Rhymes to Remember

Bespoke verse, rhymes and poems for special occasions

Whether you are planning a wedding, celebrating another special occasion or trying to find the right words to honour someone special, writer and poet Sally R. Wilkes is able to work with you to create a bespoke poem that is truly meaningful and unique to you.

A bespoke poem is a beautiful and memorable way to personalise a wedding. It is a thoughtful and sentimental gift for a birthday, a wedding anniversary or another special occasion. A bespoke poem is also a lovely way to say thank you or to show someone how much they mean to you. Whether you are looking for something amusing, heart-warming or tear-jerking, Sally is able to draw on the type of emotions that you want your recipient or audience to feel. See your thoughts, feelings and memories transformed into a bespoke poem written in rhyming verse – a rhyme to remember!

If you don’t feel that something bespoke is quite what you are looking for, Sally also writes some more generic poems and quotes, which are available on several items from wedding backdrops and signs to artwork, greetings cards and home decor. If there is a particular topic or theme you would like to see a poem written about then please feel free to get in touch. Sally always welcomes a challenge!

ā€œMy bespoke poem for my wedding is everything I dreamed of and more. It’s so very special and I will treasure it forever. Thank you for understanding exactly what I wanted.ā€

"My grandparents were so touched with their poem, and everyone in the family has commented on how well Sally captured the essence of each of our relationships with them."

"I gave Sally a list of things that she did, memories, quirky things that only meant something to us. Sally took the time to speak to me and listen to the stories behind this list so that our poem would have meaning and not just be words on a piece of paper. The end result was amazing."

The first shoot I ever organised myself has only g The first shoot I ever organised myself has only gone and been featured in @lovemydress 🤩

The shoot, titled ā€œLetters Of Loveā€, was held at @shottlehall back in August.  It was a day full of emotion for me as it felt like the culmination of all my work over the last few years was right there before my eyes. My words were showcased on fabric backdrops, on wooden signs, inside the wedding dress, even on the cake!

The team of suppliers involved were just amazing and I’m so incredibly proud of what we achieved together that day. Bravo team!!

I have so many fond memories of my grandparents fr I have so many fond memories of my grandparents from when we were children. Whenever I feel a little bit sad, I take comfort from these memories. Most of them wouldn’t even seem that significant to everyone else...

Rubbing our hands on the herbs in their garden and trying to guess what they were. Colouring in old Christmas and birthday cards using crayons stored in a little drawer in the kitchen table. Dancing around to the built-in songs on the keyboard. Being threatened with having to sleep under the dining table if we didn’t stop messing about šŸ˜‚

Grandparents pass on knowledge and tell us stories of old. They have a special level of patience. They listen. They teach us things. Grandparents have an impact on our lives in ways we never really see or understand until we are grown.

This bridesmaid bouquet from @flowerkraut photogra This bridesmaid bouquet from @flowerkraut photographed by @arius_photography is just...wow! I spotted the photo when it was posted by @becomingone.co and I asked what the ivy like leaves were (I’m not very good with flowers and foliage šŸ™ˆ). Apparently they are nasturtium leaves. Aren’t they pretty? And the colour of the dress is almost identical to the dresses my bridesmaids wore šŸ’š
