Great poets utilize words to bring thoughts and feelings to life, so what better occasion than your wedding to recite one aloud? Determine your preferred style to obtain the best marriage poems for you and your partner.

Do you want a rhyming phrase? Do you prefer a more modern free-verse style? Are you a fan of the great poets of the past? Do you want a nature verse? Is this a sonnet? Or how about a Haiku? It’s important to remember that the decision is entirely yours.

Wherever readings are appropriate, marriage poems will fit into your ceremony. After the officiant’s greeting, you can establish the tone for the rest of the ceremony with a couple of marriage poems.

Before your vows, you could like to incorporate a poem. If you’re conducting a sub-ceremony, such as a unity candle or sand ceremony, you can read marriage poems while you do so. Marriage poems can also be read immediately before the officiate gives you a blessing or pronounces you married, just before the ring exchange.

Wilferd A. Peterson, “Slow Me Down, Lord!”

into the tall oak’s branches
and understand how huge and powerful it is
It expanded slowly and steadily.

Lord, please slow me down.
and encourage me to plant deep roots
into the soil of nature’s long-term worth,
so that I can reach for the stars
a part of my larger destiny.”

May your dream of a happy life together come true.
be a river that runs between two cliffs
During the day, it is drenched in sunlight,
while at night, it is dark. internally lighted

The beauty of the sea’s blue.
May the twin thoughts in your head spiral upward.
like leafy vines, like wind-blown fiddle strings
I strive to be as noble as the Douglas fir.

May you never have to deal with each other again.
You can’t move without love tugging you around.
“We fling ourselves into each other’s arms.”

Barbara Crooker’s “New Beginnings”

“May this be a day of fresh starts.”
The sun is like a fragrant apple,
and the summer air is like a cool breeze.

As gentle as a child’s kiss on your hands.
On your tongue, May berries melt like honey.
May your heart swell with awe.
at the strewn clouds over the sky

May the trails beneath your boots be a blessing.
Be encased in pine needles; allow the leaves to fall.
like recollections in the season of your heart’s fall
May the snow beneath your skis be kind to you.

As quickly as moistened silk,
may the cool breeze caress your cheeks,
Make them as brightly coloured as June blooms.

May the rivers never run dry.

the euphoria of the first days of spring

May you be able to walk in joy at all times?
through any route or highway;
“May you wander in the golden circle of your love at all times.”

“In One Another’s Souls.”Rumi

They’ve always been in each other’s hearts.”

“Now softly touch the air,” William Jay Smith

“Now delicately touch the air, take a gentle step, one, two…
I’ll love you until robin’s-egg blue roses bloom;
I’ll adore you until you eat gravel for bread.

Lemons, on the other hand, are orange, while lavender is red.
Now, lightly touch the air and gently swing the broom.
I’ll love you till there are no more windows in the room;

And the table has been set, and the table has been left barren.
And the ceiling is suspended in mid-air.
I’ll love you till the stars are ripped from his cloak by heaven,
The moon, meanwhile, is rowing away in a glass-bottomed boat.

And Orion descends like a river to the ground below.
And the world is burning, as are the oceans.
So gently brush the air and swing the broom high.
We’ll sweep the blue sky and dust the grey mountains:
And I’ll love you as long as the plough furrow lasts.
As it has always been, and as it is now.”

“I Learn How to Love in Your Light,” Rumi

“In the morning, I spotted two clouds
tinted with the light of the rising sun
They continued to float in the dawn.

That morning cloud looked beautiful, I thought.

It travelled to the West in such a lovely manner.
Two July currents were visible to me.
a smooth transition to their meeting,
and, with stealthy might, join their route

Greetings in peace to each other;
Their journey across the verdant banks was serene.
Between them, dimpling eddies played.
Such is the gentleness of your movement,
‘to the final beat of life’s heart;
Summer’s beam and Summer’s stream, for example,
glide on joyfully to meet
a calmer sea where storms will be less frequent,
a clearer sky, where everything is at peace.”

