I love receiving feedback from satisfied clients! The below poem was commissioned by the bride’s sister as a surprise; to be read out during the civil ceremony. I was informed the bride and groom are a fun loving couple; not serious or mushy at all – so it was a splash of humour and a dash of sincerity – my speciality!
The poem made them cry tears of love and laughter – Operation Jeanette and Paul accomplished!
Much love x
Jeanette & Paul’s Wedding Day ~ Friday 5th August 2011
Welcome to today's celebration
5th August 2011
As we celebrate the new life, of husband and wife
Jeanette and Paul – a match made in heaven!
It's a beautiful ode of a couple bestowed
In marriage, till death do you part
For better or worse, let me rewind this verse
Back 22 years, to the start!
Well lads and lasses, it was collecting glasses
At the local back in '89
When their eyes first met and Paul wooed Jeanette
At closing, with pork scratchings and wine!
A romantic Blue Nose, Paul began to propose
Every year for the next 20 or so,
But was always met, with the same answer from Net,
"I'm not ready to be Mrs Robbo!!!!"
Was it the engagement ring, that made her heart sing
Not one, not two - but three?!!!!
Or the fact they just click and she can cherry pick
A lifetime of taxi rides - for free!
Macca had her soul mate; so they set the date
A day planned with precision and care,
Every detail and bit - from Aqua Fit
...To keeping Sharon away from her hair!
A shared passion in their romance, they love to dance
They’ve swept each other off their feet
And will party till dawn from the Registry lawn
…Down to the Huyton Civic Suite!
Our groom and bride have glowed with pride
In the roles you play here today
Best Men - Michael and Adam
And Thomas - for giving your Mum away
Let no man put asunder, here’s to James down under
Luke, Cian and Millie’s special roles too
Melissa the beautiful bridesmaid; Mal you couldn’t persuade
Net to let you be bridesmaid too?!!
First and foremost, today we’ll toast
Absent family we dearly miss
And for the epilogue, Roley the dog
Sends a big fat doggy kiss!
If there's one thing you take from this wedding keepsake,
From ‘your sis’ - please let it be this
Today is your beginning of always and ever
A lifetime of happiness and bliss!
So here's to Mr and Mrs Robinson
Who we all love more than you know
To love, laughter, and a happy ever after
Congratulations Mr & Mrs Robbo!
