Synopsis

‘How do I love thee...?’

Weddings require public voices — speeches and responses — but along with these people often want to have a poem read to mark their marriage in a personal way. Whether it’s a poem full of beauty or of humour, whether it’s by a modern poet or a poet from the past, it will be a means of finding the right words to celebrate a very special occasion.

When attending friends’ weddings — and because she’s an actress — Julia Watson has often been asked to read a poem. In the same way, many people have asked her for ideas about what to choose. In this book, she has collected over ninety poems and readings for weddings.

‘Stay near to me, stay true to me...’
