Introduction Thank you for choosing UltimateSpeeches.com. You have decided to own this speech package either because you were just looking for some ideas to get you set in the right direction, or you were feeling overwhelmed and really didn’t know where to begin or end. Either way, you now have the right information in your hands to guide you through writing a wonderful wedding speech! So, you can now breathe and relax! It is our goal to help you prepare your wedding speech by giving you sample speeches and extra information that you can use to personalize your speech. REMEMBER THAT THESE SPEECHES ARE SAMPLES. THEY ARE TO BE USED AS TEMPLATES OR GUIDELINES BY YOU. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU READ THROUGH ALL OF THE SAMPLE SPEECHES, AS WELL AS THE BONUS SECTIONS AND USE THE MATERIALS THAT YOU LIKE BEST TO PERSONALIZE YOUR OWN SPEECH. Some of you may choose to use these speeches word-for-word and just change the names. That’s okay, however, only you know your friends, family and audience. Use your best judgement. Nowadays, weddings can be much more non-traditional than in past years. For example, my two brothers and I were in my sister’s wedding as the ―Men of Honor‖. People are moving further away from the strict guidelines that were once followed. For this reason, there really isn’t a ―right‖ or ―wrong‖ way to deliver a best man’s speech. However, you do want to make sure that your stories, jokes, and overall speech are appropriate for everyone in the audience. This includes aunts, uncles, grandparents and children.

Toast v. Speech If you have been asked to ―say a few words‖, ―deliver a toast‖, or ―give a speech‖, it all means the same thing. IT MEANS THAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO GIVE A 1-3 MINUTE SPEECH THAT IS ENDED WITH A TOAST TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM! A toast is a blessing or good wish that you offered the married couple at the end of your speech. Nobody is expecting you to be a public speaker. Nobody expects you to dazzle the crowd with your incredible story telling abilities. This is NOT about you! The spotlight should not be removed from the newlyweds. Your speech should honor them and focus more on your daughter than the groom, since you are delivering the ―father of the bride speech‖. There is no rule on how long you must speak, however, 1-3 minutes is recommended. Speak from your heart about your daughter, touch on her new husband, and your speech will be great. If you get stuck, just look at her and tell her what she means to you or share some fond memories and then offer a toast. That’s it! Good luck! You’ll be great!

Speech #1 Family and friends: Welcome and many thanks for sharing in Jennifer and Brian’s most memorable day. On a personal note, as Jennifer’s Dad, this day is exceedingly special for me. Today I was able to witness my daughter get married and my-oh-my, doesn’t she look absolutely beautiful? Oh, and Brian you look okay too. (Laughter) Jennifer’s always been a beautiful girl… I can still fondly remember thinking how beautiful she was the day she was born. Besides beautiful, I can think of so many other adjectives that describe my Jennifer. Jennifer is a spectacular young woman and is very bright, articulate, organized, energetic, caring, warm, and special. Her mother and I are so proud of how she has utilized these gifts to attain her many accomplishments. One accomplishment that brings us particular pride is (replace with an accomplishment that you’re proud of) that she will be ordained as a Rabbi next June—something she’s always wanted to be. Jennifer has always been a positive, optimistic person, ever determined to do things her way… A story Jennifer’s mother and I never let her forget is (replace with a story) when in 4th or 5th grade she was to read the story ―Little Match Girl.‖ Jennifer read the first part and finished the report on the premise that they all lived happily ever after. Now for those of you familiar with ―Little Match Girl,‖ you might be chuckling—Jennifer’s rendition was the exact opposite of how the story is supposed to turn out. She amazed me that day and seldom does a day go by where she fails to amaze me with how truly exceptional she is.

What makes today even more special for me is that I watched my daughter marry a young man whom I greatly admire. Because I like adjectives so much, here are some to describe Brian—disciplined, driven, tenacious, athletic and, unlike most men, neat. I am most pleased to call him my sonin-law. And, it’s no wonder why Brian is such a great guy; he comes from a great family. My wife and I have had an incredibly good relationship with Brian’s wonderful parents and we look forward to getting to know each other even better in the years to come now that we are family. I think Jennifer and Brian have each grown as individuals as they have grown closer as a couple. As a result, their many gifts have been made to shine brighter. When they’re together, Jennifer and Brian appear entirely at ease and utterly in love. I don’t know how better to put it than they just seem to be so right for each other. Jennifer and Brian, I wish you the best this world has to offer and most importantly, I wish you beautiful children who will enrich your lives as much as you have enriched your parents’ lives. Thank you all very much for being here. Let’s enjoy this beautiful day together.

