Kisses?

I'm wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the glass clinking and the couple kiss tradition?  We're not having real glasses at our reception, so this is not an option for us.  While googling, I came across several ideas, but my favorite was to have tables sing a song with the word "love" in it in order for us to kiss.  The more I thought about it, the more I liked it, so I came up with a little poem to put on each of the tables:

What a wonderful day for Dudley & Michelle

You're all so sweet to wish them well

Today they start their wedded bliss

A milestone that should be sealed with a kiss

There's no glasses to clink or bells to ring

Instead you must do one simply thing

Gather your table, everyone must stand

And for a kiss make a gesture so grand

Sing us a song that contains the word “Love”

And kisses between the newlyweds you'll see plenty of

 

Thoughts?  Any other thoughts on the whole tradition?