Maya Angelou’s poem “Touched By An Angel”

“We are unaccustomed to bravery.”
outcasts from pleasure live wrapped in loneliness’s shells
until love’s great sacred temple is desecrated
and appears before our eyes to set us free into life.

Love shows up, and ecstasies follow in its wake
pleasurable memories from the past
Pain has a long history.

However, if we are brave,
The bonds of fear are broken by love.
from our hearts and souls
We are being weaned from our apprehension.

In the throes of love’s radiance
We are willing to take risks.
And then we notice something.
Because love costs everything we have
and will always be.
It is, however, merely love. which liberates us.”

Pam Brown’s “The Gift”

“There are flowers and firelight in you,
Songbirds and stars, summer’s fragrance,
the quiet before the sun rises.

Today, I adore you, dressed to the nines
I shall always love you-
Dancing, singing, reading, making, planning,
and disputing are just a few available activities.

I’ll love you if you’re grumpy and exhausted.
bold and terrified, ecstatic, terrified, and victorious
I’ll adore you no matter the weather or how much things change.

For everything you are, you are priceless to me.
And I live with you every day.
And let your affection be known is a present for me.”

Charles Hanson Towne’s “At Nightfall”

“I’m in desperate need of your love’s calm.”
After the day’s raucous squabbles,
All other things aside, I require your calm.
After the strains of everyday existence.
I yearn for the safe refuge you’ve created in your heart.

After all of the hard work has been completed,
I’m in desperate need of your divine eyes’ starlight.
“After the glorious sun of the day.”

Gary E. McCormick says, “It Was Said With Such Authority.”

“Let me give you the gist of it.” what has been mentioned
It has to do with love. and the one who says
It has nothing to do with receiving, he added.

He stated
It was all about surrendering in love.

You could tell this guy was a jerk.

He made it crystal clear. You have to like yourself.
You must first begin to love someone else.
He reminded me of something.
 

Lori Eberhai “Devoted.”

“You can live in my heart,
My soul can be a haven for you.

I will be a promise and a prayer for you.
I’ll always be there for you,
Consistent and comprehensive.

Come to me. Please reach out to me.
I’ll adore you in my own special and loving way.
Bring me your love. I’d like you to share your affection with me.

Sing your heart out to me,
and I will provide you tranquillity, relaxation, and comfort.”

Rumi’s “The Privileged Lovers”

“At this love celebration, the moon has transformed into a dancer.”
This divine love, this sacred blessing, this light dance
calls us to a world beyond, which only lovers with blazing desire eyes can perceive.
They have submitted because they are the chosen ones.

They were once light particles, but now they are the blazing sun.
They’ve left the realm of dishonest games behind.
They are the privileged lovers who bring a new universe into existence.
with their ferocious desire in their eyes.”

14. A Day And A Night

When you’re all alone, lonely, and down in the dumps,
I’m not sure if I’m thinking of you.
I’m hoping to meet someone new in the places I visit.

But, girl, there are a few things you should be aware of.
I want you for an eternity and a day.
I’ll always be true, forever and a day.

Just keep believing in what I’m saying –
Forever and a day, I will love you.
All night long, far across the nation, without you,
I’m curious about what you’re thinking and whether I’m mistaken.

The anguish and despair are just too much for me to take.
All I want to do is reach out and express my love for you.
I want you for an eternity and a day.
I’ll always be true, forever and a day.

Just keep believing in what I’m saying –
Forever and a day, I will love you.
I’m constantly feeling like a stranger without you.
You’re unsure if I’ll believe you or say goodbye.

I have no idea what’s going on, and I have no idea where you’ve been.
But it would be my greatest sin if my love couldn’t trust you.
I want you for an eternity and a day.
I’ll always be true, forever and a day.
Just keep believing in what I’m saying –
Forever and a day, I will love you.

I’ll Love You Forever

You’re unique in more ways than you realize, and I don’t always show it.
You’re my soul mate, my beloved, and everything I know.
It’s your heart, cries, smile, and eyes.
I’ll always adore you, even after we’re both gone.