SPEECH #2 Good evening everyone and welcome! My name is Jim and I’m Jennifer’s father. It’s my pleasure to be in front of you today celebrating the wedding of two very special people, Jennifer and Brian. I’d like to welcome all of the guests here today to what is the beginning of a wonderful journey between two extraordinary people. Let me start by saying how proud I am to have a daughter like Jennifer and that she looks absolutely radiant today. All of us thank you, Jennifer and Brian, for all the time and work that you’ve put into this day. There are several other individuals that I’d like to recognize before I get into my short, 30-minute speech… (Laughter) Some I thank for their efforts and others for just blessing us with their presence. I thank my wife, Diane, for all of her efforts and hard work in bringing this day together so beautifully. I also would like to thank Brian’s parents, (fill in names), for everything they’ve done as well. I know how much it means to Jennifer, my wife and myself to have Jennifer’s grandparents, (fill in names), here today. Thank you for sharing this event with all of us; it means ever so much. Words don’t do justice for the way a father feels the day his daughter gets married. I remember the day that Brian came to me and asked me if he could have Jennifer’s hand in marriage. It felt so good to tell him, ―As long it’s the one always in my wallet‖! (Laughter) At this point in the proceedings, it is traditional to bring up a embarrassing moment from her past or to highlight a strange character trait so that you can have a laugh at her expense. But on the basis that she has got so much more on me than I have on her, in the interest of self-preservation, I’m just going to skip that. But I will tell you about the time she put an

advertisement in a singles magazine that read, ―husband wanted‖. She had 97 replies all saying the same thing, ―You can have mine‖. (Laughter) Brian also tried hard before he found my Jennifer. I understand he sent his photo to a Lonely Hearts Club but they sent it back saying, ―We’re not that lonely‖. (Laughter) On a serious note, as the father of the bride, I think that it’s my duty to offer some words of wisdom to my daughter’s new husband. To Brian, never go to sleep with an unfinished argument hanging over you. Be a man! Stay awake and fight to the bitter end! You’re going to lose anyway, so you might as well get it over and done with! Ladies and gentlemen, at this time I’d like to propose a toast. Please raise your glasses and join me. To Jennifer and Brian-- Congratulations and good luck you two, and may your marriage be filled with happiness, love, and understanding forever! Cheers!

SPEECH #3 (Stand up tall, with glass of wine in hand and a proud smile on your face.) Ladies and gentleman, family and friends-For those of you that may not know me, I’m Bruce Smith father of the Bride. I would like to thank all of you for being part of this glorious celebration. I’d like to give a special thank you to Pastor (or father, rabbi, etc.) fill in clergyman’s name for performing a beautiful ceremony today and blessing this marriage. I would also like to acknowledge and thank the parents of the groom, fill in names—for without them, this day literally would not be possible. I know many of you have traveled very long distances to be here today and for that we are all very grateful. I would also like to mention my parents, fill in names, which because of age are not able to make the trip but send their love and blessing for many happy years together for Sarah-Jane and Matt. Let me start off by congratulating the happy couple and by telling SarahJane how absolutely beautiful she looks today. I feel the same today as I did the day she was born-- simply over the moon. Her Mother and I were both so proud, as we are today, and I know your Mother is watching over you this day with great admiration and love. Sarah-Jane is a caring, sensitive person with a keen sense of humor. She takes commitment very seriously and I know she will make a wonderful wife for Matt. Matt, I want to welcome you to our family and I look forward to getting to know you better. Until right before the wedding, Matt and I had never met, but just the fact that Sarah-Jane has chosen Matt to spend the rest of her life with tells me how very special he truly is. Matt you did appear a little nervous earlier but I’m sure it was just typical wedding day jitters. Sarah-Jane on the other hand was quite calm and cool- that’s my girl… always knows how to get what she wants. Matt you can relax your in good hands.

