Every Wedding

Every wedding’s different From the music to the vows, The venue to the food and drink And toasts the pair allows. The table decorations, The bridal party’s clothes; The readings at the ceremony That the couple chose. The gown, the veil, the flowers, The photographer and dance; The thousand details hardly Reminiscent of romance. Yet every wedding’s special And unique to just those two, Reflecting the decisions Leading up to their “I do.” And though you might compare them, From that walking up the aisle, All that matters is the way The bride and groom begin to smile. For the way they gaze so deeply Into one another’s eyes Is the same at every wedding, Yet it’s always a surprise.
