I hope they don't read this!

Shouldn't it be something from the heart?

When I got married someone (from my husband's side - I had never met them) could not make it because the wife was expecting their first baby around our wedding day.  The msg they wrote on their present said something like "we can recommend this marriage thing very much".  I thought it was the most moving of the msgs we received.

When we got married the one we liked best simply said

 

DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is supposed to be an Apache wedding blessing. My brother read it at my wedding. It may be a little long to write in a card, but take the bits you like. Now you will feel no rain For each of you will be shelter to the other. Now you will feel no cole For each of you will be warmth to the other. Now there is no loneliness for you, Now you are two persons but there is one life before you. Go now to your dwelling place To enter into the days of your togetherness And may your days be good and long upon the earth.

Also quotes from the Song of Solomon are nice (Arise my love my beautiful one and come away...) Also from Kahlil Gibran's book/poem The Prophet (Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself...) Also that ancient blessing "May the lord bless you and keep you, may the lord make his face to shine upon you...." (This is not the same one as the Irish one about the wind being at your back - it is more about going forth in life together.) Surely something from Shakespeare... And there are plenty of love songs you can quote!
