Writing A Wedding Speech
INTRODUCTION
Writing and giving a wedding speech is a praiseworthy action and a very important contribution to a wedding service. This contribution will be remembered by friends and family for a very long time, so feel honored about your participation in this special event.
Writing the speech feels like an overwhelming task, especially in your current emotional state because you may feel excited, scared, nervous, happy, grateful, or all of the above. You may have difficulty concentrating or maintaining your composure during this process. THIS IS COMPLETELY NORMAL. Stop and take a few moments for yourself, and remember that you can write and deliver a great wedding speech. All you have to do is follow the instructions in the remainder of this guideline, and you will give a touching speech and toast.
Right now, try and keep a positive attitude. Remember that everybody at the wedding reception will be behind you completely. Do not be concerned about giving the perfect delivery. Do what you can given the short time frame. Again, this is can be an emotionally challenging time for you. Nobody expects you to have great stage presence, or be an amazing orator. JUST BE YOURSELF, TAKE YOUR TIME, AND CONVEY YOUR FEELINGS FOR YOUR LOVED ONE. The most touching speeches convey your emotions and your feelings. They are not a summary of the person’s life story.
FIRST THINGS FIRST
Before writing the wedding speech, it is important to overcome your feelings of fear. You have many confusing questions running through your mind: “What do I say?” “Will people like it?” “How long will it be?” “Where do I even begin?” These questions will be answered for you in this guide. The important thing for you to do is put your fears aside and break everything down into small pieces. Remember that you eat the elephant in many small portions, not just one bite. Nothing great is done in one sitting.
