Ode To a Theme Wedding

A couple are wed
At a tiny chapel
On a country road
The guest are waiting 
Outside to congratulate

The guest gather outside
only the wedding party
Are allowed inside
For the wedding ceremony
The guest greet thecouple
When they come outside
Throwing rice at them

When they leave the chapel
They go somewhere for photos
While the guest travel
To the reception hall

When the meal is served
A toast to bride and groom
Then throw the bouquet
With dancing music follows

Best Laid Plans

A flawless ceremony,
and elegant reception,
followed by long honeymoon 
delayed by snowfall.

Wedding Bin Blues

We've got the wedding bin blues,
Reception Centres should have been sued,
Plastic chicken and phony food, 
"Why did you marry me?" we rued,
This is the first wives' club,
Half were in the pudding club,
The orange appliances survived,
Half the exes aren't alive,
Reception Centres should have been sued,
We've got the wedding bin blues!!

Invitation To the Monster's Wedding

Halucinatrix
           and the Beast
invite you to a fiendish feast.

     Bring a present,
   something fresh,
        made of fish or fowl or flesh
  from a unicorn as white
        as the moon will be tonight.
             We will dance 
  around the tomb,
of the Queen we will exhume,
     who will marry us and then,
we'll lay her back to rest again
As we leave the cemetery,
   Throw white lice 
  and wish us merry.

    Reception afterwards will be...
on Haunted Hill,
"neath Hangman's Tree.

           Y'all Come !

Winter Wonderland Reception

A couple got married in the Winter Wonderland
For the reception they hired a mariachi band
They danced a Spanish jig,
Then left in a borrowed rig
Stiffing the poor caterer because the food was bland.

Instigator of the Mayhem

beautiful wedding
priest gave a lovely talk
message was “marry someone you are proud of”
Three couples broke up during the reception
Socialized behavior went out the window
Yelling, screaming, throwing of chairs
Rings were thrown
Accusations were shrieked
Guests got more than they paid for
Priest took another sip of red wine
Having no idea that he was the instigator of the mayhem

WEDDING DAY THINE

Church Wedding Day Bells ring
Soon we will be together as one
Our love will always be among
Attendees will observe
Our voices being words
Heart to Heart
Eye to Eye
Love devotion committed
Hand in Hand directed
Exchanging vows
Under Heaven’s watch
The Rings and Kiss
My Friend and Partner
Man and Wife
Strong Foundation
Reception in our honor
The Music and Dance
Our spotlight
Enchanted for sure
Our ever after
Honeymoon joy
Embark
Embrace
Love now into ever more.
