Confetti Poem

I am making some confetti cones for my friends wedding and would like to add a poem the basket that they will be in, I have found this on the internet


Toss in the air and sprinkle around
To shower the newlyweds so that joy will be around
When XXX and XXX exit as a pair,
please throw confetti high in the air

I feel this is a bit too American, just wondered if anybody has any other ideas please,

thank you in advance

  • I think that's really nice! :)

    Had a quick google and found this one:

    each tiny petal is a little prayer
    at the end of the ceremony let them fly through the air
    as each petal falls, may husband and wife
    know god's richest blessings for the rest of their life


    Only appropriate if it's a religious ceremony/couple though?

    How about:

    each tiny petal is a little prayer
    at the end of the ceremony let them fly through the air
    as each petal falls, may husband and wife
    be loving and happy for the rest of their life
