    I was SO worried about our best man’s speech because he considered himself something of a comedian. But it was such a sweet speech that I remember it 32 years later:
    “Merv has been my best friend and like a brother to me for 15 years now. I only met Barb a few years ago, but I feel like we’ve been friends for just as long as Merv and I. They’re perfect together. And it makes my heart so happy to know that these two beautiful hearts have found each other. Congratulations, and may your love last forever. To the wonderful couple!”
    Now THAT’S a wedding speech.

    My friend got married to a man double her age. Everyone was kind of shocked when we first found out about him because my friend told us she was a lesbian. So the maid of honour at her wedding stood for her speech saying "the bride clearly is very confused about everything in her life, but at least she has a sugar daddy to pay for her pride festivals now. Seriously, have you seen him? He is the same age as my dad"
    I cried laughing.

    My best friend from school got married, I wasn't apart of the bridal party but I did attend. The Best Man went up and gave his speech first. His speech was very well thought out and very touching. The MC for the evening then asked if anyone would like to say anything for the bride. None of her bride's maids or the maid of honor got up to speak. I couldn't let my girl down so even though I had NOTHING prepared and was PETRIFIED of public speaking... I wung it and the bride and I cried tears of joy and love. The speech was all over the place but she appreciated it and that's all that matters!

    I went to a wedding where one of the bride's friends "forced her way" into becoming a maid of honor. The bride already had a maid of honor but let this girl be one to avoid conflict so she had two maids of honor. I have the VIDEO of this same so-called friend proceeded to give an entire maid of honor speech talking about how amazing she was as a friend, admitted she forced her way into being a maid of honor (that's why I put it in quotations because those were her own exact words), and she talked pure shit about the groom the entire time and embarrassed him. Then the groom's brother gave warm, heartfelt speech about his brother that everyone loved and Miss 2nd place maid of honor turned to my friend and said "ok, don't tell me his speech was better than mine!! Mine was WAAAY better!" I kind of want to post it now.

      I think some inside jokes are okay, and some are not.
      Like you can't say things about sex, cheating, or serious things like that. And you can't say something that no one else understands just you and the bride.
      But you can say like "that time, when you spilled drink all over yourself and spent the whole party in a dirty dress..." Or "that time when I fell from the stairs and you laughted so hard you peed yourself a little..."
      Bc it's awkward, everyone will laugh, but no one is going to care about it and judge the bride or something.

So what if he marries someone that had a child from a previous relationship? It's non of her business, period! Some women need to let go and understand that you don't own your child, you can't tell them what to do with their own life as an adult. Go find a hobby, go volunteer for a food bank or homeless shelter, go read a dang book or go read to the blind but stop micromanaging your grown child's life and decisions. It's that easy SMH

This is so awkward. But the universe was on our side and as we stood there with our big fake smiles trying to put on a convincing show, my earring got seriously snagged in the bridesmaid's hair! We had to do this ridiculous sideways shuffle walk in our hard to walk normally in dresses and instead of a video and horror stories of our great moment of complete failure - there are awesome photos of us arm in arm laughing our asses off trying to deal with this snagged earring situation. Win! 🤣🤣🤣

    I was told I was giving the maid of honor speech 10 minutes before I was supposed to give it at my older sister’s wedding. I didn’t know I was the maid of honor before that, so she is very lucky I didn’t crack under pressure and blurt out her embarrassing past
    Fat lie, I totally blurted her embarrassing past, but it was cute so I’ve got no regrets. Basically she had a crush on her now husband ever since the fourth grade when she saw him at the bus stop. He didn’t know her at all until high school but he had quite the effect on parts of her life.
    I didn’t blab about him being why she can’t tolerate knock off brands though, so that was something. They were on the bus one day (middle school) and he was talking to his friends about something, and he talked about how dumb knock off shoes were or something (a stupid teenage boy comment), and she was wearing high top air walks that day (knock off converse). She ended up tucking her feet under the bus seat and never wore those shoes again.
    They were cute shoes too, I wore them until they broke when I grew into them

We did all our speeches at the rehearsal dinner, it was really nice because it was a much more personal and intimate experience. 10 out of 10, would recommend doing it that way.

