Ideas For Your Father Of The Groom Speech
Writing a speech is not always easy. So it’s great to have ideas to guide you when writing any wedding speeches. Below are a few ideas to keep in mind:
- While it’s great to add humor to your speech, you should be careful that it doesn’t go too far. Just the right amount of funny in your anecdotes that would keep your audience listening and in no way roast your son.
- It’s okay to show whatever emotion you feel on this big day and in front of your family and friends. It’s totally understandable, and you can include it in your words if you much prefer.
- In the body of your speech, you can talk about your son’s childhood, his nicknames, friends and memorable moments. Mention your family and the role he has played; also about the couple and how his new relationship has brought him love and happiness. You can also talk about your personal relationship with your son.
- Leave the couple with words of wisdom. You’ve been on the journey they are about to embark on, and any advice you give will make your speech even more memorable.
- In a case where the father of the groom is unable to speak, perhaps for medical reasons, it is okay for the mother of the groom or some other close family member to speak on his behalf.