You are both my friend and my life.
You are both my light and my wife.
You’re my strength and my shoulder.
I’d die for you and go to any extent to save you.
You’re the one I need, and you’re the one who shows up.
Right now, I have you, and it doesn’t seem fair.

Because now isn’t long enough, and forever is far too soon.
I’d die and have no idea what to do if it weren’t for you.
You’re more than just a friend, and you’re also more than a wife.

Forever isn’t long enough for me and you since you’re mine forever.
There’s a special spot in heaven reserved for you.
I’m hoping there’s a place for me right next to you.
You’re a kind soul, and I’ll never forget you.
I simply hope we will always be together today and in the future.

when you have a smile on your face . . .
when it comes to your face,
like though the moon was in a well
where I might desire… wishful thinking
because of the icy heat of your kiss;

My lips are only on water, where your face is…
wonderful, where your face was reflected
When I turned around, there was no one there.
to turn around and glance back at the emptying air…
the vanishing air.”

the happiest moment of my life, the nicest sensation, the highest point
In the same manner that the Chrysler building appears on my mood graph,
It may not be the tallest structure in New York City,
but it is certainly one of the most impressive.
the finest, most delicately spired, or how
Hank Aaron does not have the most home runs in his career.

But the finest, the one that encapsulates the essence of greatness
So unlikely! To have met you at all, and then to have met you again
to have been told so soon in your beautiful young voice
“I adore you,” I said after meeting you and sensed the mystery.
being that you, being a you, being a you, being a you,
I was instantly liked, and what I was was someone.
Who could say “I love you” to someone as lovely as you?

I was brand new at the time; you were 19, and I was 22.

You were rash; I was standing there before you with a future.
that hadn’t been used as fuel yet; I was energized;
Your eyes were a soft blue, and you were beautiful.

And they backed up what you claimed with everything they hadn’t seen.
They were also the least ambitious eyes I’d ever seen.
You were the least calculated when you spoke and didn’t.
They sparkled, and perhaps you sensed the emotion you instilled in them.
Perhaps you sensed that the mood would linger as well.”

Susan Loughlin’s song “For My Husband”

“Loving you has no beginning or finish.”

A bond unlike any other
It’s been twenty years.
In our hearts, though, they are timeless.
Deep and sincere
“Until death do us part.”

“Sweetly kiss me with your warm, wet mouth,
Still smelling like crimson wine,
And say it with the zeal of a Southerner.

While the thin stars above us twinkle,
And we’ll waste the rest of our youth.
“In the delights of living love.”

Margaret Atwood’s “Variations on the Word Love”

“This is a term we use to describe a plug.”
with holes. It’s the perfect size for those hot summer days.
For those with a red heart, there are blanks in speech.
Shaped vacancies on the page that don’t appear there
as though they were genuine hearts. Garnish with lace
and the ability to sell it. We also put it in one empty slot.

there is room on the printed form
There are no instructions included with this item.
And there are a lot of publications with little content.

However, when it comes to the word love, you have many options.
Massage it all over your body, and you’ll feel great.
It can also be used to cook with. What evidence do we have?

It’s not what happens at the cool
Slug debaucheries in moist conditions
cardboard fragments? In terms of the weed,
seedlings with their tough snouts protruding
They shout it among the lettuces.

Love! Love! Soldiers sing, raising their arms
Salute with their gleaming knives
Then there are the two of them.
This is the word
is simply too short for us, with only a few paragraphs.

There are only four letters, which is insufficient.
to suffuse those unfathomable voids
betwixt the stars’ voids
they pounce on us with their deafening silence
It’s not that we don’t want love; we don’t want it.

But it’s that terror that I’m afraid of.
This word is insufficient, yet it will suffice.
I have to do something. It’s a single item.
in this metallic vowel, a mouth that says nothing, quiet

O wow, as well as pain, a breath, and a finger
cling to a cliff’s edge You can
“Do you want to cling on or do you want to let go?”

