Sweet as Hunny: Winnie the Pooh-Inspired Reading for Your Wedding

Weddings are not just a platform to celebrate a union of a couple, they are also the best setting for sharing lessons on love, life, friendship, loyalty, and commitment – and the perfect way to do this is through readings. Some couples may prefer to skip readings on their wedding day and jump right to their written vows, but we highly recommend not to.

Readings are a pleasant way for your nearest and dearest (a family member or a friend) to honour and impart their good wishes to you and your partner. They are sentimental and heartfelt – something that you can never have enough of on your big day. The right moment during the wedding ceremony for the wedding reading could vary and could be right after the processional or just before the bride and groom exchange the wedding vows.

Here is the collection of junior bridesmaid dresses for your little bridesmaid who likes Winnie the Pooh.

Choosing the right reading...

A wedding reading is usually a poem, a bible verse, an excerpt from a book or an essay, or a passage, that is typically read by a member of the entourage or someone dear to the bride and groom. Readings can also be original and personally written, but it should be noted that the piece should not be too revealing that it could potentially embarrass the couple.

The best way to pick the right reading is to find something that is well-loved and familiar to everyone. The reader may have the option to choose his or her own piece but it is ultimately the couple who has the liberty to assign which readings they would like to hear at their wedding. The perfect reading should be profound and sincere – something the couple and guests (both young and old) can connect with, like Winnie the Pooh.

Timing the reading...

Traditionally, readings should not last for more than five to seven minutes, with around two to three people reading a piece. In Catholic weddings, this number can go as high as ten people.

The couple should note, though, that too many readings can drag the ceremony, causing boredom and disinterest from the guests – one reason why they should choose readings that are light and relatable.

Winnie the Pooh on your wedding...

The ideal reading should be sweet and earnest, something like an excerpt from a beloved story like Winnie the Pooh. The story of Winnie the Pooh is not just about love but also focuses on friendship which is one of the foundations of a long, strong, and lasting marriage.

A Winnie the Pooh wedding reading has everything – genuine and pure innocence and emotions, humour, and valuable life lessons. The readings will surely make the guests feel warm fuzzy inside as Pooh and his gang are like old friends that give the warmest hugs and the best advice.