I’ve been a maid of honor and a matron of honor, both times I was pregnant but the first time we found out that next day, so luckily I was sober as well. I would panic more if I was drinking I think 😅😂 I’d be worried someone would think I was drunk then when I stuttered. I have seen some horrible speeches though and really embarrassing to the bride and groom. I can’t imagine doing that to someone I cared about especially with their families and often coworkers there! I don’t know how other people can be like that, like a funny story about the couple or one of them or how they told you about each other, etc is fine but nothing intimate or humiliating. A favorite memory of them together is a good place to go to end the speech before well wishes and you’re so talented and creative to come up with a poem especially for a couple! You’re quite brave to read it aloud as well. Giving them a copy as well was a very sweet gift as well. They are lucky to have had you as maid of honor! 💓

    I went with my friend to her brothers wedding since I was pretty close with the family. The best man is a complete moron and being true to his idiocy he was of course drunk before giving his best man speech. Despite people trying to tell him he shouldn’t get up on stage he did anyway with another drink in his hand. He told everyone how they met and became friends and being the best of friends they always had each other’s backs. We all smiled and thought his speech was over but nope, we were wrong. He finished up by saying, “we’ve always had each other’s backs, even when we both got super drunk on our ski trip last year and slept with those girls a bunch of times.” We we’re all in a stunned silence until the bride burst into tears and the best man’s wife stood up and said she wanted a divorce. It turned into a shit show and didn’t end well at all. My friends brother tried apologizing but didn’t help as the bride left him and filed an annulment and her parents sued him for the cost of the wedding. Best man and his wife got divorced and he’s paying a ton in child support. Friends brother is no longer friends with best man and he was so depressed he hardly left his room for a while.

      It is very nerve racking if you take it seriously or have any social anxiety. Key is to make it under 5 minutes if you can. Write it down and have several copies in different places like purse, bag, and car. Practice speech in front of mirror several times! Mention how they told you about each other, a good memory of them together and say something nice about each then wish them well in their marriage. And maid of honor also has a ton of other responsibilities during and prior to the wedding. But it is a huge help to the bride and worth the stress to see your friend or family member so happy!

    Definitely gotta keep the drinking to a minimum before the speeches! I gave a speech at a wedding this summer. When the bride asked me to do it, I asked her how long were the speeches going to be. She said 5-10 minutes each. There were going to be four or five, with me going last because she thinks I'm a pretty ok writer and that I'll make folks laugh as well as wrapping it up in a reasonable amount of time because they planned to cut the cake right after. I even wrote in a joke about how she picked me last because she knows I'll want to eat cake so I'll make it quick with the shortest speech. I did some research to find things to do and things to avoid. I wrote and rewrote, worked in a few quotes. Began the speech with a brief bit about who I was and how the bride and I had been friends since we were teenagers. Definitely avoided inside jokes that nobody but the bride would get. Made much about how much we all liked her new husband, which we do. I made a section addressed to her and a section addressed to her husband. I added in a call and return blessing for the couple at the end, including a joke about how I knew I could count on a good Catholic family to get into a call and return. I read it out loud and timed it until I had to under 5 minutes, thinking I'd be doing the shortest speech. By the time I was done, I was quite proud of what I had written. Then the wedding day arrived. The mother of the bride gets up and her whole speech was like 30 seconds. The best man gets up and his whole speech is like 45 seconds. The maid of honor gets up and I think, this will save me because she's a talker. Her whole speech was like 85 seconds. Then it was my turn with my long, rambling speech last clocked at 4 minutes 40 seconds, with pauses for laughs because I'm optimistic. It ended up going well I think, but I was dying inside the entire time in embarrassment at how that 4 minutes plus felt like an eternity LOL

    One important rule to remember when writing the speech is that there might be children present so you don’t want to say anything that might upset the parents of those children when they hear it. Even if there’s no kids at the wedding, you should write/make your speech as if they were. This way even if there’s a little bit of roasting it’s all family friendly and not truly embarrassing.

    Just to touch on the inside jokes thing, I had a similar experience at an 8 hour long bridal shower. I was a bridesmaid and the bride’s twin sisters were her matrons of honor. No exaggeration, they compiled a 45min long video with every single family member on BOTH sides of the bride and groom telling stories and inside jokes. The twins demanded no one talk and watch the entire thing in silence. When other family members showed up to the party an hour later, we had to watch the 45min video a second time, again in total silence. When the groom and groomsmen showed up later in the day, you guessed it, we were forced to watch it a 3rd time in utter silence. If anyone attempted to speak or get up to go to the bathroom, the twins would start throwing attitude for interrupting what they thought was their masterpiece.
    I’m so glad the bride enjoyed the video but, for the rest of us who had to watch complete strangers telling random stories 3 times for the better part of an hour, it was borderline torture.

