Hey and thank you for taking the time to read this article on funny wedding speeches.
Not claiming or suggesting I am some kind of guru when it comes to humor at weddings but since I have been married for over a year and have went through this process many times as a best man for my friends, its suffice to say I know a thing or too, about what to do and not do as far as your funny wedding toasts are concerned.
I will keep this article short, sweet and to the point. Just some important advice I think you should know or keep in mind, so, let us get started.
In case some of you dont know or arent sure, basically a funny wedding toast is a wedding toast that is usually delivered by the either the best man, the father of the bride and the groom with added humor to make it funny and more interesting for the audience in attendance. However, anyone can include some jokes, as well as the bride herself. Below I will list a few things to keep in mind when delivering a funny wedding toast.
Here are a few things to remember:
1. Start by first thanking everyone for coming, of course.
2. Make sure you are relaxed and that your voice is loud and clear.
3. You want to make sure you are making eye contact with the audience, and not looking down or one specific person or even area.
4. Do not make it too long, 10 minutes maximum.
5. Always smile often. Easy thing to do, but you would be surprised how people forget this.
6. Last but not least, and this is a big one. Whatever you do, please, please do not offend anyone or say anything inappropriate. Also ensure that your jokes are for everyone, kids included.
If there was anything you needed to know, its what I just listed above. Those are the basic fundamentals to not only a funny wedding toast, but a good wedding speech as well. As far as the humor part is concerned, simply make light hearted jokes about how its a sad day for every man out there that another beautiful woman is off the market, etc. Jokes along those lines are fine.
To conclude, thank you for taking the time to read this article, its been a pleasure writing it, so I hope you enjoyed it. Last, but not least, good luck with your wedding and I hope you make funny wedding speeches as funny as possible.
