Being the Maid-of-Honor in your friend’s wedding can be a true blessing. You will be there for her as she plans the Big Day, you will announce her walk down the aisle and you will stand by her as she puts on the most important piece of jewelry she will ever wear – her wedding ring.
Naturally, you want to offer your friend a wedding speech that’s truly memorable – but how do you do that? How do you write the perfect speech? We have gathered some tips for you – so read on and find out more.
- Whatever you do, don’t postpone it. Really, don’t try to procrastinate on this one. Start early, put down your thoughts, write a speech, edit it and practice it in the mirror. Take your time doing it – these are not just random words, they are words that mean a lot for your best friend and her future spouse.
- Follow the classic pattern. Start by introducing yourself and your relationship with the bride, tell a story that shows what an amazing woman she is, say something nice about her future husband too and conclude with a cheerful toast. This is a fail-proof recipe that works every single time.
- Be funny, but always make sure you don’t go overboard. Don’t offend anyone – not the bride, not her sister and not her life partner either. Furthermore, please pay attention to the fact that while it is perfectly fine to have a glass of wine before the speech, it is not OK to have one too many. Keep yourself sober, keep your smile on your face and keep your speech short and sweet.
