Marriage Poetry verse #1

Wedding poem / verse to son / daughter

Today (dear Son), as you walk down the aisle
You'll see all the faces wearing a smile.
But as we remember those young tender years
Our smiles will conceal a few hidden tears.
They're not tears of sorrow, but tears full of joy
As we're both thinking back to our dear little boy
And now you have grown up and made us so proud
As you smile for the camera and the rest of the crowd
Remember dear (name) as you take your new wife
You're still very much a part of our life!
We're gaining a daughter. not losing a son,
You're new lives as husband and wife have begun
So be blissfully happy and enjoy your 'Big Day'
Have a wonderful marriage with a rose strewn way!

Today (dear daughter), as you walk down the aisle
You'll see all the faces wearing a smile.
But as we remember those young tender years
Our smiles will conceal a few hidden tears.
It isn't through sadness , our emotions just whirl
As we're both thinking back to our dear little girl
And now you have grown and made us so proud
As you smile for the camera and the rest of the crowd
Remember dear (name) as you become a new wife
You're still very much a part of our life!
We're not losing a daughter, we are gaining a son,
You're new lives as husband and wife have begun
So be blissfully happy and enjoy your 'Big Day'
Have a wonderful marriage with a rose strewn way!

As you become a wife
Since from the day that you were born

This comes with love to my Wonderful

Poem From Bride to Groom

(Jeremy) have a lovely day
As you enter Paradise
Look out for the girl in the big white frock
You'll find her very nice

Take your place by her side
Squeeze her hand with a loving touch
Say "I do" and she will too
For she loves you very much

She knows that you love her too
And that you'll always be her rock
This card, it comes with the fondest love
From the girl in the big white frock

A full moon on a dark night,
And the road downhill all the way to your door.

Remain true and strong
As you start on life's highway

Congratulations, King and Queen
From your loyal, courageous Knight

Marriage is so much more interesting than divorce,
Because it's the only known example of the happy meeting of the immovable object and the irresistible force.
So I hope husbands and wives will continue to debate and combat over
everything debatable and combatable,
Because I believe a little incompatibility is the spice of life, particulary if
he has income and she is pattable.

Ogden Nash

If marriage were outlawed
Only outlaws would have in-laws

Niagra Falls, on a honeymoon,
Is the bride's second great disappointment.

Never go to sleep
On an argument
Just get used to
Going without sleep
For 2 or 3 weeks at a time

On this your special day, remember
Love is grand
Divorce, a hundred grand

Put a penny in a pot every time you make love

DOCTOR AND AROMATHERAPIST / ONE IS NEWCASTLE SUPPORTER, THE OTHER SUPPORTS SUNDERLAND

Congratulations Samantha and Alan
On this your wedding day
Would it happen this Millennium?
We've heard some cynics say

But it's been a well structured plan
Head ruling heart
Besides, courting ain't easy
Four hundred miles apart

When one went north, the other south
To feed your hungry brains
Richard Branson spotted a winner
And set up Virgin trains

Now you've cornered the healing market
Very shrewd, that's for sure
You've got modern medical science
And Nature's old time cure

Ailments don't stand a chance
That could not be clearer
There's drugs or the knife..have you met the wife?
She's got Aloe Vera

You really make a perfect team
Team? oh no we've spotted a catch
Can you try to avoid coming to blows
Every derby match

We're very proud of both of you
On this your special day
God bless you both and best of luck
Dr. and Mrs. A...

FOR WEDDING DAY POEM / SPEECH / SCROLL
Wedding Verses
Poetry verse #16

Congratulations Samantha and Alan
On this your wedding day
Would it happen this Millennium?
We've heard some cynics say

A man behaving badly
Unkempt and a bit of a scruff
Met a spick and span young lady
Who fancied a bit of rough

He acted like greased lightning
Dynamic, you know the kind
XX years that's all it took
For Alan to make up his mind

Let's face it, Sam wasn't choosy
She admits it to herself
No spring chicken she feared that she'd
Be left up on the shelf

But despite major differences
The pair found common ground
For example, his big bum matches her big nose
Or is it the other way round?

