Readings

jen52637, 2 September, 2009 at 19:53 Posted on Planning 0 2

I know this has been done a million times but I'm needing inspiration. We're having Corinthians 13 as our first reading but would like another one.

We thought of 'The Art of a Good Marriage' but that limits the number of people who can read it since they would kinda have to be married to do it. I also thought of the Captain Corelli's Mandolin one but H2B isn't so keen on that one.

Any suggestions please? ?

    Oh, and I also meant to ask- I would like 2 of my friends to do the second reading.

    Would you think it strange if two people did one reading together? Not reciting the words together but doing one verse each kind of thing.

    Chapter One of One Thousand

    By O.J.Preston

    For two people this dawn brought on a magical day

    Now husband and wife they head on their way

    As a boat setting sail may their journey begin

    With calmest of waters, most helpful of wind

    And if they should stumble upon turbulent sea

    May it pass them unharming – leave them be.

    For here are two people whom love has well bitten

    Here opens their book which has yet to be written

    As the first page unfolds and their life inks its path

    May it write a true story where forever love lasts

    Let their journey be happy till death do they part

    Of one thousand chapters may this be the start.

    and

    On Your Wedding Day
    Author Unknown

    Today is a day you will always remember
    The greatest in anyone's life
    You'll start off the day just two people in love
    And end it as Husband and Wife

    It's a brand new beginning the start of a journey
    With moments to cherish and treasure
    And although there'll be times when you both disagree
    These will surely be outweighed by pleasure

    You'll have heard many words of advice in the past
    When the secrets of marriage were spoken
    But you know that the answers lie hidden inside
    Where the bond of true love lies unbroken

    So live happy forever as lovers and friends
    It's the dawn of a new life for you
    As you stand there together with love in your eyes
    From the moment you whisper 'I do'

    And with luck, all your hopes, and your dreams can be real
    May success find it's way to your hearts
    Tomorrow can bring you the greatest of joys
    But today is the day it all starts.
