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 they'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 its way to your hearts Tomorrow can bring you the greatest of joys But today is the day it all starts
This is the one im using in my civil ceremony - i think its quite cute xxx
Happily Married! :) xxx

Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Those that truly love, have roots that grow towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.
this is mine

i cant stand soppy poems so think we are going for this-
Wedding Day by Robert Palmer
The day of your wedding is a time to reflect On the things you can hope for And the things to expect
You could hope for great riches Huge bundles of cash But then lose it all In a stock market crash
Or you could hope for A life of great ease With the time and the money To do as you please
But its better to hope for The good things in life Like a lon happy life As husband and wife
Like the smile and the kiss As you walk through the door And the baby that wakes you at quater to 4
And a life of variety With sunshine and rain And frosties for breakfast instead of champagne
Expect times of anger The occaisonal huff Because no one annoys you Like the one that you love
But dont look for problems That the future may bring Just to love and be loved Is a wonderful thing
Lifes not all plain sailing Not always a ball But I know you'll be happy Because love conquers all
