Ceremony Readings?

Hannah, on October 19, 2020 at 5:16 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 9

Hey all,

I've seen a number of posts about readings on here, which got me thinking. How many of you are having or did have readings? Were they religious or secular? Who did you ask to give the readings?

I'd love to hear what you all are planning!

    We had one reading at our rehearsal dinner and one at our wedding. At the rehearsal, my brother read a passage from the Bible. At the ceremony, my grandmother read a poem she wrote for us. I'm not sure what your third question is asking..

    Whoops, thanks for catching the typo! I fixed it. Also, that's so sweet that your grandmother wrote you two a poem!

    You're welcome! She has written me several poems throughout my life. She also wrote us a poem for our one year wedding anniversary. I had asked her if she would want to do a reading because her and I are really close and she asked if there was something specific I had in mind and I said she could either read us something generic or write something unique for us. She choose to write a poem.

    We're planning on two readings! They'll be more fun/lighthearted readings. We're planning to ask two of our friends to read at the ceremony.

    My brother picked out four readings for my sister’s wedding and died before my wedding. My sister and brother-in-law each read one of the readings that wasn’t selected for my sister’s wedding.

    My mom just passed away this year so we decided to use one of her poems about love for our ceremony reading. I think we’ll probably have my little brother do the reading but haven’t set it in stone yet.

    I have two adult daughters who will each be reading during our ceremony. I wanted to involve them some how.
