Customer Reviews

A joyous book, loving, gorgeous and full of charm

I loved this wonderful collection of stories and photographs about the weddings in the Kennedy family history. In a way, they are America's family (warts and all!) and to see a hundred years worth of fashion, fashions and celebrating was a joy from cover to cover.I read Mr. Mulvaney's other book, JACKIE HER CLOTHES OF CAMELOT and bought this one as well...it's a complete delight and will make a lovely gift to my friends as they get married.Well done Jay Mulvaney!

Highly Recommended

Here's a book of captivating photographs and stories about the wedding celebrations and private relationships of a very public American family. I found myself remembering special moments from weddings of my own friends and family. My wife and I were young newlyweds along with Jack & Jackie. You DO remember 'where you were when...' Reading this book together was a pleasant way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

I saw this book on the TODAY SHOW and had to buy it.

Jay Mulvaney was on the TODAY show talking about this wonderful book all full of photographs from all the different Kennedy weddings...and it was so nice to finally see a happy book about the Kennedy family. The book is wonderful...it's got so many pictures, but also tells the whole story of the family and the many wonderful things they've done throughout the years. My favorite family was the Shrivers...they are so gorgeous, Maria of course, but also her brothers Anthony, Mark and Timothy. There are lots of stories and anecdotes from each of the weddings, and you get to see some honeymoon photos and pictures of wedding gifts and so many private photographs of the Kennedys. a MUST HAVE for anyone who likes the Kennedys and who likes weddings.

Delicious

Sometimes I love the Kennedys, sometimes I wish they'd all go away on an extended retreat. But I've got to admit that this book was an absolute lovefest that I couldn't put down. The fact that Mulvaney had such amazing access to their most intimate moments is astounding--I'd love to know how he did it. Great pix, lively text, and a very good-looking bunch of people. As much fun as eating a pint of ice cream at one sitting!

Excellent

For all Kennedy lovers, this book is fantastic. There are a lot of never before seen pictures of Jack and Jackie and the rest of the clan. Very intresting information on each wedding. A definite must have if you collect anything Kennedy.
