    I'd speak to your wedding co-ordinator, I think you could have them wherever you wanted, but I'm not 100% on that :/ sorry

    Ive seen a few weddings with poems and they did theirs before the exchange of rings, in doing so it gave an extra special touch to the actual ceremony and added emotion to it, but its up to you really its your wedding and you should do what ever feels best to make it your day to remember

    met 11th December 2010
    engaged 2nd August 2013
    getting married to the love of my life 11th july 2015

    Our registrar sent us a booklet to pick the wording of vows, music choices etc and there was approx 3 points during the ceremony where we could have had readings/poems. I'd ask your registrar if they have something similar cos it really helped us

    We will have a reading/poem but this will be done before the exchanging of vows/rings as I think that it's the last thing to be done
