Hey lovers! Pass this episode to your mother, father, maid of honor and anyone giving a speech at your wedding. We'll dive into the simple ways to give a great wedding speech that is short and sweet.
It doesn't take much to wow at a wedding. The magic of the moment lends itself to amplify a few thoughtful sentiments that will encourage the couple as they enter their marriage. What an honor to bless them on this important day.
Life gives us a few sweet occations to celebrate the people we love as we journey through life with them. Take the time to embrace this unique moment and formulate a great wedding speech.
My Simple Speech formula (3-5 Minutes)
- NAME, ROLE (Hi my name is Dani and I'm the cousin of the bride and the maid of honor)
- How you met person 1 (I grew up with my cousin and we were basically sisters...)
- Positive attribute about Person 1: (she is so caring and so sweet)
- Example/ Story or more detail about that trait (one time she saved a squirrel)
- How/ When you met person 2 (we started hearing about this guy from work...)
- Positive attribute about person 2 (I have seen how tenacious and industrious this person is)
- Example of positive attribute or story (one time we all got stuck in an elevator- person 2 figured out how to get us out)
- How these attributes will be so great together in marriage (how these traits will work together in their marriage)
At the end of the speech say "Cheers to the happy couple!" or
"Let's raise our glasses to Person 1 and Person 2: Cheers!"
