Wedding Intro Poem



Welcome one welcome all

to our lovely hall

We have a ceiling not just a tent

which the groom is paying rent

To celebrate we’re here, let’s make it last

Our lives so short, this world so vast.



A philosopher and maiden fair,

a paisley tie and daisy-ed hair

Come to you for witness true,

Each and every one of you.

To profess their love and share it with

those who've had so much to give

those who taught them what they know,

upon whose love we chanced to grow.



This union will be different from

the weddings that you've seen done

No priest, no holy flame

No officer for which they have already been done



My name is Sashi, and with me is Kavitha

We'll be master of this ceremony

we can but guide... not preside;

that is left for the groom and bride.



They two will speak their words of love

And show about their wedding from far above

Civil ceremony in Richmond Park

They exchanged vows and their love is not apart

He tied the thali in Wandsworth Hall and made her his

A maiden for him to love and kiss.



Our bride and groom are ready to come,

So settle down dear friends, no matter where you’re from.


The poem above was the opening for my friends wedding while i was the Emcee
