A sample wedding speech can be very useful, particularly if you find public speaking stressful and nerve wrecking, like I do. But there's even more you need to consider than just writing your speech, depending on what your role is in the wedding.
The following are some basics of what is expected, but for more detail on a range of other things that you need to think about, a good sample wedding speech product is recommended.
Order of Wedding Speeches
Traditionally, the father of the bride speech is first, followed by the groom's father, the groom and then the best man speech. Messages or telegrams are also read out by the groomsmen and best man.
These days, however, tradition is not always followed. Often, both parents of the bride and groom, the bride herself and the maid of honor will also give a speech. So really, anything goes.