“The Good-Morrow,” Donne, John

“I’m curious, by my troth, what thou and I did until we fell in love?” Were we not weaned by that point?
But, childishly, lapped on rustic pleasures?
Or did we snort in the den of the Seven Sleepers?
This, however, is true of all pleasures and fantasies.
If there was ever any beauty I saw, sought, and obtained,
it was only a dream of thee.

And now, good morning to our rising spirits,
who do not keep an eye on one another out of fear, for love controls all other sights and turns one small chamber into everywhere.
Allow sea discoverers to travel to new worlds;
allow maps to show worlds on worlds;
Let us share a single universe; each of us has one and is one.”

“To My Dear and Loving Husband,” Anne Bradstreet

“If there was ever a time when two became one, it was unquestionably us.
If any guy has ever been adored by his wife, it is thee.
Compare me, you women, to any wife who has ever been happy in a man.
I value thy love more than entire gold mines or all the wealth the East offers.
My love is such that rivers cannot quench it,
and it should be repaid by love from thee. I can never repay thy love;
may the heavens bless thee abundantly, I pray.
Then, while we live, let us continue in love,
so that when we die, we may live forever.”

E. E. Cummings’ song “I Carry Your Heart With Me (I Carry It in My Heart)

I always have your heart with me (it is in my heart), and I am never without it (anywhere I go, you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is you’re doing, my darling). I fear no fate (for beautiful you are my fate, my true), I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true), and it’s you here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky is you (i carry it in my heart)

Joy Harjo’s “For Keeps”

“The sun gives life to the day.
Tiny green plants sprout from the ground.
The sky is being sung into place by birds.
I’d rather be here than anywhere else.
I lean close to your heartbeat to see where it will lead us.
We gallop into a brisk southerly breeze.
I join my legs to yours, and we ride together toward our relatives’ ancient encampment.
They inquire as to your whereabouts.
And why have you taken so long?
We lay together under the sky that night after eating, singing, and dancing.
We recognize that we are a part of the mystery.
It’s indescribable.
It will last forever.
It’s a long-term commitment.”

“Yours,” Hoffman Daniel

“I am yours like the perfume of Linden
blossoms linger in the summer evening air,
as the snowcap gleams with light lent by the overflowing moon.
I’d be an unleafed tree blasted in a bleakness
with no Spring if it weren’t for you.
Your love is the wind in my sails.
“What is an island if it isn’t surrounded by water?”

“Love Comes Quietly,” Creeley, Robert

“Love comes silently, at last, and descends around me, on me, in the old ways.” What did I know when I thought I could go it alone?”

“Close Your Eyes,” Smith, Elizabeth

“Close your eyes and imagine me.”
And see Our hearts together,
and what could be Our love as destiny for the rest of our lives.”

Rupi Kaur’s song “For Him”

“No, it won’t be love at first sight when we meet;
it’ll be love at first remembering because
I’ve seen you in my mother’s eyes when she says,
marry the man you’d want to raise your son to be like.”

Dave Willis’ A Marriage Blessing

May your marriage bring God glory and joy to each other and benefit your family for many years.

With love and laughter filling your hearts and your homes for the rest of your life. May you tackle each problem hand-in-hand and side-by-side, knowing that you will overcome all challenges with God’s grace.

Robert Louis Stevenson’s Wedding Prayer

Lord, look at our family gathered here.
We thank you for our home, for the love that unites us, for the peace that has been bestowed upon us today, for the hope with which we anticipate the future, for the health, the work, the food, and the beautiful skies that make our lives enjoyable; for our friends from all corners of the globe.
Amen

1 Corinthians 13:4–8

Love is patient and compassionate. It has no enmity, boasts nothing, and is not arrogant. It doesn’t dishonor others, isn’t self-centered, isn’t easily enraged, and doesn’t keep track of wrongdoings.

