Wedding Quotes
Wikiquote has no wedding page of its own to draw on, so this one is a blend of the marriage, love and romance pages. Only one quote in the data is filed under weddings directly: Ambrose Bierce’s entry in The Devil’s Dictionary (1911), a definition of the ceremony as a joke about who ends up as nothing. It is funny and it is not for a toast.
For a reading or a speech, the love and romance material is the better bet. Shakespeare and Byron are both here. Look at the source line under each quote before you print it on anything.
We are told “God so loved the world” that he is going to damn almost everybody.
There is not so much virginity in the world that one can afford not to love when one finds it.
The sort of guardian you can hire is worth about as much as the sort of wife you can buy.
Dialogue cannot exist, however, in the absence of a profound love for the world and its people.
I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps.
Love has unbound my limbs and set me shaking,
A monster bitter-sweet and my unmaking.
A total immersion in life offers the best classroom for learning to love.
A pleasant-smiling cheek, a speaking eye,
A brow for love to banquet royally.
