Classic Wedding Jokes

Good for a few laughs at a wedding when slipped in amongst the emails (previously faxes and still further back, telegrams) from those who could not attend!

If you have any others, please email them to me email.gifand I’ll put them here for all to enjoy!



Here's a new one I wrote myself. The key to it is that the meaning of syllables in the 'poem' is hidden from the reader. So if someone reads this aloud:

Dear [Bride] and [Groom],
Congratulations to you both and best wishes for the future.
In honour of the occasion I have penned these special words for you.
The reader may not appreciate the meaning here,
but I know you will:

Can track all,
The lass time we
Roll this mash,
Door dawn or views.

Pike more whine,
Dare my but still –
Roar from lass,
Timed eye just say.

Their doubt loud?
What sin thee struck.
Zen he way,
Some buddy's top.

Me please thin,
Guy's head in huff.
Full dare gain,
And unto well!



You will hear this:

Dear [Bride] and [Groom],
Congratulations to you both and best wishes for the future.
In honour of the occasion I have penned these special words for you.
The reader may not appreciate the meaning here,
but I know you will:

Can't recall the last time we were all this smashed – or'd one of you spike my wine?
Damn, my butt's still raw from last time.
Did I just say that out loud?
What's in these drugs anyway!?
Somebody stop me please!
Think I said enough.
Fooled again and done too well!

Dear [Bride] & [Groom],

Congratulations to you both and best wishes for the future.
Can't recall the last time we were all this drunk – or did one of you blokes
spike my drink with a daterape drug again? My butt's still sore from last time...
Did I just read that out loud? Maybe I should have read this to myself before
reading it out to all of you...
...ok, it's not funny any more, it's just embarrassing – move on to the next one!!


Dear [Groom],

Sorry we couldn’t make it to the wedding - hope you have a great day - please send us a photo of yourself and your gorgeous wife, preferably mounted…


I overheard [Bride] talking to Groom just a short while ago, "Will you love me when I get old?" she asked.

"Love you?" answered [Groom].  "I shall idolize you.  I shall worship the ground under your feet. I shall... um... er... you’re not going to look like your mother, are you?"


[Groom] how could you do this to us. You said that we were your only true girls.  Oh well best of luck.

To [Groom]

Trying to figure out why you got married, especially after the most recent survey on women showed that 10% of the men interviewed liked women with thin legs. Another 15% preferred muscular legs. The rest liked something in between.


[Groom] I’m glad that we are married.  Now I can protect you from all those OTHER two-timing gold–diggers.

From [Bride]


[Groom] remember that everything is shared in a marriage.

You get to share the blame while [Bride] gets to share the credit.

(...and your credit card!)


[Groom],

After tonight
Your bedsprings might
Be a little light...

She'll offer her honour,
He'll honour her offer,
And all night long he'll be on 'er, off 'er, on 'er, off 'er...
