Drawing on her own research as a psychologist and psychotherapist
conducted over two years with interviews in real life situations
the author provides an insight into the wedding experience from the
mother's point of view and explores the complexities of family
relationships that this rite of passage can expose. The book offers
the reader the chance to follow several women from different
cultural backgrounds through the time leading up to and beyond
their child's wedding. It is structured around three pivotal stages
of the wedding: the announcement of the engagement, the wedding
preparations, and the big day itself. The analysis of these
interviews forms the main part of the book. It follows the themes
emerging from these interviews and explores them placing them in
the context of thinking in analytic psychotherapy and family
therapy. The book will not so much help readers to avoid wedding
"stress", but rather help them to make sense of it.
