Wedding readings

There are lots of readings that you could use in the service. At a Christian wedding, one or more of these is likely to be from the Bible, and others might be from favourite poems or songs, or something else that is meaningful to the people who are being married.

If you are getting married at St Edyth’s then the person conducting the service will come and talk to you about all aspects of the service, including the readings. But here are some links to some popular Bible readings so that you can take time to read them and think about what they say.
