To be asked to give a wedding reading is an honour, but it can also be quite a daunting experience so you shouldn’t take it for granted that your kind offer will be welcomed with open arms. A simple conversation face-to-face is the best way to make the offer and it is wise to seek a response, positive or negative, as soon as possible to allow you to finalise arrangements with the Register Office, or perhaps even look elsewhere for someone to give the reading. Don’t force someone into doing something they are reluctant to do, but likewise don’t be upset if they turn down your request. The key is to get someone who you are happy to give the reading and who is happy to do it.
As soon as all the previously mentioned tasks have been completed, your final chore is to confirm details with the Superintendent Registrar and get the green light from them. Once this has been done, that’s the planning of the wedding readings over – roll on the Big Day!
