Author: Becky Butler
ISBN: 9780931188923

Whether you are planning a ceremony of your own or simply want to look into the lives of lesbians who have taken this affirming step, Ceremonies of the Heart is the perfect book to read and savor. Filled with ideas on creating unique rituals, the book describes the transformative experiences of twenty-seven lesbian couples who celebrated their relationships in wide-ranging ways - from a gala weddings with gowns and cake to a high-spirited Buddhist event under desert skies. Join Noreen and Helen for their "Tryst of the Slothwoman Coven", Rosanne and Judy's "Brit Ahavah" under the chuppah, Kilby and Janet's "Almost Traditional Catholic Wedding", Deborah and Zandra's tender "Mi Casa Es Tu Casa" celebration, and many more. A book that says yes to lesbian identity and culture - and to a new definition of family - Ceremonies of the Heart is a joyous affirmation of passionate and enduring love between women.
