A lot of people read out poems at wakes and funerals. It is useful to follow some standard conventions when writing about poetry.
Since a death is always associated with a painful loss, poems should be in an uplifting and inspirational tone. By adding a dose of laughter to your speech as a best man, maid of honour, father of the bride or mother of the groom and even the MC, doing it at the right time is the key, something that will have to come from seeing the audience and determining how you feel, however, there is never a wrong time to crack a tasteful joke during your wedding speech. You are not expected to become a poet overnight.
Read it out aloud when you are working on it, in that way you can really hear how it sounds and what need to be changed. Eulogy poems have a global message that crosses cultural boundaries. It is the flow and pace of poetry along with the tempting way the outcomes aren t revealed until the end that can make them so pleasurable to listen to.
Give it a try, you will not regret it. I have always allowed myself to be led wherever my intuition leads me in the moment.
