My Sister's Wedding - By Suzie


It was Saturday the 20th 
March Nineteen Ninety Three
When Becki and Jonathan 
Would no longer be single and free

Their love had blossomed
They knew where they were heading
So after a few years of courting
They made it to their wedding

Make-up ladies, hairdressers
What a hectic day
But look how beautiful Becki is
For Dad to give away.

Chauffeur driven to the hall
Where Becki's intended waits
'What will her dress be like?'
Everyone debates.

The ceremony begins
With a loud fanfare
'Here comes the bride',
Bideford's wedding premiere

As Becki walks down the isle
With her bridesmaids following
There awaits Jonathan Warner
With his knees-a-wollowing!

After the talk they say their vows
Exchanging rings and kisses
Becki is now a married woman
A 'Warner' and a Mrs!

Bernard took the photos
The camera never stopped
'Wedding Congratulations...'
The smiles never dropped.

The reception at Westward Ho!
Started with a sherry,
To welcome the bride and groom
And make the evening merry.

Everyone sat down
To partake the feast of food
Followed by entertainment
To get guests in the mood

With a play, a band
And the 'Bideford Groovers' singing
Everyone danced
Waltzing, jiving and swinging

The evening was at an end
A good time was had by all
Tears and emotions were unveiled
When the couple left the hall!

This poem was written for a wedding present for my sister's wedding on 20 March 1999. The 'Bideford-Groovers' mentioned were three friends (myself, Sam and Marisa) who changed the lyrics of a song from the film Grease, and sang the song at the reception. Brave or what!