Love is not enamored with evil, but it is enamored with the truth. It always safeguards, believes in, hopes for, and perseveres.
Love is unbreakable. Prophecies, on the other hand, will end; languages, on the other hand, will be silenced; knowledge, on the other hand, will fade away.

Colossians 3:12-17

As God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, put compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience on your shoulders. If you have a grudge against someone, bear with each other and forgive one another. Allow yourself to be forgiven as the Lord has forgiven you. And put on love, which links these virtues together in perfect oneness.

Let the peace of Christ prevail in your hearts since you were called to peace as members of one body. Also, be grateful. Allow the gospel of Christ to richly dwell among you as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom via psalms, hymns, and Spirit-inspired songs, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.

And in everything you say or do, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

The Blessing of the Church of England on the Marriage

Blessed are you, Lord our God, for you have made joy and gladness, pleasure and delight, love, peace, and fellowship possible. Bless N and N in their new life with your blessings.
Their love for one another should be a seal on their hearts and a crown on their forehead.

Bless them in their labour and companionship while awake and asleep, in joy and sorrow, life and death.


Finally, in your mercy, bring them to the table where your saints will feast in your heavenly abode for all eternity.
We pray in the name of Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord, who now and forever lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God. Amen.

Always By Lang Leav

We were two, before our time when you were you, and I was I.
Before I knew it, I was yours; you’ve always been mine.

How Do I Love Thee? (Line 43 of Sonnet 43) Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

How do I express my love for thee? I’ll count the ways for you.
When I feel out of sight for the ends of existence and ideal elegance, I adore thee to the depths, breadths, and heights that my soul can attain.
By sun and candlelight, I adore thee to the level of every day’s Most Quiet Need.

As men strive for justice, I freely love thee.
As they shy away from praise, I love thee purely.
I love thee with the same fervour I used in my past sorrows and with the trust I had as a child.

With my lost saints, I seemed to lose my love for thee. I have loved thee with every breath, smile, and tear of my life, and if God so chooses, I will love thee even more after death.

5:25-31 (Ephesians)

Husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, purifying her by washing her with water through the word and presenting her to himself as a dazzling church, without stain, wrinkle, or blemish but holy and faultless. Husbands should adore their spouses as if they were their bodies.

He who loves his wife is also in love with himself. After all, no one ever despised their own body; instead, they feed and care for it, just as Christ feeds and cares for the church because we are members of his body. “As a result, a man will abandon his father and mother and combine with his wife, the two becoming one flesh.”

Isaiah 61:10-11

My heart rejoices in the Lord, and my soul rejoices in my God.
For he has clothed me in salvation garments and robed me in his righteousness robe, just as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest and a bride adorns herself with her jewels.


Just as the earth allows a sprout to sprout and a garden causes seeds to grow, the Sovereign Lord will cause righteousness and praise to sprout before all nations.

What Young Husbands Should Say To Their Wives, According to St. John Chrysostom by the Catholic Church’s Catechism

I’ve embraced you in my arms and adore you, preferring you to my own life. For the present life is nothing, and my greatest wish is to spend it with you so that we will not be separated in the life waiting for us. I value your affection above all else, and nothing would make me more bitter or sad than disagreeing with you.

Proverbs 3:3-6

Allow love and faithfulness never to leave you; wear them around your neck and write them on your heart’s tablet.
Then you will gain favour and a good name in God’s and man’s eyes.
Trust the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend on your understanding; submit to him in all your ways, and he will make your pathways straight.

1 Thessalonians 3:12-13

May the Lord grow and overflow your love for each other and everyone else, just as ours does for you.

May he strengthen your hearts so that when our Lord Jesus returns with all of his holy ones, you will be spotless and holy in the face of our God and Father.

The Great Manticore

“Place love, good beauty, and a nice disposition in a well-furnished home.” Make a cream out of the butter of youth and combine it thoroughly with the blindness of flaws. Add the flowing laughter and common sense to the lovely argument, then mix the hammered wit and good humor. Work everything together until it’s well combined, then bake for a long time.”

