WEDDING POEMS

Hello, welcome to WriteMeAPoem. I’m Cathy Baxter, a published poet with a talent for writing personalised wedding poems. If you’re on my website then you’re probably interested in having a personalised wedding poem written, so let me tell you a little about how I work.

I specialise in wedding poems for brides, grooms, best-men, friends or parents to read at theirs or their loved ones wedding. They can make you and your speech very memorable – a wedding poem is a wonderful way to express your love or share amusing anecdotes.

Personalised wedding poems also make very special and unique gifts.

I have a tailored information form that I ask you to complete. This will guide you through giving me the details I need to write a unique personalised wedding poem for you. I often ask for follow up details so that I can be sure of creating the best poem for you. Most people ask for their wedding poems to be a mix of wit and sincerity, or maybe a bit cheeky! But the tone of your wedding poem is up to you.

Take a look at some of my examples and testimonials, and if you’re interested then go to the purchase page and simply select the poem length and fill out the requirements form. You can also contact me for any queries you may have.

Thank you for visiting my website.

Personalised Wedding Poems – Example 1

For Mum and Dad

(Bride’s Speech to her parents)

Dear Mum and Dad, I just want you to know,
I can’t thank you enough for helping me grow.
From the day I was born, you’ve done all in your power
To water my roots and help me to flower.

With four girls to bring up, there were choices to make,
But together you worked out the best paths to take.
You have nurtured our differences, helped us grow strong,
You even stayed patient when I got things wrong!

I still cherish the magic I felt as a girl.
Climbing trees, running free in my fairytale world.
I am blessed to have been your Princess Number Two,
For the wonderful childhood provided by you.

You were young when you met, just midway through your teens,
Yet somehow you knew what a family should mean.
You worked hard to provide, but when push came to shove,
You taught me that riches come second to love.

Each hurdle, each milestone there’s been Mum and Dad:
My prom, graduation, each job that I’ve had.
The birth of my Sam, even choosing this dress,
You have stood by my side through each triumph, each mess!

They say Brides require something old, something new,
(I don’t think I’ll mention what’s borrowed and blue!)
As I lose my old name, and take on the new,
Please rest assured, I will always love you!

(Toast: To Mum and Dad!)

Personalised Wedding Poems – Example 2

Margaret and Declan

This is my gift to my sister true,
Sweet Mags, childhood memories bind me with you,
And loyalty fierce finds me right by your side,
As Declan from Killybegs, makes you his bride.

It’s been seven good years since you first noticed Dec,
Since he lit up your world in his cream polo-neck,
When Ronan and I saw the magic alight,
As you strutted your moves in CP’s that first night.

But blurred by the love-vibes, and feeling quite shy,
You forgot to swap numbers, you just said goodbye!
As the lights they came up, and the music did fade,
You drifted apart with no future plans made.

So as days turned to weeks Declan tried to forget
Your eyes deep-dark brown, and your hair black as jet.
‘Til all of a sudden it hit him one day,
His best catch had broke free, he’d let you get away!

But little did he know, our Mags felt the same,
Though she didn’t suspect she’d one day take his name.
She tracked down his number, and sent him a text . . .
And romance and roses is what happened next!

So join with me please on their Wedding Day,
And let our love go with them as they sail away.
Please join me in toasting the health of these two,
Who have proved to us all, ‘Fairytales can come true!’

Personalised Wedding Poems – Example 3

For Vicky and Phil

This is for Vicky, sweet daughter of mine.
Though always becoming, today you’re divine.
I’m so proud of the way that you’ve made a new life,
And I know Phil feels blessed he can call you ‘his wife’.

But Phillip, beware when she heads for the shops
She’ll set out for a loaf and come back with two tops!
And if you thought shoes were a practical thing
Revise your opinion – think high heels and bling!

Phil too, though obsessed with ‘the beautiful game’,
And prone to plan barbies when forecasts say rain,
Is there with a joke when the going gets tough.
He makes things OK when you’ve had quite enough.

Together it’s clear that they make a great team.
The new home that they’ve built proves they’re Builders Supreme!
Phil worked like a trooper, from morning till night,
While Vick shopped for bargains and made the sums right.

So join with me please, on this their wedding day
To toast their good luck as their cruise sails away.
May the sunshine be bright and the sky clearest blue
We wish happiness, comfort and joy to you two.

A toast: To happiness, comfort and joy!
