There are few things that matter more on your wedding day than the union between you and your partner, the special bond you share, and your love for one another. Not every couple is romantic with their words, after all, we all communicate in a different love language, but if there's a time to put into words how much you both mean to one another, your wedding day is it. If you're looking for a beautiful ceremony reading to honour how special your partner is to you, we reckon The Confirmation by Edwin Muir is a gorgeous choice. Have a read below and embrace the romance of the words - we have goose pimples!

The Confirmation by Edwin Muir

Yes, yours, my love, is the right human face
I in my mind had waited for so long
Seeing the false and searching for the true
Then found you as a traveller finds a place
Of welcome suddenly amid the wrong
Valleys and rocks and twisting roads. But you,
What shall I call you? A fountain in a waste,
A well of water in a country dry,
Or anything that honest and good an eye
That makes the whole world bright. Your open heart,
Simple with giving, gives the primal deed,
The first god world, the blossom, the blowing seed,
The hearth, the steadfast land, the wandering sea
Not beautiful or rare in every part,
But like yourself, as they were meant to be
