We've shared a ceremony reading by Rupi Kaur before (check it out here), but her poetry collection, Milk and Honey was so seminal, we simply had to share another gem from it! Most Importantly Love is a concise poem that says everything you might ever want to say with a wedding reading. I especially like that because this one doesn't just single out romantic love, it will let every single person in the room know how special they are.

Most Importantly Love by Rupi Kaur

most importantly love
like it's the only thing you know how
at the end of the day all this
means nothing
this page
where you're sitting
your degree
your job
the money
nothing even matters
except love and human connection
who you loved
and how deeply you loved them
how you touched the people around you
and how much you gave them
