Wedding Make-up Bel

So I know that a lot people use the Irish Bells as a way for people to get the bride and groom to kiss in place of clinking glasses. I instead want to have the Irish Make-up Bells at my wedding.

The story behind it is when a disagreement takes place between a husband and wife, one of the couple rings the bell to end the discord and declare a truce without an admission of fault. I want to make the bells my place card holders and also attach a little poem to it explaining the history of the bell.

I cannot find a single poem for it so I have been trying to make up my own. So far I came up with 2 options. If you have any input, criticism or suggestions or know of any pre written poems I would take any info! I may add a line or 2 talking about the it not blaming anyone part but I made my head hurt getting this far lol

#1
When you are looking to call a truce
Find the bell theres no excuse
Raise it high and ring it loud
May it remind you of you solemn vows.

#2
When you and your love are in a spat
And want to end it in no time flat,
Find the truce bell and ring it loud
Let it remind you of your heartfelt vows



I'm left scratching my head!

I am very impressed...I love them both but I think a combination sounds good:
When you and your love are in a spat
And want to end it in no time flat,
Find the truce bell, ring it loud
Let it remind you of your solemn vows


I may totally steal this idea!

'Wave Your Wands to wish them well and show your love by ringing your bell' Not sure if this is what you are looking for?

Haha thank you, steal away! I wanted a table card holder and the bells are pretty cheap online and its just a little cute unique extra.
