How To Go About Writing A Funny Wedding Speech

There are several ways to go about writing a wedding speech. While some prefer to keep it sentimental and heart-warming, others opt to deliver a funny wedding speech. It can depend on the role you have and what type of a person the bride or groom is. However, adding some humor can be beneficial considering the event.

The number one thing you have to keep in mind when writing a funny wedding speech is to keep it clean. You have to remember it is a family event with kids in the audience. Do not include any vulgar words or inappropriate stories within the speech. There is nothing wrong with telling a joke or two as long as it is PG rated.

Whether you are the best man, maid of honor, or father of the bride, the reason you have been given the role you have is because you have made an impact on the bride or groom’s life. You know who they are and have shared a number of memories with them. Therefore, make your speech as personal as possible.

While there is nothing wrong with including a joke or two that you found online, you are better off keeping it personal. This shows you have taken the time to write a speech from the heart and have thought about different memories the two of you have shared together. The best way to keep it personal is to tell a funny story between the bride and groom or sometime with you two.

What you do not want to do is embarrass the bride or groom too much. It is a fun event and can be a good time to poke fun or tell a light-hearted embarrassing story. But you do not want to ruin a perfectly good night just because of a joke or story you tell.

After you have finished writing the speech, make sure you take the time to practice prior to the wedding. This can help you with the tone while perfecting the timing of the speech. Timing is everything when it comes to telling a joke or sharing a funny story. The more you practice the easier it will be to present at the wedding itself.

The last thing to keep in mind with your funny wedding speech is to have fun with it. It is a joyous occasion and everyone is there to celebrate the love two people share. It can be nerve-racking, but once you hear the first laugh from the crowd the rest of the speech will be smooth sailing.