(Laughter) Well I don’t propose to be wise, but if I could offer these three things-- keep no secrets from one another, always say I love you, and never go to bed angry. Now from the wise I once heard this. There are only two rules to a successful and happy marriage and if you remember and follow those rules, it will guarantee a life full of bliss love, and peacefulness. So, Matt, I’ll repeat them only once for you to remember. Rule number #1. Your wife is ALWAYS right. And rule number 2. In the event that your wife IS wrong, then see rule number one. (Laughter) Ladies and gentleman, at this time it is my honor and privilege to propose a toast to the newlyweds. Please raise your glasses and join me. (Pause for guests to raise glasses) To my beautiful daughter, and her wonderful husband-- congratulations and may your lives together be a journey of adventure, learning, loving, growing, and happiness. Cheers. (Guest toast. You did it! Congratulations!)

SPEECH #4 As Father of the bride, it is my privilege to make this speech, and I would like to start by saying what a pleasure it is to welcome, on this very happy occasion, Janet and Ken (replace names with parent’s of the groom), Chris' (replace with name of groom) parents, together with friends and relatives of both families. I'd like to thank Father Joe (replace with name of clergyman) for a moving service, the lovely bridesmaids, and the Father Joe’s friend for keeping the weather at bay. Wendy (replace with your wife’s name) and I are very proud today, to see Karla (bride’s name), looking so beautiful, married to Chris, the dashing groom. During the time we've known him, we've come to realize how special he is to her; and anyone can see that they're made for each other! We're delighted that Karla has chosen someone we like so much to be her partner. I would like to welcome my new son-in-law Chris into our family, Karla deserves a good husband and we certainly approve of her choice. He's taken the time to patiently explain the mysteries of my computer to me, and stopped me from having to perform 'impact engineering' with a hammer many times! (replace with personal story). We're very proud of Karla, she's always brightened our lives ...mainly by leaving all the lights on! She's always had plenty to say, usually on my telephone - I'm only joking of course, she's a lovely girl and very special to us. [Replace the following story with a personal memory or story] When she was a toddler, she was quite strong willed, and had an aversion to the word 'Yes'. She just wouldn't say it at any cost! I remember one Friday, we had some friends round, and one of them put some silver coins and sweets on the table. He said, "Karla, if you say yes, you can keep them."

She looked at the goodies, and said ... "No!" Someone else then put a dollar down, with the same result ... "No!" Soon everyone had put their entire wages on the table, but she still wouldn't say yes - her mother was practically crying by this time! Now, here she is, looking so lovely, married to a fine young man, so she's finally worked out how to say .... Yes! I asked Karla what she was looking for in a marriage, and she said, "Love, happiness and companionship". I asked Chris the same question, and he said "A widescreen TV," so that's him happy already! Apparently it's traditional for the bride's father to offer some thoughts and worldly advice about marriage, so here goes .... Karla, a perfect wife is one who helps her husband with the dishes .... And Chris, remember man is incomplete until he's married, then he's finished! Advice? Well, just keep four things in mind .... The first is love, closely followed by friendship, tolerance, and communication. Easy to say - can be quite hard to do. It now gives me great pleasure to propose a toast to the happy couple. Here's to the past, for all that you've learned, Here's to the present, for all that you share, Here's to the future, for all that you look forward to together. Ladies and Gentlemen, please be upstanding, and raise your glasses to Karla and Chris .... May your marriage be filled with happiness, love, and understanding forever! (lower glass and sip) Lot’s of understanding!

SPEECH #5 Welcome, everyone. For those of you who don’t know me, my name is Ian, and I’m Cindy’s Dad. I believe that as father of the bride, it is my dubious privilege to make the first speech – so, here’s one I prepared earlier! On behalf of Linda (your wife’s name) and myself, I would like to start by saying what a pleasure it is to welcome, on this very happy occasion Cindy’s Grandma and Grandpa, Cathie and Henry; together with all relatives and friends of both families. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank especially, Linda, for not only being a tolerant wife but more importantly an outstanding mother and the guiding influence in the upbringing of Cindy, culminating in today’s celebrations. Before I ask you to join me in a toast to the bride and groom, I’d like to bore you with a few words. I will try to keep them short, as I know that both the maid of honor and best man are really looking forward to standing here before you and making their speeches! Linda and I are very proud, to see Cindy, looking so radiant, on this her wedding day, now married to James. For Linda to choose James as her husband, we know that he is a good man and I welcome him into our family. Cindy is very choosy when it comes to men … she has taken her time to find the love of her life … and it’s no small feat what James has achieved, in winning her love. I’d like to offer some advice to the newlyweds: To Cindy, be sure to keep your receipt for marrying James because there are no returns or refunds without it. And to James, always help your wife with jobs around the house. It’s in your best interest--Apparently, there has never been a recorded case in history, where a wife has shot her husband, while he was doing the dishes.