    I got married to my husband 16yrs ago. We didn’t spend long planning the wedding. We got engaged in November and then tied the knot the following March. I loved planning my wedding, I had friends who thought I was crazy and rushing into it because I was only 21yrs old and just about to graduate from university. One of my roommates didn’t speak to me for a while because she was so annoyed that I was in love and knew I wanted to get married. She eventually got over it and celebrated with me at my bachelorette party. I got married and everything went perfectly with no dramas all day. I suffer with anxiety but my wedding day was so wonderful I wasn’t nervous at all, just excited to be marrying a man who I knew would love me for years to come. 16yrs later, two kids, 3 dogs and we’ve lived in 4 different states (he’s a retired Marine!) we are still very much in love and happy. My friend who shunned me has already been divorced 🤷🏻‍♀️
    I watch these bridezilla videos and it just baffles me. So much extra energy goes into being a bitch towards other people. I don’t have the drive to be that petty at all. I can’t be arsed with it! I just wanted my day to be special and one that everyone would remember. My family and friends still talk about how my wedding was so lovely. I’d rather not be remembered for being the bride who had a sour face and snapped at everyone all day!

    I’m terrified I’m going to see my friend’s wedding. Well, my friend was a different person when she was younger, and her MOH was so drunk. The MOH talked about their wild days and the bride’s old “conquests.” She went on forever. My friend (bride) was crying and the groom was holding her. I was giving a death glare to the DJ and the best man. I hope all recordings were destroyed. So glad this happened in the mid-2000’s.

    In 2022 I was at a wedding for this young couple. It was at our City Hall, followed by a reception in a buffet-style restaurant. I guess their parents rented the "grand hall" room. Oh, and this all happened on a Thursday night.
    Turns out, the bride was a total bridezilla, yelling at everyone and sporting a "many, many rolls" midsection, making it hard to tell if she was actually pregnant (which she was, BTW, and the baby arrived five months later).
    The bride and her bestie, the maid of honor, were drinking and eating like they were on a mission, and by the time the maid of honor speech rolled around, everyone was shocked. She basically admitted to years of "experimentation" with the bride, then proceeded to trash the groom, saying he couldn't satisfy her bestie and that the wedding was a sham. The bride and groom were mortified and embarrassed- they stormed out in different exits. The parents called the rest of the reception off, and everyone was left wondering, "What the heck just happened?" This was all during the DJ was setting up.
    Two years later, the marriage went kaput, the bride and maid of honor became a couple, the groom was battling for custody. The maid of honor was in jail for bad checks, the bride was on probation. They eventually broke up. The groom is no better- he is a meth head and is constantly in and out of jail for theft. The whole thing was a giant, messy train wreck. But as funny as it is- the kid suffers- that's the only thing that makes this whole situation sad.

    I once had to break into a bridesmaid family house (been one 7 times) to get out a speech/purse (that belonged to the MOH). The only window open was a bathroom window. Over the toilet. I was the only one small enough to get in through the window. I told people the tip end of my bridesmaid dress was wet from a puddle…not the stupid toilet! It was awful.

I don't understand going to a wedding and getting sloppy.

    I was at a wedding where the maid of honor threatened the groom in her speech (that whole "If you ever hurt her..." thing). It was a little awkward, but then like two more of the bride's cousins stood up to also threaten the groom. Then one of the groom's cousins came to his defense by similarly threatening the bride.
    The groom was a real sweetheart/pushover, so the threats were strange to begin with. The whole thing was SO awkward.

      It was okay, but I think the buildup of saying she promised she wouldn't say it made it worse, because it raises expectations. And the large pause and side hug after was awkward; she should have just continued with the speech. So it was a so-so joke with a terrible execution that ruined its potential.

      My 2 best friends and I are extremely close. One of them married last year and the groom is new in our area and doesn't have much friends or family around. We dedicated our MOH speech to him to welcome him into our little squad and vowed to be there for him as well through ups and downs, to bring the bubbly whether we're celebrating her, them or him, to have his back when she gets unreasonable, to advice when he needs support etc. They both have brought up later how it was one of the highlights of their wedding. Same applies to wedding speeches as to everything else; if it's genuine and comes from the heart, it can mean the world to someone. If it's not - just skip it.

Like him talking like Bill Murray when he was doing the lawn. Even the dogs got into it: my then-H had a long-haired Doxie who pretended to hate that movie and "I'm All Right" the Psycho Killer Wiener Dog kind-of looked like the gopher, so when the song came on, I would hold him on my lap make him "dance" like the gopher. Not inhumane-l/t animal rescuer, and he would come running into the bedroom and climb on the bed when he heard the song. And he would attempt to bite me as I made him dance...yes, very silly but that is what dogs, and Caddyshack, bring out in otherwise mature adults, and the furbabies too lol.
