Father of Bride Speeches
My daughter got married earlier this year and as Father of the Bride I had the terrifying job of making a Father of Bride speech at her wedding.
I spent over two weeks trying to write a speech but it always sounded hopeless! I was really under pressure to come up with an impressive speech and wedding day was just few days away. Thankfully a friend suggested a website where I could find a step-by-step guide on how to make inspiring father of bride speeches.
The speech pack I received was a fantastic source of comfort and it instantly gave me a boost of confidence and lots of excellent amusing lines to use to make my own speech. It allowed me to organize my thoughts and blend them with some of the examples given.
The speech pack allowed me the freedom to focus on wedding day details and not be distracted by my father of the bride speech. The examples given were extremely helpful. Reading through the speech pack, I gradually gained confidence and realized that constructing a speech is not as hard as I thought it would be.
Aside from the struggle in constructing a speech, I also had the dread of speaking in public. The speech pack also did a lot to help me overcome my dread in public speaking. It gave me tips and guidelines on how to speak with confidence in public.
When I eventually finished my speech, I worked on the next part which is delivering my speech in public. I practiced reading it aloud in front of the mirror. I also tried reading it in front of my wife and she was pretty impressed. Practicing helped me a lot. When the huge day came, surprisingly I wasn’t nervous at all (Well ok, hardly nervous at all). In fact, I was even excited to deliver my speech.
After my speech, I received a warm applause from the crowd (or wedding guests I suppose I should call them) and more importantly I saw a joyful smile in my daughter’s face. I approached her and gave her a hug. She softly whispered, “Thanks Dad.” It was a very fulfilling moment for me. It was a simple enough speech (with a few excellent jokes thrown in) yet, it meant so much to my daughter.
I strongly recommend the speech pack to anyone who is facing the challenge of preparing a wedding day speech.