You must both realize that marriage isn’t easy, but it’s not impossible. Many of us know that everyone faces ups and downs in a life commitment. There is no secret to a happy marriage. You’ll both have to work at it, like many of us. There is no challenge in a marriage that can not be overcome by the following three, three-word sentences. These are: I was wrong! You were right! I love you! Ladies and gentlemen, please stand, raise your glasses and join me in a toast. To Cindy and James, may your love be modern enough to survive the times and old fashioned enough to last forever! To the bride and groom!

Sample Speech #6 – Spiritual It is with great pleasure that I stand before you and welcome you all as we celebrate the marriage of my daughter Cathy to John. I am a man that has been many times blessed. I have a wonderful wife, wonderful children, and now I have a wonderful son-in-law. John….I welcome you to our family with love and respect. God is looking down on us all right now as we join Cathy and John in the celebration of their marriage. It is with God’s blessing that we are all here, in love and friendship. Cathy, you have been, and continue to be, a great source of joy and pride in my life. I have watched you grow from a baby to a small child, to teenager and then into a beautiful young lady. And today I am honored to watch you become the wife of your chosen life partner, John. I’m proud to have you as my daughter and look forward to many years of watching the two of you grow stronger and more spiritual in the eyes of God and your family and friends. I would now like to ask everyone to join me in a toast to my darling daughter and her new husband: For where the heart is, that is sure to be where your treasure is. Matthew 6:21

Sample Speech #7 – Funny At last, after attending wedding after wedding for the children of friends, I get to stand up here at my own daughter’s wedding….finally. Thanks for keeping me waiting, Cathy, until I had grey hairs! My wife, Edith, and I have waited years to finally see Cathy married. Only John will know how much we really paid him for this pleasure. Thank you, John, for taking this one off our hands. Cathy, from the first day that I laid eyes on you I have loved you with all my heart. And it was from when I first heard you cry in the hospital that I knew that you would be a handful. You are stubborn…..some would say this makes you determined. You are beautiful….thank god you take after your mother. You are intelligent…..yes, you can thank me for this one. And you are one of the most charming people I have had the pleasure of having in my life. From the first day that Cathy brought John home for a visit we knew that he was the one. No, it wasn’t that Edith and I were hoping he would be the one to marry her and make our lives easier. It was the way that they looked at each other. Cathy had the look of startled deer whenever John was around. And John had a look of adoration that is only seen in those men who are stricken with the love potion. John, just let me say that the women in this family keep that potion on hand at all times. So when you think that you’re going to say no, you can’t buy that pair of shoes….well out will come that potion.

Over the years Cathy has put Edith and I through the severe trials and tribulations of being the parents of a high spirited girl. We know that it’s this spirit that John has fallen in love with. Don’t try taming her John….as with the love potion, the women in this family dance to their own tune. All you can do is try to keep up. Fortunately the women in this family are also very good at waiting. No wait, I’m the one that is good at waiting….years of practice waiting for the women of this family to finish in the bathroom. But that’s another story. Cathy, I’m thrilled for you that you found that you one you want to grow old with….the next man in your life that you’re going to watch develop grey hairs. Your mother and I are honored and pleased to be able to say that we’re your parents. We love you. To everyone, please raise a glass, or two, as I toast my darling daughter and her husband: Here’s to love: A little sighing, a little crying, a little dying, and a touch of white lying. **************************************

Sample Speech #8 – Classic Hello everyone, Please join me in a toast as I begin this speech: To the happy couple: may all your troubles be little ones. I want to thank everyone for being part of our family’s celebration of the marriage of Cathy and John. This is a big day for us, as we watch Cathy and John prepare for a life together. We couldn’t be happier. John, we have come to know you over the past year. You are a wonderful partner for Cathy. You share her zest for life, her love of laughter, her determination to achieve, and her ability to spread love wherever she goes. To John’s parents….you have a wonderful son who we are proud to call our own as he marries Cathy today. We couldn’t ask for a finer son-in-law than John. It’s apparent that his charm and personality are a direct result of your love for him. We’re looking forward to the union of our two families. Cathy….our darling daughter….you are a joy to have in our lives. You have brought us so much happiness from the day that you were born. There is not a day that has gone by that I haven’t looked at you and marveled that you are mine. I love you very much and wish only happiness for you forever. No matter where you go, no matter what you do, you know that your family is here to support you and stand beside you, as we stand beside you today on your wedding day.

