This is not your father's wedding...

From choosing china patterns and invitation designs to color schemes and reception halls, today's grooms are expected to play a much more active role in wedding planning than when their dads walked down the aisle.

The Clueless Groom's Guide offers the 3 million men who get married each year lighthearted commiseration, guidance, and a distinctly male take on the entire process of planning a traditional wedding. Filled with humorous but useful advice and information on wedding issues, this essential guide covers:

• Buying the ring that'll make her say yes
• Dealing with the future in-laws in a way that will preserve the groom's sanity
• Planning the budget without draining anyone's account
• Negotiating a guest list with the bride, her family, and his family
• Navigating the all-important bachelor party
• And much more !

This charmingly illustrated book will not only help guys understand what they're in for--but give them a sorely needed chuckle along the way.

This is not your father's wedding . . .

Congratulations on your engagement, my clueless friend, and welcome to a world for which you are sadly ill equipped. You have entered a new dimension. A dimension of china patterns, ice swans, and boutonnieres. You're planning a wedding, and your fianceé expects more from you than a diamond ring and a blood test. So, you'd better get up to speed--and fast.

From the best proposal to the coolest honeymoon, The Clueless Groom's Guide offers light-hearted commiseration, guidance, and a distinctly male take on the entire process of planning a traditional wedding. It gives you a sorely needed chuckle and some surprisingly useful advice to help you get through the many decisions your bride-to-be will pretend to want your opinion on, including:

• How and where to pop the question--and when to cue the mariachi band
• Why engagements of over two years are justified only by extended commitments to the armed forces and/or unusually long jail sentences
• How to pick groomsmen gifts and groomsmen who almost deserve them
• Reception sites that offer style and originality . . . and why you should avoid them like the plague.
• And far more than you should ever rightly know about weddings
