A great wedding speech shouldn’t just aim for laughs at the couple’s expense – though what best persons speech would be complete without a little friendly embarrassment? A truly memorable speech is filled with love, emotion, and a journey that brings everyone along for the ride.
Donna’s daughter absolutely nailed it, delivering one of the most heartfelt speeches I’ve ever heard, at for Donna and Daniel’s wedding. Laughter turned to tears of joy and emotion.
Here are my 5 top tips for a great wedding speech:
1. Make it Personal – Share stories that connect with the couple and the guests, highlighting moments that reflect who they are.
2. Keep it Balanced – Mix humour with heartfelt moments. A little humour goes a long way, but remember to leave space for genuine expressions of love.
3. Practice, Don’t Memorise – Practising helps you feel confident but aim to speak naturally. Don’t worry about getting every word perfect – it’s the sentiment that counts. And put the phone down!
4. Stay Authentic – Speak from the heart, using your own voice. People connect most with speeches that feel genuine.
5. End on a High Note – Close with a meaningful toast or a wish for the couple’s future.