As I look out at the tables of familiar faces of loved ones and friends, I feel blessed that you’ve all come together to join in this celebration. Please enjoy the food and drinks, and most of all the companionship that can only come about when there is love in the room. Thank you. **************************************

Sample Speech #9 – Witty Cathy, Cathy, Cathy….once again you are costing your mother and I a fortune! After tonight, she’s all yours John! Edith and I want to welcome you all here today to celebrate the marriage of our daughter Cathy to John. Despite our rush to marry all of our children as soon as we could, Cathy resisted and waited until she found the right guy. This is a good thing, I guess, since maybe we won’t have to go through an expensive divorce now that Cathy has found the right one. Thank you Cathy. Now that Cathy is moving out, Edith and I have big plans. First we’re going to take a long vacation…..alone. And then we’re going to convert Cathy’s bedroom into a media room. A new large screen TV, surround stereo. But perhaps I better not mention that here since John is a big sport’s fan and may think that my big screen TV is his big screen TV. John….anything I have is yours…..my daughter, the use of my car, drop in dinners whenever you want them….but the TV….it’s all mine. Another thing that Edith and I are going to do is go over the Cathy and John’s for dinner….often and frequently! So John, better sign Cathy up for those cooking lessons! To John’s parents….thanks for welcoming our daughter into your family. Do you really know what you’ve just gotten??? A high spirited girl who is going to keep you on your toes. Let me know if you need any advice or tips on how to deal with some of the things that she comes up with.

Cathy….we love you very much…no joking on that one….we love you. Your mother and I wish you years and years of happiness, joy, and prosperity. **************************************

Sample Speech #10 – Generic Hello, There are many days in a man’s life when he feels proud….and today is one of those days. As I stand here before, looking at my daughter Cathy seated beside her new husband, I’m feeling nothing but love and pride. This young lady has been a joy in life from the day that she was born. I have cherished every minute that I have had you in my life, Cathy. And now I look forward to watching you grow as a wife to a very wonderful man. The time has flown by from the day we brought you home from the hospital. Like all families we have our stories….of when you first learned to walk, when you learned to ride your bike, the first boy that you ever brought home, to the day you graduated from high school. Cathy, your mother and I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you for being you! From the first day that you brought John home, I was pleased with your choice in a boyfriend. John was polite, charming, and intelligent. And he treated you with the respect that you deserve. I couldn’t be more happy for you, Cathy, in your choice of a husband. John, Edith and I would like to welcome you to our family with open arms and hearts. We know that you are the one and only for our daughter, and it is with great pride that we share your relationship and marriage with all our families and friends. Let me finish off my speech with a bit of wisdom for Cathy and John: May you grow old on one pillow!

To our friends: May Fortune be as generous with them as she has been in giving us such friends! To the bride and groom: may we all be invited to your Golden Wedding celebrations! To the lamp of true friendship. May it burn brightest in our darkest hours and never flicker in the winds of trial. As Sydney Smith wrote: here's to marriage. That happy estate that resembles a pair of scissors, so joined that they cannot be separated, often moving in opposite directions, yet punishing anyone that comes between them. Live today to the fullest! Remember, it's the first day of the rest of your life. To that nervous, fidgety, restless, impatient, uncomfortable but enviable fellow, the groom. To the bride: let her remember that we give her this husband on approval. He can be returned for credit or exchange, but her love will not be refunded. To the bride and groom: may the roof above you never fall in and may you both never fall out.

To the bride and groom: as you slide down the banister of life, may the splinters never face the wrong way!

A health to you, A wealth to you, And the best that life can give to you. May fortune still be kind to you. And happiness be true to you, And life be long and good to you, Is the toast of all your friends to you. To marriage, which is made in heaven, but don't forget, so is thunder and lightening! Here is to the two secrets to a long-lasting happy marriage. Here's to a good sense of humor and a short memory! Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction. To the man who has conquered the Bride's heart, and her mother's. Here's to marriage, a happy marriage is still the greatest treasure within the gift of fortune. Here's to the bride and groom, May your happiest days of your past,

Be the saddest days of your future!
