Here is the perfect gift for the happy couple--the first and only cookbook they will ever need. Best-selling authors Sara Corpening Whiteford and Mary Corpening Barber start the bride and groom off right with essential information on the equipment they'll need to begin cooking in their new home, as well as invaluable tips on getting the pantry stocked. Then they offer 125 recipes--those special dishes to turn to again and again. Ready to entertain the new in-laws? A weekend brunch featuring Sausage and Cheddar Cheese Strata comes together in a snap and is certain to impress. If something a little more romantic is in order, Brie and Champagne Fondue for Two shared in front of a roaring fire is as cozy as it gets. Everyday favorites like Classic Lasagna, Grilled Chicken with Roasted Red Pepper Salsa, and the impossible-to-resist Silken Chocolate Tart will have even inexperienced cooks looking like pros in the kitchen. Whether cooking on the fly with Dinners in a Dash-a meal on the table in 30 minutes or less: perfect for the working couple!--or hosting that first-ever holiday dinner, this is the cookbook newlyweds need to chop, peel, saut, and roast in harmony in the kitchen. Complete with beautiful photographs and menu ideas for special occasions (including the first anniversary), the Bride & Groom First and Forever Cookbook will have the happy couple-and their family and friends--eating well from this day forward.

  • Perfect Wedding Gift

    Loved the hard cover! Some of these recipes are fancy but others are very simple and perfect for a new couple. The chapters are broke down well and the book starts out with things to always have on hand in the pantry. I also enjoyed browsing through the chapter on throwing faily get togethers. I ordered this book and put it in a basket of kitchen items for a wedding gift. I plan on ordering more for future weddings.

    This is a wonderful cookbook that my husband and I got for an engagement gift. We have given it as gifts several times since then. Overstock has a great price on the book. The banana bread recipe is amazing as are many of the others. Apptizers, entrees, sauces, drinks, breakfast, and meal ideas!! Enjoy.

  • The Bride& Groom First and Forever Cookbook

    I bought this book for my daughter's bridal shower. Unfortunately, the mail service never got it delivered in a timely manner and it will now have to be part of her wedding gift. The book is beautiful! It is definitely one to be cherished for years to come. I do recommend this book for a gift to newlyweds.

  • Just in time for the June wedding season, Barber and Whiteford have collected 125 elegant recipes especially for newlyweds. These twin sisters, authors of Cocktail Food and Wraps, have good ideas for everyday meals and, as former owners of Thymes Two catering in San Francisco, they also have infectious enthusiasm for entertaining. Their book starts with chapters on assembling kitchen equipment and pantry staples, and moves on through "basic" recipes (such as stock and pie pastry) to appetizers, soups and salads, entrees, side dishes, sweets and drinks. Additional sections cover breakfast and brunch, quick dinners and desserts, holiday menu planning (with useful do-ahead timetables) and spouse-friendly selections for cooking "side by side." Their recipes can be complicated, however, posing difficulties for harried, first-time cooks. From Warm Artichoke and Green Onion Dip, Caesar Salad with Lemon-Pepper Shrimp, and Beef Burgundy, to Grilled Tuna with Soy Ginger Glaze and Pickled Cucumbers, Wild Mushroom Risotto, and Silken Chocolate Tart, the dishes blend classic with contemporary, formal with informal and cozy American with stylish International. The authors imbue their book with a friendly, Southern tone, which at times can feel old-fashioned. (June) Forecast: Judging by the traditional-looking cover (two monogrammed spoons against pastel table settings), the publisher is going for more moneyed brides-a market that they will surely tap into.
