Your Groom Wedding Speech

speeches and then modify one. However, if you want to make a really funny groom's
speech, then it must come from your heart.
'Darling,' says Barry to his wife, Sarah, 'I invited a friend home
for supper.'
'What? Are you crazy?' Sarah splutters, 'The house is a mess, I
didn't go shopping, all the dishes are dirty, and I don't much feel like
cooking a fancy meal.'

While enjoying a lunchtime pint in a Newcastle pub in the Scotswood Road,
four elderly Geordies* were discussing everything from football, the economy,
to the weather, to how things used to be in the "good old days."
Eventually the conversation moved on to their wives. One bloke turned
to the guy on his right and asked, 'Eh, Alan, aren't you and your lass
celebrating your fiftieth wedding anniversary soon?'
'Sure, man, we are,' Alan
replied.
'Well, are you gonna do anything special to celebrate, man?'
another bloke asked.
Alan pondered this for a moment, then replied, 'For our twenty-fifth
anniversary, I took Hazel to Sunderland. Maybe for our fiftieth, I'll go
down there and get her back.'

nickname for a person from the Tyneside [NE] region of England, or the name
of the dialect of English spoken by these people.

Brian had asked Dave to help him out with cutting his rather large garden
hedge after work, so Dave went straight over to Brian's home. When they got
to the front door, Brian went straight up to his wife, gave her a big hug
and told her how beautiful she was and how much he had missed her at work.
When it was time for supper, he complimented his wife on her excellent
cooking, kissed her and told her how much he loved her.
Once they were cutting the privet, Dave told Brian that he was surprised
that he fussed so much over his wife. Brian said that he'd started this
about six months ago, it had revived their marriage, and things couldn't be
better. Dave thought he'd give it a go.
When he got home, he gave his wife a massive hug, kissed her and told her
that he loved her. His wife burst into tears. Dave was confused and asked
why she was crying. She said, 'This is the worst day of my life. First,
little Nigel fell off his bike and twisted his ankle. Then, the washing
machine broke and flooded the basement. And now, you come home drunk!'

Newlywed Conversation
"Dear, don't expect the first few meals to be great. It takes time to
find the right restaurant."
Devil or Angel?
A man was walking in the street when he heard a voice. "Stop! Stand
still! If you take one more step, a brick will fall down on your head
and kill you." The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of
him. The man was astonished.
He went on, and after awhile he was going to cross the road. Once
again the voice shouted: "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step a
car will run over you and you will die." The man did as he was
instructed, just as a car came careening around the corner, barely
missing him.
"Where are you?" the man asked. "Who are you?"
"I am your guardian angel," the voice answered.
"Oh yeah?" the man asked. "And where the hell were you when I got
married?"

attorney present. You may now kiss the bride.'

Here is the traditional order of wedding speeches:
The father of the bride.
A good way to start is to welcome all the guests. He then
usually talks fondly about his daughter. As with most speeches, it is
accepted that a mixture of affectionate anecdote and humour generally works
well. He then toasts the bride and groom.
The groom speaks next and replies on behalf of himself
and his wife [in these modern times it should be remembered that more and
more brides are making their own speeches*]. He aims to thank those people
involved in helping them both in the planning of the wedding and distributes
gifts to those who are to receive more than a verbal "thank you." The groom
then may talk about his new wife before proposing a toast to the bridesmaids.
My wife - and I love saying that! - would not be the person she is
without the love and support of her parents. And I want to thank them
for welcoming me into their family. As my new mother-in-law said, she
is not losing a daughter but gaining a washer-upper!
*If the bride is to make a speech it should take place following the
groom's. It may seem obvious, but joint speeches should be co-ordinated well
beforehand since both will probably wish to say much the same thing.
The best man's speech now follows. He thanks the bride
and bridegroom on behalf of the bridesmaids and himself for asking them to
be part of their special day and for the gifts they have received and then
he reads out telegrams, cards, e-mails or other messages from friends and
relatives who couldn't be at the wedding. He will then go on to talk about
the groom in what can be the highlight, or in some cases lowlight, of the
wedding speeches. Humour and anecdote abound. Finally the best man
should then propose a toast to the parents of the bride and bridegroom.
