A Guest Blog Post by Rachel @ Veil and Verse
As the years pass by, wedding trends come and go. As a bride-to-be it can be very difficult to stay on top of these trends, especially if your wedding day isn’t for a year or two. If you’ve done your research you will know that rustic, whimsical themes are here to stay and boho chic styles are still prominent in the world of hair and make up. But have you ever heard of bespoke poetry for your wedding day? 2020 is set to see a rise in the popularity of personalised rhymes. In the past poetry might have been considered as dated or old fashioned, but not this kind.
Let’s Make Poetry Cool Again
Your younger self may have an inner meltdown at the mention of poetry, but don’t worry we won’t be taking you back to English Literature class! Believe it or not, poetry is the perfect way to add a unique touch to your wedding day. Whether you’re seeking out a personalised wedding poem or your groom-to-be needs help writing his speech, rhymes are now the way to go. The internet is bursting with potential wedding poems and readings, but are they actually personal to you? If you were a regular guest at a wedding, would you really want to hear the same old cliché wedding poem over and over again? This is where you need to call in the experts, which is what Veil and Verse is all about!
More About Veil and Verse
Veil and Verse is a bespoke poetry writing service for weddings and special occasions. Rachel, the owner, stumbled upon a problem whilst she was planning her wedding; one of which you might be able to relate to. She and her fiancé scrolled through Google for hours on end trying to find the ‘perfect’ wedding reading for their ceremony, but it simply didn’t exist. This is how Veil and Verse was born, as Rachel decided to write her own poem about their baby daughter Willow. As soon as her friends and family heard about her personalised poetry, requests quickly came flooding in and her full time business was born.
How Can You Incorporate Personalised Poetry Into Your Wedding Day?
There are so many unique ways that you can utilise poetry for your wedding day. One of the most popular ways to start off is by purchasing a ‘Will You Be My Bridesmaid?’ poem or a rhyme that you can include on your gorgeous wedding invites from Whyte Weddings UK.
As mentioned earlier, you could also invest in a poem for your wedding ceremony, which could be read aloud by a friend or family member. If you’re writing your own vows and struggling for words to say a rhyme would be the perfect way to add a unique touch to your heartfelt words. If you’re a groom, best man or father of the bride who is nervous about putting together a show stopping speech, a witty and lively poem written by Veil and Verse will instantly relieve your stresses!
One of the most unique ways to impress your guests is by gifting every single person an individual rhyme as part of your wedding favours. If you’re already investing in name places or menus from your trusted wedding stationer, you can simply ask them to include the personalised rhyme for each guest on your order. This keeps your tablescape looking neat and it can be designed to suit your colour scheme and wedding theme.
