Readings for Weddings
We've searched long and hard for a good book containing suitable readings for our wedding - this contains all the classics, plus gems that we would never have found otherwise. Thanks!
Synopsis
Readings for Weddings is an inspirational collection of Bible quotations, poems, hymns and prose for secular weddings, church weddings and ceremonies and also services of blessing. Mark Oakley includes such weddings classics as 1 Corinthians 13 and Khalil Gibran's The Prophet, the poetry of Shelley and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and verse by Wendy Cope and other witty, contemporary poets.
This is the ideal resource for couples planning their wedding ceremony, whether in church or in a registry office.
"Readings for Weddings puts poetry where it should be: at the heart of a great defining moment. Mark Oakley's selection is exemplary: surprising but appropriate, tender but unsentimental, dignified but vivacious. Every happy couple, let alone their guests, will be grateful."
Andrew Motion, Poet Laureate
