Hi ladies.
What readings did you use in your ceremony? I need to select readings and readers soon. TIA!

I'm totally piggybacking to see what the responses are.  I've got the book with the readings right in front of me and FI are hoping to choose ours this weekend!

While we looked at the book, we pulled our readings from Catholic Wedding Help.  However, I believe the Gospel reading is  in the book.    Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 Colossians 3:12-17 Matthew 7:21, 24-29 http://catholicweddinghelp.com/topics/readings-rite.htm#OT

Here are the readings we choose.  Not all of them were included in the book provided by the church.  I'm excited because they were just approved this week

1^st Reading  GENESIS 1:26-28, 31 A reading from the book
 of Genesis 
Then God said:"Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,the birds of the air, and the cattle,and over all the wild animalsand all the creatures that crawl on the ground."God created man in his image;in the divine image he created him;male and female he created them.God blessed them, saying:"Be fertile and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it.Have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air,and all the living things that move on the earth."God looked at everything he had made,and he found it very good. The word of the Lord.
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 118: This is the Day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad. 
2^nd Reading1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-8a
A reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the CorinthiansLove is patient love is kind love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude.It does not insist on its own way it is not irritable or resentful it does not rejoice at wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth.
It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends. The word of the Lord. 
GospelJOHN 15:9-12
A reading from the holy gospel according to John.Jesus said to his disciples:"As the Father loves me, so I also love you.Remain in my love.If you keep my commandments,you will remain in my love,just as I have kept my Father's commandmentsand remain in his love.I have told you thisso that my joy may be in youand your joy may be complete.This is my commandment:love one another as I love you."The Gospel of the Lord.

Wow, Clare13, I chose the exact same readings (even the same Psalm!) and mine were approved by our priest about a week ago... That's so interesting!   Great minds think alike!
