Wedding Speech Ninety Nine

How many times have you been to a wedding when the maid of honor’s speech is little more than a drunken string of broken clichés and half-baked sentiments? Here are three tips for how to give the best maid of honor speeches. First off, focus on the bride - not pointless stories about the maid of honor. People don’t care about the wedding party. Talk about the bride! Next, keep it short and thoughtful - not long and rambling. Women who know how to give good maid of honor speeches don’t shoot from the hip; rather, they prepare from the heart. Lastly, compliment the bride’s parents - not the bride’s friends. Mom and Dad have foot the bill, and they deserve a little honor. I mean you can complement the bride’s friends in your maid of honor speech but only after the bride’s parents.
