You're making a wedding speech

Nothing to worry about, although most do, as long as you follow a few basic rules and put in a little planning your wedding speech will not actually be as hard as you think ...

* Don’t stress over your wedding speech. It is actually easier than other forms of public speaking, as people will expect you to be nervous.
* If you don’t feel confident memorizing your wedding speech, use prompt cards. Cards are better than paper because it is less obvious if your hands are shaking!
* Try not to read you whole wedding speech from the cards just note key points. Look up around the company and try to involve the whole room through your body language.
* Keep you wedding speech brief! It’s better to leave them wanting more than dragging on and loosing there attention. Besides you wont need to think of as much to say.
* Try to keep the content of your wedding speech neutral and high vibe, avoid being crude, rude or sarcastic, particularly if there are older, or very much younger, guests at the wedding.
* Use a funny memory as your first line of you wedding speech to get a laugh. This will relax you and get the attentions of the guests.
* Make sure that you don’t forget proper wedding speech etiquette, and thank the right people for their help.
* Don’t panic if the worst happens and you forget your wedding speech. Just speak from the heart. After all, you know how happy you feel!
