My 12 year old Neice wants to do a reading at our ceremony and I have found this, and made some alterations to it, could you lovely ladies please let me know what you think, I am open to suggestions if any of you would change anything, sorry its long xx
If you go to a wedding, here’s what it means No one wears trainers and no one wears jeans Your best new clothes are all that you wear And everyone you know in your whole family is there
Even some cousins that you’ve never known And the grown ups all say “Oh, how much you have grown!” So everyone’s sitting in one big room except Auntie Sarah and Uncle Neil, the bride and groom
Then all of a sudden things quieten down The music starts playing and people turn round And really slowly, Auntie Sarah walks in she’s prettier now than she’s ever been.
She’s a bride and she looks really great today when normally she looks just kind of okay She walks in and stands with grandad for a while As Uncle Neil, her boyfriend, awaits in the aisle
His hair is all combed and he’s wearing a tie And Mama Netty starts to sniffle and cry. Now it is time for the “get-married” part The Registrar says that we’re ready to start
So she talks and she talks about serious things Then the best man steps up holding two rings He gives one to the groom and the other to the bride he failed to talk Neil out of this, but he really did try
Then Sarah and Neil kind of look at each other And another big sniffle comes from Neil’s mother its time for them to put on their wedding rings And they talk and they promise each other some things
They promise that they’ll love each other a lot And help one another no matter what And be with each other the rest of their life Then the Registrar says “Now you are husband and wife”.
Then everyone’s in such a big happy mood And you go to a party where there’s lots of food you dance with some grown-ups and drink some wine And then do the conga-dance in one long line
Then Sarah and Neil drive off in a car and everyone’s saying how happy they are we all shout goodbye and throw handfuls of rice Then the whole thing is over... i love Weddings... there nice!

That'll go down a treat! My first thoughts were that its very long so she'll have to be quite a confident individual to carry it off well, and I was going to suggest you could crop it a bit for her, but if she's been practicing and seems to be getting on well with it then I'm sure she'll do a brilliant job even if she is a bit nervous! x

Yeah I was worried it was a bit long but i dont know which bits to cut out, i did wonder about the last 2 verses and just have the last line as "now your husband and wife"??? x
