Any poets ? Im looking for a little poem... please

by **ADWEDDING2012** » Thu May 10, 2022 9:47 pm

Hi all..

Im hoping there is someone out there that is good at writing poems :wv

.... Instead of having a guest book we are having signing pebbles... So on a table we will have a large vase and have bought bags of special pebbles that the guest will write a message on and put into the vase and it will build up during the night and will be a lovely keepsake we can use in house... So im looking for a poem that tells people what to do and maybe something about one pebble each even though i know we have bought more then we need but just to make sure..

Thanks in advance :thnk

This vase of pebbles
will be our keepsake
please leave a message
on the stone that you take
place it inside and in our hearts will stay
the wishes you send us on our wedding day

Not sure about it but you could rejig it...been a while since I wrote any poetry :-8

Are you looking for 'words of wisdom' type messages?

"These little stones will help us build a solid lasting base
For our marriage to stand firm on when life gets hard to face
So write your message to us and add it to the pile
And down the years your words of cheer will always make us smile"

<gagging a bit, but if you can't be soppy on your wedding day...>

You're welcome :thnk

Changed mine a little, the 'in our hearts' bit was maybe a bit pukey

This vase of pebbles
will be our keepsake
please leave a message
on the stone that you take
place it inside and with us will stay
the wishes you send us on our wedding day

Hi ADWEDDING2012
Just offering a simple rhyme for your request

Country Antrim has a special collection of stones called the Giants Causeway
We have a stone for each of you so that all our guests can have a say
Please choose a stone to write your thoughts and wishes on our special day
Place your message in our special bottle so that we can treasure every day
The warmth, the joy and the thoughts of our friends and family in this special way

Hi ADwedding2012,

Love the idea, it's fab.

Just wondering where you got the pebbles? What size are they? What kind of pen will work on the pebbles and if you have seen this work before?

I think it's a brilliant idea especiallyl with the fab poems the wollies wrote. Would love to know more about how it works and where you got everything!!!

Hi there... I got the signing stones from a company www.allaboutweddings.ie

Bought them awhile ago so from memory it was €40 for vase and 100 stones and we bought an extra bag of stones..think 100 for €20.. They told me just to buy a fine tip permanent marker.. Not seen it done befor but liked the idea of having something different and im going to put little cards on tables aswell to remind people to sign one or get bestman to say it in his speech..

Best of luck with your plans :thnk
