Unique Bridal Shower Gift

Posted by Ellynrose

there's a really cute poem that goes with a basket of candles... like a silver one for the 25th anniversary... one for the wedding night...


Here's the poem:
A basket of candles that come in a pair,
of all different colors, for you two to share.

The white ones burn first, they are wrapped in white lace,
to celebrate the first night in your new chosen place.

The mauve pair is smaller, and thinner,
they burn with your first company over for dinner.

There are candles to burn Christmas Eve, before bed,
your first Christmas married, that’s why they are red.

The navy candles are for your first fight;
use them to burn when making up all night.

Pink candles will set the mood and pave the way
for your very first married Valentine’s Day.

Now when your first year of marriage is through,
the Ivory anniversary pair will light for you two.

By this time we hope maybe, just maybe,
you could burn the yellow ones on the birth of your baby.

And just when you thought you could put these away;
take the light blue ones for your fifth anniversary day.

Now just one pair left for the big '25',
the anniversary pair that will keep your love alive.

So congratulations both of you on the start of your 'forever',
may the two of you always be happy together.

And burn these candles just like I said,
but please don’t forget…blow them out before bed!

A laundry basket with a poem attached and filled with all the things in caps below....

Dear (Bride),
As you prepare for marriage,
I thought I’d let you in on a little SECRET.
Although, in physique, (Groom) might be BRAWNY
and have a really CHARMIN personality,
you may soon find out that he is no MR. CLEAN.
But don’t let that make you SHOUT.
Remember that he will always be there to SNUGGLE -
a best friend to fill your life with extra ZEST.
So please, continue to give (Groom) your ALL,
and your home never will be short on JOY!

or...

Dear (Bride's Name):
You are entering a new ERA
There will come a THYME in your marriage when you find (Groom's name) is not always MR CLEAN.
But dont send out the S.O.S because he may VANISH.
(Groom's name) will always bring you CHEER and you will find that he is you white DOVE.
When you are together you will find JOY.
So remember your PLEDGE and give him your ALL.
To (Bride and Groom)
The best of luck & Good Fortune in the years to come.
And may (Groom) always be your HONEY

I went to a shower where someone gave a gift basket full of decorations for every holiday. I thought that was an adorable idea!
