Poet: Julie Hebert
You met the one you'd been waiting for,
He returned your love in full,
A wedding is next in your future,
May your happiness come by the bagful.
If you want children, may you have them.
As many as you want.
If you don't, may you not have any,
May you be the greatest aunt.
May your riches extend to more than money,
But may you always have what you need.
May you both contribute to your family,
And never find yourselves close to greed.
May you grow old with one another,
Still in love then, as you are now.
May you have trust in each other,
And stayed true to your spoken vows.
Many wishes for a great life to come,
Many who know you wish nothing less.
May your marriage be one of fairytales,
And may God always be near to bless.
Bridal Shower Poems
Poet: C. A. Lynch
If I could send you one wish
It would be for lifetime of happiness
We wish your upcoming wedding day
To be full of sunshine and loving rays.
May the coming years
Be full of smiles not tears
And together may you find
A love that grows stronger and binds.
Wedding wishes of peace and love
And blessings from God above
We send to you both today
Well wishes to send you on your way.
Bridal Shower Wishes
Poet: C. A. Lynch
May God shower you both with blessings;
A union blessed by His grace.
Your love, so pure, is Heaven's lesson,
As you embrace wedded space.
May your lives remain full of love and laughter
May God may watch over you both as one.
We pray for moments that last forever after
Filling each day with blessings from His Son.
Wedding Blessings
Poet: Harriet Farley
Heaven bless thy gentle bride,
Bless the husband at her side —
May your paths through life be free
From all that's woe to her and thee.
The joys to others ye bestow,
In thine own home may ye ever know;
Such pleasures in your bosoms live.
As ye to others often give.
Trials meet with chastened grace;
Look them calmly in the face;
Angels' wings you'll see unfurled,
They are from that better world;
On their pinions, far away.
To the realms of nightless day.
They will bear your souls away.
Oft, at nightfall, angels come
To the still, secluded home.
Clad in human wanderers' guise.
Blessing with a glad surprise.
When the morrow's sun shall rise,
And the heart that's open e'er
To the passing traveller,
Welcoming the wronged and lone,
Taking in the sorrowing one,
Giving hope and sympathy
With its boimdless charity.
Oft will find good angels stay,
Guard them to the coming day
Watching through each dangerous night.
Till the morrow dawneth bright.
To such angels, now, my friends.
Thee and thine my heart commends.
