Maid of Honor Sister Speeches That Work

Posted by Dana on Thursday 21 October 2010


Here are some killer tips that make the maid of honor confident, humorous, and eloquent while delivering a speech as your sister’s maid of honor.

Unwrap the Speech with an Impact

The sole purpose of the starting part of the speech would be to quickly clutch the attention of the guests. It’s an excellent idea to get started with a humorous story. It also works well if you begin with a moving and emotional story. This will help you grab the attention you want and produce interest within your speech.

Use a Humor that Feels Appropriate to the Speech

Humor is one of the indisputable icebreakers and it’s truly entertaining. Using suitable jokes or hilarious anecdotes work great. But stay away from humiliating the wedding couple or guests. In most of the cases, humor quickly melts down the hearts of the wedding guests and adds more color to their pleasure on the wedding reception.

Try and add some sentiments to the speech

The wedding is some of the most memorable events of your sister’s life. And so is the wedding speech. Since the wedding speech would be directed mainly towards your sister, it should almost be highly emotional. The sentiment in a sister’s maid of honor speech revolves around sweet memories or incidents the two sisters shared with each other.

And finally, adding some thoughtful quotations on love, life, joy, husbands, wives, or marriage, can reinforce the basic theme of the speech. It is also a good idea to add hilarious quotes. Just make sure that they suit with the theme of the speech.

Can You Still Make A Speech Even If You Hate The Groom?

Posted by Dana on

Yep, I actually got asked this the other day.

“I’ve got to make a Maid Of Honor Speech and I hate the groom. He’s a jerk. What should I say?”

Well my first instinct was to come up with some witty put downs for the groom but then luckily, I started to think. Then it got scary. So here goes…

Ask yourself  WHY you do not like him.

Are you jealous of her, or maybe of them as a couple?

Do you know something about him that your friend or sister (the bride) does not? Is he a bad or dangerous person (history of violence etc). Has he had affairs during their relationship? Has he had an affair with someone she knows (please say it wasn’t you!)?

If it is not any of these, then maybe you have picked up on some  doubts that the bride has (that she is afraid to admit, confront or own up to). She may harbour serious doubts about the marriage but be scared to do anything because arrangements are at an advanced stage.

You may have stumbled on something that needs to be addressed.  Maybe they have different reasons for wanting to get married (“it was the next step” or “all of our friends’ were getting married” etc). Perhaps they have different expectations of what the marriage will be. Maybe he has some doubts that need to be addressed?

Whatever it is, it needs attention now, not at the wedding. Making your feelings known during the wedding speeches is too late, pointless and will lead to trouble. You may fall out with the bride just when she needs you most.

Just remember, if you are making the maid of honor speech, then they are already married and it will be too late. Maybe, just maybe however …he IS just a jerk, period.

This did not turn out as I thought it would but please let me know what you think (no spam or backlink only comments. It takes me ages to delete them).

You see, as a professional wedding planner, I’m often asked: “What is the secret of a successful wedding speech or toast”… and my answer always is: Inspiration and Preparation.

I know that planning a wedding takes a whole of time and it could be a stressing process. One thing you don’t want to stress about is your wedding toast.  That’s why I highly recommend that you get prepared in advanced because you don’t want to look stupid in front of everybody and you don’t want to embarrassed anybody, specially the  bride, the groom or the parents of the happy couple.

 An excellent way of preparing yourself to your wedding speech is by looking at some wedding toast examples. The best place where I can think you can see some great examples, besides this web-site of course is in a website called Wedding Speech 4 You.

Believe me when I tell you, I’ve been in a lot of wedding speech sites but Wedding Speech 4 You is by far the place site I’ve ever seen.  I know the website might not look too flashy because it does not have great graphics but their content is phenomenal.

And, as a one little piece of advice, if when the time comes that you have to deliver your wedding speech,  you have forgotten what the hell you were going to say… keep this in mind: simply speak from your heart. Don’t  let your mind fool you by trying to elaborate big words because will get really nervous…. Just listen to your heart has to say as it is filled with love for the bride or the groom. The bible says in 1 Corinthians 13:4-6

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”

I hope you enjoy my website and I’m looking forward to reading your comments!

Maid of Honor Speeches – Go Easy On The Booze!

maid of honor speeches

Hey girls, this seems so obvious but it still creates mayhem. It’s unfair that the guys seem to get away with it rather than the girls (hey that’s life) but too much alcohol on your part could spell disaster. You want people to remember the maid of honor speeches for the right reasons.

Your friend’s / sisters / cousin’s wedding is always an emotional time. Your maid of honor speech is going to be difficult at the best of times as well as you having to follow others such as the bride and groom and the parents of the bride and groom.

It is so tempting to have a little tipple to “calm your nerves” before your maid of honor speech. Well, there’s a huge difference between calming your nerves and causing a riot! I’ve seen girls swear, insult the bride’s relatives or make themselves look complete and utter fools. It’s a guarranteed way to foul up the wedding (but be remembered by everyone for years to come for all the wrong reasons).

The most embarrassing one I have seen is a “lady” stop halfway through her speech because she could not remember what she was supposed to be saying. Everyone thought something really profound was going to be said but nothing happened.

She never thought to look down at her notes. Everyone was too polite to say anything until the Bride’s father decided enough was enough and thanked her for her contribution. It’s funny now but at the time it caused a lot of grief.

So, just be careful how much you have before your maid of honor speeches (including guzzling the champagne meant for the toasts). You can let your hair down (not yourself) later in the day.

Funny Father of the Bride Speech

Posted by Dana on

There was no endpoint listening at http://api.microsofttranslator.com/v1/Soap.svc that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.

As the father of the bride, you will probably want to honor your daughter with a funny wedding toast. The father of the bride toast can be funny and heartfelt all at the same time. It is a culmination of memories new and old. As a self declared expert in writing funny wedding toasts, I have the following advice to offer to great Dads.

Your little princess has grown up and is taking a huge leap in life. She is probably almost as nervous as you are for her. You can put her mind at ease with a father of the bride toast that pulls on her heartstrings yet leaves the room laughing all at the same time. Every bride loves to reminisce about her childhood and sharing both her brightest and funniest moments together will be sure to please her.

All funny wedding toasts take some planning. Most people can’t pull off an impromptu speech about the happenings of years gone by. My advice is to take some time and write down some memories, both her embarrassing moments and the moments that made you the proudest father on earth. A great combination of the two can make your father of the bride toast memorable for all.

Think back to some of the funny toasts you have heard at other weddings and you will realize that they probably all have the same thing in common, a collaboration of memories from childhood ranging through adulthood. Everyone has both memories that make us proud and memories that make us laugh. Using a combination of the two for your funny wedding speech will most likely leave your little girl in tears- happy tears!

As the father of the bride, you have years of memories to choose from. You don’t want to make your funny wedding toast too long, try to keep it to three to five minutes. You will be amazed at how much you can say in that short amount of time. Remember, you are not the only person giving a wedding toast and the night is only so long!

One last piece of advice, try not to embarrass your daughter too much! This is her big day after all and she will appreciate the fond memories you share but she won’t want to dwell on all of her embarrassing moments in life. Start off your funny wedding toast with stories of how she ran away when she was ten or wrecked the car when she was 16. Finish the toast off with some great advice for making her marriage last or a fond memory of her graduating college- maybe even the first time she introduced you to her new husband.

Funny wedding toasts come from the heart, remember that! Memories make for the best laughter. Make her laugh but be sure to remind her how proud you are of her. This is her one and only big day so make your funny wedding toast something she will remember for years to come.
