I would greatly appreciate suggestions for wedding ceremony readings (from books, movies, poetry-non-religious). There is probably a thread on this already, but I have not found one.  I have seen a lot of the very popular readings, but have not found ones that fit us.  What are your favorites? Thanks in advance!

    we used an excerpt from I like you http://ginevra.vox.com/library/post/i-like-you.html for my two nieces who were 11 and 13 and this http://www.todays-weddings.com/planning/readings/art_marriage.html for DH's best friend from HS. Here are some other ones on offbeat bride to check out too. http://offbeatbride.com/2008/07/wedding-readings

    We had two religous and one non. This is the non.  I got tons of compliments.  A friend found it and gave it to me and I absolutely love it. The Wedding Vow - Author Unknown "You are not the air that I breathe, You are the sweet scent that drifts upon it You are not the food that I need, You are the nourishment of my soul You are not my will to survive You are my reason for living It is with you that I experience the wonders of the world It is with you that I triumph over the challenges in my path It is your partnership that will lead me to the fulfillment of my dreams It is your friendship that guides me as I learn and grow It is your patience and wisdom that calms my restless nature It is through you that I know my true self I do not take you for granted, I cherish you I do not need you, I choose you I choose you today in witness of all the people who love us I choose you tomorrow in the privacy of our hearts I choose you in strength and weakness I choose you in health and in sickness I choose you in joy and sorrow I will choose you, over all others, every day for all the days of my life."
