book.

Part of my workload as a high school teacher is a course called Ethics and Religious Culture. I completely approached this book from a teaching perspective as I am always looking out for new resources about different religious traditions and their various rites of passage. This is an updated current version of a book that the author originally wrote in 1985. The layout, complete with illustrations, and user friendly language, makes this book accessible to students. Readers wishing to delve deeper into religious texts might want to look elsewhere, but this book is a good introduction.

Recommended to anyone interested to understand this important moment of the Jewish life circle or looking to understand the latest changes under the impact of the great society changes - and challenges. Well-written and covering all the main aspects related to the Jewish wedding.