They share a love of (foreign hols)
They're (XYZ )and (AB) fans
Love flourished and so the two of them
Hatched their wedding plans

While Samantha thinks of kissing
When Alan's lips are pursed
His mind is on a can of Bud
To quench his prodigious thirst

And so in the Summer of ( 2007 )
The (Scouser) took his (Geordie) wife
Good luck you whirlwind romantics
Have a long and happy life

Wedding Verses

Congratulations (John and Amanda)
On your marriage, just a few hours old
Weren't the children well behaved?
Even (Alan) was as good as gold

It's 10 years since they met
And today, finally, he's managed to trap her
Starting out at the Ship, they've ended in the harbour
Here in Ayia Napa

Six years they were a-courting
'Would she ever leave home?' Alan would fret
You see she worked days and he worked nights
So they hardly ever met

Alan dropped hints to Amanda
Your own love nest would be nice
And eventually they moved to (Oakwood)
(112), to be precise

And there they started begatting
And all that luvvy dovey stuff
They must have been good coz in no time at all
(Amanda) was up the duff

Along came young (Daniel and Nathan)
To make their family complete
Or is it? Who knows what'll happen
The honeymoon starts the neet!

Well, that's the potted history
So all that remains to say
Is thanks a lot (John and Amanda)
For a really smashin' day

We all agree the bride is beautiful
Like a queen from a golden palace
She walked down the aisle Miss Nicholson
And back up it Mrs Allis

And if we didn't thank the bridesmaids
We really would fail
(Sophie) and (Hannah) you're beautiful
Like Princesses from a fairy tale

We should thank best man Harry
And Alan, the bride giver away
And the mothers Lynne and Shirley
Thanks for all you've done today

And thanks too to John the groom
Looking handsome as can be
And not forgetting the fat bloke reading the poem
So that's a thanks a lot to me

And finally...let's raise our glasses
To toast the stars of today
Have a very long and happy life
Mr and Mrs A

Wedding Invitations for a couple who have lived together where a monetary gift would be more appropriate

Wedding Verses
Poetry verse #18

You're invited to our wedding
When we both say "I do"
And, as you know, we've been "I doing"
(For at least a year or two)
or (For quite some time, that's true)

Therefore there's no wedding list
The household things we need are few
So if you're thinking of a wedding gift
Money's the practical thing to do

Suggest the couple then hand write

Cheques must be accompanied by a bankers card or Used fivers under the park bench
or By the wheelbarrow load, please

Marriage Poetry verse #19

This invites you to witness
(Name and Name) say ''I Do''
If you wish to give something
Here's a clue for you

Be it kettle or toaster,
They do have the lot
So rather than give them
Something they've got...

Larger items are needed
And on these they must spend
So cash is appreciated,
Hope this doesn't offend

Wedding Verses
Poetry verse #20

We'd love you to come to our wedding
We look forward to seeing you there.
But please could you do us a favour?
And show us you really do care.
We have all the toasters we needed
And kettles are easy to find
Bed linen we have in abundance
And clocks that we don't have to wind
The glasses we have are quite lovely
And the cutlery still has it's shine
The ornaments all have their places
And the furniture all looks just fine.
The white ware is even still gleaming
The microwave cooks up a treat
The washer is still quite effective
And the iron still keeps our clothes neat.
So if you'd like to give us a present
Save a trip to the shops or the net
It's the money we'd rather be getting
And its easier to wrap it, we bet.
So please come help join us together
Help celebrate our special day
But please don't come loaded with boxes
They would only get in our way!

Wedding Poems Verses Quotes
Poetry verse #21

Unsure in our minds, of what we may need,
Not wanting to offend, or show any greed,
We have the essentials to be living in sin,
A kettle, a toaster, and even a bin.
So , vouchers are requested, in order to proceed,
With the purchases that we, will eventually need.

_________

The date has been set and we'd love you to come,
To our wedding in (place name), a long way for some,
All you must do, is decide what to wear,
Then polish your jewellery and comb up your hair.

Don't worry about gifts, don't buy us a yacht,
The things that we need, we've already got.
Our home is quite compact, we may have to move
Then our storage and space will surely improve.

Don't go out shopping or get yourself stressed,
Don't alter your plans for a pre wedding rest.
If you want to be generous, despite what we've said,
Then save all the hassle and do this instead.....

Don't know how to word this but will give it our best shot..
Contributions are most welcome, we'll go somewhere hot!
A honeymoon would be marvellous, to start off our life,
In our long winding journey, as new husband and wife!
Thank you
