Hey ladies,
I was wondering if anyone could help me out with the vision I have for one of my ceremony readings....I've read posts from girls who have used "Oh the Places You'll Go" by Dr. Seuss as a reading. I am an elementary teacher and love kids' books, so I thought that was super cute. However, I read the words and don't really get a couple/love vibe from that book....

Does anyone have suggestions for another kids' book or poem that I could use for a reading, that couuld be related more to marriage??? Thanks girls! :)

    I just googled "kids book wedding ceremony readings".

    That was one of the first hits.  There are a lot of suggestions in the comments, plus links to other posts, or you could return to google.

    HTH.

    I've played several weddings where they used "The Velveteen Rabbit".  The part where the skin horse talks to the rabbit about love.

    The Missing Piece Meets the Big O (...yeah, I know, just give it a try!!) by Shel Silverstein. I'm not positive it would work as well without the illustrations, but it's worth a shot.

    I know the Dr. Seuss one doesn't talk about love, but it does talk about marriage (in the sense that you're off on a long journey together, etc).
