Couldnt find a poem only thread so though I'd start one...
Starting with......
Father of the bride:
The first man I ever loved
The first man I ever loved stood tall above my head, he read me bed time stories then he'd tuck me into bed.
He’d listen to my prayers, scare the bogeyman away, he’d leave the hallway light on until the break of day.
We’d always laugh and giggle when I danced upon his feet, he’d twirl me in a circle to make the dance complete.
He taught me about courage and not to compromise, the first man I ever loved is very brave & very wise.
Now I will be married a new life I am to start, but forever will my first love remain within my heart.
I love you dad

To My Sister, My Maid of Honor
I wish that I could tell you exactly what it means, to have a special sister who has shared in all my dreams.
Now, on the day I marry you will be the one to stand, as my Maid of Honor near me close at hand.
Of memories we've shared this day just would not be, the one that I had dreamed of without you next to me.
And though our lives keep changing I will still look forward to, all the many things we'll share as only sisters do.
You are a wonderful sister

Our mother
You are the mother I received the day I wed your son. And I just want to thank you, Mom, for the things that you have done. You have given me a gracious man with whom I share my life. You are his lovely mother and I his lucky wife. You used to pat his little head and now I hold his hand. You raised in love a little boy, then gave to me a man.

To My Mom From Your Daughter
I realize as I marry what it takes to be a wife, it takes the things you taught to me all throughout my life.
It’s believing in another’s dream until it has come true, cheering in the background, “I am so proud of you!”
It’s having your convictions and admitting when you're wrong, it’s showing you have weaknesses but knowing that you’re strong.
And so the day they say to us, “We pronounce you man and wife,” I’ll strive to be just like you, the one who gave me life.
Thank You Mom For Everything.

For My Flower Girl
You are so very young but the years will pass by, and you'll too be a bride in the blink of an eye.
While you may not remember the day that I married, the part that you played or the basket you carried.
There will be a day that will burn bright like an ember, the day you will wed,you will always remember.
So here is a hankie for the day you will say... "I need "something old" for my wedding day"
All My Love Sweetheart

No Gifts/Money: (Cheeky)
We have lived together a while now, And we have all that we need, So we haven't got a gift list, For you to sit and read.
Money or Vouchers, Would be appreciated in every way, And the joy of your presence, To share our special day.
No Gifts:
We do not wish for presents, we hope you do not mind, We haven't got a gift list, there's nothing we could find.
Your presence at our wedding, will give our day a lift, Your company is priceless, we accept it as our gift.
*..Embrace Your Dreams..*

Honeymoon Moneys:
We are sending out this invitation, In hope you'll join our celebration, But if a gift is your intention, We'll take this opportunity to mention
We have already got a kettle and toaster, crockery, dinner mats, and matching coasters, So rather than something we have already got, We would appreciate money for our honeymoon pot.
But most importantly we request, That you come to our wedding as our guest!
*..Embrace Your Dreams..*
~We're All Mad Here~
CommentAuthorMrs T. 2 Be
This is a poem I put together from my own ideas and taking parts from other poems for a Gift list combined with a Honeymoon donation:
To celebrate our wedding you may wish to buy us presents However this is not required, all we want is your presence If you insist, We must admit, we have a J.0hn L3wis Wedding List To help us improve our home at a later date Or even replace a broken plate! Included in our list is an option for a Honeymoon donation To put towards our post Wedding vacation But most importantly, we request You share our day as our Wedding Guest.

For the parent of the bride:
Dear mum and dad,
Today is the day, I've dreamed of all my life. The day that I get married, and become a loving wife. You need to know how precious, you two are to me. You have made me what I am, and will carry on to be.
This day will be a special one, with emotions flowing free, I just wanted you to know, I'll need you there with me Your strength and love will guide me, as I become the bride, As I start this unknown journey, I need you by my side.
As I stand with Dad, and start walking down the aisle Please look at me dear Mum, I'll need to see your smile. Your smile and Dad's arm, will help to steady me, As I take this step, for everyone to see.
I'll always be your daughter, and your love I'll always need, I’m now starting a new chapter, planting a new seed. He is my love, my life, my everything to me, And he will be beside me, as we tackle what will be.
So on my wedding day, I say these words to you, Hoping that you realize, you're in everything I do, I will pledge to him, my very heart and soul, You have helped to mold me, and he will make me whole.
Through the years you've been there, for all my ups and downs, from friendships, boys and homework, to finding wedding gowns.
I want so much to thank you, for all you've given me, Your care and love and wisdom, and the lasting memories.
For even though I'm now grown up, In my dress and wearing pearls, remember on this my wedding day, I'm still your little girl!

For those who have passed:
Another special day Is soon upon us now, My wedding day is coming And I will take my vows.
I wish that you could be here, You're missed more than you could know, Please know I hold you in my heart And that I love you so
I'm so sad you'll not be here On the day I say "I do", You know I'd have a great big hug Waiting just for you.

Today we begin the rest of our life Together forever as husband and wife. Our dreams came true, with love and more— Adventures to have and the world to explore.

For mum, my best friend
You'll always be important mum Don't ever doubt your worth To me our irreplaceable The dearest mum on earth
Just knowing I can talk to you If life should cause distress Brings comfort to me day by day Far more than you can guess
Your special love's beyond compare It has been from the start When first you picked me up And held me to your heart
When times were bad you always lent A sympathetic ear Always there to help and care And wipe away a tear
A mothers love is constant From beginning to the end And nowhere in the whole wide works Will I find a better friend

This is one I wrote last night for our vicar
Vicar poem
Thankyou for marrying us on this our special day, We couldn't find a nicer way to express what we want to say. We're so excited to follow this new path in life, He, as husband, she, as wife.
We look forward to all the good things a marriage has to offer, Such as love, warmth and laughter. We'll always have fond memories of the day we said "I, do" And all we really can say is, Thankyou...

a deceased loved one....
The moment that you died my heart was torn in two, one side filled with heartache, the other died with you. I often lie awake at night, when the world is fast asleep, and take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, but missing you is heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart and there you will remain.
so sad but lovely x

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane I would walk right up to Heaven and bring you back again No farewell words were spoken No time to say ‘goodbye’ You were gone before I knew it and only God knows why My heart still aches in sadness and secret tears will flow What it meant to love you - No one can ever know But now I know you want me to mourn for you no more To remember all the happy times life still has much in store Since you'll never be forgotten I pledge to you today - A hallowed place within my heart is where you'll always stay
