Samantha and Ian

Praise these two fine people on this great day

We all wish them well as they seal their love in
very special ways,

Two loving parents –
a fine artist and a man of the countryside

We assemble together in this unique place
with excitement and pride.

We hail this good couple at their impressive wedding feast,
Let joy fill this room and all sadness cease,

Sam, thoughtful and creative,
a lovely woman for all to see

Ian, a handsome partner, strong,
dependable, you’ll all agree. Sam loves those close to her with sensitivity and care

Ian the cornerstone of the scrum he goes
where others wouldn’t dare,

He strides with his dog
across fields in harmony
with sun and moon

As Sam provides a loving home
and sings a gentle tune.

So raise a glass
and raise one more

For the countryman and the artist
cheer and stamp the floor,

With a tear in our eyes
and words so true

We say “Be happy for ever and many congratulations
to both of you!”

Charlie & Ryan

Here is a poem for a loving couple it’s true
Let’s celebrate their wedding under Somerset skies of blue,

Ryan the skilful fisherman
with rod, line and net
And a football coach of skill
we must not forget,

Charlie –
a bright and loving mother
Strong willed, beautiful and funny like no other,

Two beautiful children
Olivia and Ocie
as you all can see
Complete this very impressive family,

So raise a glass and let’s all say
“Congratulations to Ryan and Charlie on this very special day!”
