Ribbons, petals, silk and lace.
Tearful eyes and smiling faces.
Top hats, waistcoats, cravats, braces.
Such a wonderful wedding day.

Bridesmaids, pageboys, the bride and groom,
Friends and family crowd the room.
The band play sentimental tunes.
Such a glorious wedding day.

Solemn vows, exchange of rings.
Toasts and speeches, someone sings.
A feast and banquet fit for kings.
Such a splendid wedding day.

Dancing, fooling, shrills of laughter.
The cake is cut, more speeches after.
The beginning of a whole new chapter.
Such a marvellous wedding day.

All too soon, it’s getting late
but this will always be a date
to cherish and to celebrate.
Such a fabulous wedding day.

The bride’s bouquet lands where it will
Giggles, blushes, what a thrill.
The honeymooners waving still
at the end of their perfect day.
