This is the ideal wedding ceremony reading: it can be read by any guest or family member at any type of wedding ceremony, and still encapsulate the feeling of how fantastic it is to see two people in love. It's short, sweet and perfectly to the point. It has wisdom and romance. Could it be in your wedding ceremony?

The Magic of Love by Helen Steiner Rice

Love is like magic, and it always will be,
For love still remains life's sweet mystery.

Love works in ways that are wondrous and strange,
And there's nothing in life that love cannot change.

Love can transform the most commonplace
Into beauty and splendour and sweetness and grace.

Love is unselfish, understanding and kind,
For it sees with its heart, and not with its mind.

Love is the answer that everyone seeks;
Love is the language that every heart speaks.

Love can't be bought, it is priceless and free.
Love, like pure magic, is life's sweet mystery.
