The 10 Simple Steps You Need For the Perfect Wedding Speech or Toast

When you are required to make a wedding speech or wedding toast, whether as best man or bridegroom, you must prepare it beforehand. This way, you will be able to deliver a speech that combines the preparedness of a Boy Scout and the spontaneity of a Letterman. And if your fear is that a perfect wedding speech is difficult to make let alone deliver, then you are in luck because you can divide the pleasant task into ten simple steps!

1. Visit the Past

Take a trip down memory lane and come up with a memory that is either sentimental or funny or both. Hint: It must be something that will bring smiles of mirth or tears of happiness to the guests and wedding entourage.

2. Write it Down

On a note card, write down your fondest and nicest memory that you selected from your visit to the past. You can write it as you remembered it to be and worry about little tweaks later on.

3. Ask Around

Even when you have your initial idea, ask your family and friends about their ideas for your wedding speech. They will have different ideas so just select the one that suits your personality best. After all, you are only required to be yourself, no more, no less.

4. Make a List

You have so many people to thank for the success of the wedding - both sets of parents, the wedding entourage, the guests and especially the bride - when you're the bridegroom that it is always best to make a list and incorporate it into your wedding speech or wedding toast.

5. Make a Draft

Now that you have you made your research, it's time to make a draft. Don't worry if it's not in Churchill's caliber just so long as it reflects your nice feelings about the union. Edit as you practice to smooth out the rough edges and get feedback from family and friends. Tip: No vulgar words and critical assessments.

6. Remember for a Moment

When your turn is coming up, remember what you were supposed to say. You might forget some passages but that's alright as long as you remember the general outline and stick to it.

7. Stand Up

Now, it's crunch time! When your name is called to speak, stand up to be noticed. This is very important as you want to call attention to what you have to say about the union and the guests will appreciate seeing you as you speak instead of craning their necks.

8. Smile and Wave

Okay, that would be an exaggeration since the smile will do the job of relaxing you and the guests. Just smile because it shows your good intentions and gears up the guests for a nice wedding speech or wedding toast from you.

9. Deliver Your Wedding speech or wedding toast

When you have the guests' attention, you can then deliver your wedding speech or wedding toast. Say it just like you practiced it to your satisfaction and the approval of your practice audience - not too fast, not too slow, with a smile to your face and eye contact with the audience.

10. Make Your Thanks/Toast the Bride and Groom

After your 5-minute speech, that's about how long as you ought to go, extend your thanks and toast to the couple with your congratulations and well wishes. You can take a bow, if you want to.

And that is how you make and deliver a perfect wedding speech or wedding toast in 10 simple steps!