Ogden Nash’s A Word To Husbands

If we were you, future husbands,
we’d print this out and stick it on the fridge.
To keep your marriage bursting at the seams,
With love in the cup of love,
When you’re wrong, admit it;
when you’re right, don’t say anything.

Marriage poems are a wonderful method of communicating the greatest wedding wishes to the joyful couple and will bring a happy tear or two. So be sure to get some inspiration from our collection of the best poetry examples for your advantage.

Henry James’ “The Portrait Of A Lady”

“It has improved my love for you… It has made me wiser, easier, and — I’m not going to lie – brighter, better, and even stronger. I used to want a lot of things and be frustrated that I didn’t have them. As I already stated, I was theoretically satisfied. I bragged to myself about how limited my desires were. But I was irritable; I used to have sick, sterile, detestable hunger and longing fits. I’m so happy now since I can’t think of anything else.”

Eugenio Montejo’s. The Earth Turned to Bring Us Closer

As recorded in the Symposium, the earth turned to bring us closer together, spinning on itself and within us and finally joining us in this dream.
Nights passed, as did snowfalls and solstices; minutes and millennia passed.
On its trip to Nineveh, an ox wagon arrived in Nebraska.
A rooster sang far away from the globe in one of our forefathers’ thousand pre-lives. The earth was spinning, and its music was taking us along; it didn’t stop for a second, as if so much love, so much that was amazing, was only an Adagio written long ago in the Symposium’s score.

Louise Cuddon’s “I’ll Be There For You”

I’ll be there for you, my darling, through thick and thin.
When your mind is a jumble, and your head is spinning
You’ve missed the last train because your plane has been delayed.
When life is on the verge of driving you nuts
The last page of your fascinating whodunit has been lost
When someone tells you that you appear to be your age.


When your wine is too warm, and your coffee is too cold
“Fine,” the prediction says, yet you’re out in the middle of a storm.
When your short-term motel becomes a slum
In addition, your holiday images just display your thumb.
When you park in a resident’s bay for five minutes.
And then you come back to find you’ve been towed away.


When the pants you bought out of desperation or haste fail to meet your expectations
Stick to your hips and avoid reaching around your waist.
When your favourite cuisine causes you to break out in a rash
When the damned thing fails as soon as you turn it on.


So, my lovely, sweetheart, sweetheart…
When you breach a rule or act foolishly
When you’ve got the flu when you’re sick when you’re in a bind
Don’t worry if you’re at the back of the line; I promise I’ll be there.

E.E. Cummings’ I Carry Your Heart With Me

I always have your heart with me (it is in my heart), and I am never without it (anywhere I go, you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is you’re doing, my darling). The fear of fate is far from me (for beautiful, you are my fate, my true).

I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is (i carry it in my heart)

Pablo Neruda’s.Soneto 17

I don’t love you as if you were made of salt, tobacco, or a flecha of clavicles that spread fire; I love you as if you were made of those hidden things that exist between the darkness and the light.

I love you like a plant that never blooms and hides the light of those flowers within itself, and thanks to your love, the sweet perfume that sprang from the earth is hidden in my body.

Te amo senza saber cómo, cuándo, ni de dónde, te amo directamente sans problemas ni orgullo: asi te amo porque no se amar de otra manera, sino asi de este mode en que no soy ni eres, tal close que tus ojos se cierran with mi sueo.

Pablo Neruda’s. Sonnet 17 (Stephen Tapscott’s translation)

I don’t adore you like a salt rose, a topaz, or a carnation arrow that fire shoots out. Adore you in secret, between the shadow and the soul, like some dark things are to be loved.

I love you as if you were a plant that never blooms but holds the light of hidden flowers inside itself; owing to your love, a solid aroma rising from the earth lives darkly in my body.


Always adore you without knowing how, when, or where I got it.
I love you simply, without complexity or pride; I love you because there is no other way for me to love you: where neither I nor you exist, where your hand on my breast is my hand, where your eyes close as I go asleep.
