wedding verse

Marriage ceremony poetry

Wedding verse is poetry or rhymed text composed for wedding occasions, typically appearing in invitations, cards, toasts, or ceremony readings.

The term often implies sentimental or formulaic verse rather than distinguished poetry: The invitation featured some generic wedding verse about two hearts becoming one.

Wedding verses range from religious passages to light doggerel.
