How to Write a Groom Speech - 3 Steps to Perfect Groom Speeches
If you are wondering how to write a groom speech let me show you how you can get it done fast and easy. In three steps, you can have your groom speech done and all that's left is practice! Most people think a groom's speech has to have gut-busting anecdotes, embarrassing stories, and clever references. This is a huge misconception.
A good groom's speech comes from the heart and your special feelings. Ya, I know, guys don't like sharing their feelings, but it's the one time in your life you'll be glad you did.
It's not un-cool to use someone's speech; they can give you inspiration for your own groom speech. Just don't use it word for word. Follow the steps below and you'll turn out a great speech.
But first, forget the idea that wedding speeches need to sound like open mike night at the comedy club or that they have to be longer then a minute or two. Remember five minutes of listening to someone talk is a long time for the audience.
And second, don't and I repeat don't read your speech like a manuscript - "it says you need fancy words because you don't know how to talk." Just be yourself and talk as you normal do. . Your wedding is emotional times so use that emotion and speak from the heart, not a piece of paper. Use a few notes to remember what you want to say. Most people are very forgiving at weddings and you only have to worry about the reruns.
