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.
Ariane, my sister, wounded by what love,
You died on the shores where you were abandoned.
To act, you must know pain. You must know what it means to be in love, what it means to be rejected.
Even today, romantic love is just not part of my life. And you know what? That's okay with me.
My wife, I might add, is a saint.
Either that, or maybe she is insane.
Marriage was the best business deal I ever made. After that, Jesus of Nazareth and The Muppets.
