Toast with a flare
of originality
Public speaking can be fun especially you already
know everyone there at the wedding and they are your
good friends so only be grateful that they asked you
to say something.. This is a great opportunity to be
the best friend and hold honor and make them proud
of you , if its a beach wedding talk about how
wonderful it was to have the wedding outside.
Before the Wedding
Before the actual wedding
day you will want to spend a little time thinking
about your speech. This is a very individual sport
so to speak and what you do with your time is really
up to you. You are the only one that knows how you
work and so take that into consideration. For some
people writing the speech out is helpful. For others
it might just be rehearsing in front of the mirror
or in the car on your way to work. Wherever you
learn best and are the most creative. So find your
optimal state and time for learning an creative
thoughts and dedicated a little bit of time over the
span of a few days to plan out your speech in
whatever form work for you.
Things To Think
About
Sometimes its best just to
wait for the last moment and trust your gut on what
to say.. Some thing that you
might want to include in your speech could be:
Poem
what you feel love is like
a blessing
a joke
a personal tale about the couple
At The Wedding
Don't Drink - It is fine to
drink after your speech and have a great time and
enjoy yourself. However no one wants to hear a big
long winded drunk guy spot off about marriage in a
drunken slur. So save your drinking until after the
speech is made.
Get Their Attention - When
the time come to make you speech stand up and gently
tap on your glass with a fork. You might want to
practice this before hand because you want to hit
the glass hard enough for everyone to hear but it
would be really embarrassing to break the glass.
After you do this be patient and wait. One of the
worst things you can do is get upset and try to yell
over everyone to get their attention. Just stand
patiently and people will quite down
Try and make it creative
but Short-This is to somewhat true but if you
have a great story go ahead and tell it , with flare
and some fun and plus always nice. Leave the your
friends asking more question and wanting more.
Focus On The Love of the
couple Couple - The
wedding day about them only not what you and your
friends think....its a the special day for the
lovers .So i say keep your talking always focused on
the bride.
Finish With the tale of a
great laugh and with a punch - Give a nice
ending and then praise your the couple of all their
honor and wonderful tales and add a toast to
them
