CommentAuthorMrsH-2B
These are my favourite wedding hymns, the two I would've chosen if I was getting married in a Church :-)
Come To A Wedding
Come to a wedding, Come to a blessing, Come on a day when happiness sings! Come rain or sun, Come winter or summer, Celebrate love and all that it brings.
Thanks for the love, That holds us together, Parent and child, and lover and friend; Thanks to the God, Whose love is our centre, Source of compassion, knowing no end.
Love is the gift, And love is the giver, Love is the gold that Makes the day shine; Love forgets self to care for the other, Love changes life from water to wine.
Come to this wedding, Asking a blessing, For all the years that living will prove; Health of the body, Health of the spirit, Now to you both we offer our love.
One More Step Along the World I Go
One more step along the world I go, One more step along the world I go. From the old things to the new Keep me travelling along with you.
Chorus And it's from the old I travel to the new, Keep me travelling along with you.
Round the corners of the world I turn, More and more about the world I learn. All the new things that I see You'll be looking at along with me.
Chorus
As I travel through the bad and good Keep me travelling the way I should. Where I see no way to go You'll be telling me the way, I know.
Chorus
Give me courage when the world is rough, Keep me loving though the world is tough. Leap and sing in all I do, Keep me travelling along with you.
Chorus
You are older than the world can be, You are younger than the life in me. Ever old and ever new, Keep me travelling along with you.
Chorus

I love that first hymn, the words are lovely. the second one reminds me of being in school and singing it in assembly. X
CommentAuthorMrsH-2B
Hehe, thats how I know the second one toooooo !! But I think it's also the journey you'll be taking with your H2B, so it pleases the vicar and means something within the actual relationship :-) xxx

I had trouble picking ours too. I had about 6 or 7 that I loved and had to pick just 2 . We used the CoE website too its very good also for readings. We picked morning had broken and give me joy in my heart. xx
CommentAuthorFernP61
I've left my h2b to organise this as he is a undertaker so he knows every hymn x
CommentAuthorValentinaK

CommentAuthorNic8187
Were having lord of the dance and one more step along the world I go - remember these as school and they are quite chirpy hymns. As a lot of the other ladies have advised the CofE's website is really helpful :) x
CommentAuthorMattsBride
We've chosen all things bright and beautiful and lord of the dance. The first because everyone knows it and the second because we want it to be happy and upbeat not too dreary
