Re: what my MOH made for me.... (with a pic)
Posted by twoifbysea
I know it's been done before, but at a party last night my MOH presented me with a basket of candles along with 'The Candle Poem' and read it out loud in front of my FH and girlfriends![]()
It was so sweet and I got really choked up! She also used blue and white in the basket which are my colors. Just thought I'd share!!
A basket of candles that come in a pair
In all different colors, for you two to share
The white ones burn first
They are wrapped in white lace
To celebrate your first married night
In your new chosen place.
The green pair is taller, and also much thinner
Burn with the first company, you have over for dinner.
The dark blue candles are for after your first fight
Use them to burn while making up all night.
Pink candles set the mood and pave the way
For your first married Valentine’s Day.
Now, when your first year of marriage is through
The cream anniversary pair, will light for you two.
Red candles aflame, both your futures are bright
Celebrate promotions you’ve worked toward with all of your might.
By this time we hope, maybe, just maybe
You can light the purple ones, on the birth of your baby.
And just when you thought you’d put these away
Take the light blue ones out-for your fifth anniversary day.
Now just one more pair left - for the big 2 5
The anniversary pair that will keep your love alive.
Congratulations cathleen and Marc
On the start of your forever
May the two of you always be happy together
And burn these candles
Just the way we said
But please don’t forget-blow them out before bed!
I love this! This is my favorite gift to bring to a shower!! everytme a friend gets married i make one of these!
