[.ocal Woman Writes Book

On Weddings

“This is a book bn how to plan a wedding without having a nervous breakdown or spending next year's income, It is a guide on how to have a good time in the midst of wedding welter; how to satisfy vour romantic soul and a5 sentimental as you always swore vou wouldn't be.” So Marjorie Binford Woods begins “Your Wedding, How to Plan and Enjoy It” That truly is ohly the beginning, for the book is a detailed guide for eitquette from the time the engagement announcement is made until the bride settles down to writing thank-you notes for wedding gfits. Spritely seems to be the best word to describe the way in which it is written—a welcome note in etiquette books. Mrs. Woods hasn't hesitated either to become informal and lapse into the use of that word “you” just as if she was across the desk from the bride-to-be in a bridal bureau. The fact is that she did head the bridal bureau at Block's which put her close to the problems that face brides and their parents from every walk in life. She has, thank heaven, not stood on ceremony and stuck to the rule just because it was once the proper thing to do. More than once, she drawe on the new, common-sense answers to questions on wedding etiquette. “Bridal bureaus,” she writes, “have debunked many of the old bugaboos that have frightened you into believing that vou MUST do this and you DARE NOT do that. They have discovered that the gracious anfl natural way of conducting a wedding is the correct way. That so long as details correspond, it isn’t so much what you do as the way you do it.”

Describes All Types

The book helps the reader to decide oh the type of wedding she will have — formal, semi-formal, club, hotel, church, garden, military, expensive or inexpensive—and then proceeds to tell what to do first, second, third, et cetera. There is even a week by week working schedule that keeps details moving on a well-organized plan. One of the novel features is a list of reminders which the bride-to-be can give the bridegroom-to-be, ending with “Don’t forget your wife when we get to the hotel! Mr. and Mre¢. is the way vou sign the register.” We like this one on the list she can give him: “I'll promise not to smear vou with lipstick if you'll remember to kiss me at the altar’

Includes Charts

Mrs, Woods has included with the] usual etiquette information some new and individual wedding arrangements and even a few sample menus to help in planning a wedding breakfast or supper. The book includes some very helpful diagrams and charts and is cleverly illustrated with black and white drawings by Jean Baker. Mrs. Woods has dedicated the book, her first, to her friend, Mrs. | Jessica Brown Mannon of Bubbs- | Merrill. Mrs. Woods was born in Green- | field, attended Indiana university {and then went to Washington where she did a shopping column for the | Washington Daily News and later was the paper's special edition’s leditor. She came back to Green | eld for her own wedding to Gerald |B. Woods, a schoolmate in Greenfield, who meanwhile had been |making football history at Butler university. | She served as society editor of} the Hollywood (Fla) Daily News| where they made their home, for) a time. Her other journalistic work includes the editing of hotel magazines, fashion work for Marshall Field & Co. in Chicago and fashion editor of The Times. She later became bridal consultant at Block's.
