The Perfect Romantic Love Poem for Your Wedding Ceremony

Finding the right poem to express your love can make your wedding ceremony truly special.

As a Wedding Celebrant in Sheffield, I’ve had the pleasure of including some of the most beautiful love poems that speak directly to the hearts of couples and their guests.

Whether you want something classic or contemporary, a romantic poem can set the tone for your wedding ceremony, creating an atmosphere of deep connection and love.

Below, is one of my favourite romantic wedding poems called “Love Is Friendship On Fire” by Laura Hendricks.

Amma and Joe had this beautiful poem in their wedding celebrant ceremony at The Old Rectory, Padworth, near Reading in Berkshire. It was read by Andy’s Dad.

Love Is Friendship Set On Fire

by Laura Hendricks

Love is friendship caught fire;

It is quiet, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving.

 

It is loyalty through good and bad times.

 

It settles for less than perfection, and makes allowances for human weaknesses.

 

Love is content with the present, hopes for the future, and does not brood over the past.

 

It is the day-in and day-out chronicles of irritations, problems, compromises, small disappointments, big victories, and working toward common goals.

 

If you have love in your life, it can make up for a great many things you lack.

 

If you do not have it, no matter what else there is, it is not enough.
