so we are putting in a poem into invites asking for money instead of gifts. just to give you a bit of background, H2B is in army and he is being posted to Northern Ireland in January and we are getting married in march and moving straight into married quarters when get back from honeymoon and we dont want to take lots of stuff over with us as we only have room for whatever fits in 2 cars along with the dog. H2B insists that he didnt want the normal gift poem and he wanted to change it so it explained that we werent being cheeky about asking for money but we really just cant take anything with us - but in true man-style he said that he couldnt think of anything.
so ive come up with this... the second paragraph needs needs improving i think...any ideas? thanks in advance xxx
We haven’t got a Wedding List The Reasons we’ll explain It’s to save you all the Hassle As Shopping is a Pain
As some of you may know We are moving to Northern Ireland We cant take anything with us So we hope you understand
We thought we’d ask you all For something else instead A small contribution Towards a sofa or a bed
So if you’d like to Contribute Towards our new home We offer you our heartfelt thanks With Love the Bride and Groom xxx

As some of you know we are moving away so all old stuff is here to stay
when we arrive we`ll need to shop from beds to sofa where will it stop ?
gifts from you will help us be a very happy family
Tomorrow is never promised to anyone, So Dance until your
feet ache, Laugh until your side hurts,
Say I Love You to those you love
For tomorrow may never come x
