Catholic brides... mind sharing your readings?

Bro & FSIL asked me to do a reading for their wedding in 4 weeks. I'm looking to get ideas for them to choose from.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Thanks and happy planning!!

Here are my readings:
A reading from the Book of the Prophet Jeremiah

The days are coming, says the LORD,
when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
It will not be like the covenant I made with their fathers: the day I took them by the hand
to lead them forth from the land of Egypt.
But this is the covenant which I make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD. I will place my law within them, and write it upon their hearts; I will be their God, and they shall be my people. No longer will they have need to teach their friends and relatives how to know the LORD. All, from the least to greatest, shall know me, says the LORD.

The Word of the Lord.

A reading from the Letter to the Hebrews

Brothers and sisters:
Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect hospitality, for through it some have unknowingly entertained angels. Be mindful of prisoners as if sharing their imprisonment,
and of the ill-treated as of yourselves, for you also are in the body. Let marriage be honored among all and the marriage bed be kept undefiled. Let your life be free from love and money but be content with what you have,
for he has said, I will never forsake you or abandon you. Thus we may say with confidence: The Lord is my helper, and I will not be afraid.

The word of the Lord.

We used:
FIRST READING
“Love is as Strong as Death”
Song of Songs 2:8-10, 14, 16a; 8:6-7a

SECOND READING
“The Greatest of These is Love”
1 Corinthians 12:31-13:8a

The Gospel
“Remain in My Love'
1 John 4:8 and 11


Good Luck!!

1 Corinthians
Chapter 13

If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal.

And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing.

If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, (love) is not pompous, it is not inflated,

it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury,

it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.

It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails.

If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing.

For we know partially and we prophesy partially, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.

When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child;
when I became a man, I put aside childish things.

At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully, as I am fully known.

So faith, hope, love remain, these three;

but the greatest of these is love.

If they're having a Catholic ceremony, the church should have given them a book with all the readings they can choose from. Hopefully you'll find one in there you all like.
