Father Of The Bride Wedding Speeches – my 9 Tips

November 2nd, 2009 Stephanie No comments

1) What Would Be The Most Memorable Way To Write Wedding Father Speeches?
How would one approach the father of the bride wedding speech so as to ensure the best possible speech?

People often overlook the importance of a good intro to any speech. I firmly believe that if you can hit a home run with your intro then you are halfway to speech stardom. Remember that the day is not about you and do not try to get out of the limelight as fast as you can.

Don’t just say nice things about the bride. Include some examples of the great things she accomplished and the contribution she made to the family. In the whole process try to convey to the guests why she would be an awesome wife and mother. A little humor thrown in can also spice things up but don’t try to start a career as a comic. And lastly practice,practice, practice!It is probably the last chance you will have to praise you daughter in public and it might even strengthen your relationship if done well.

3) What Should I Say At My Wedding Speech To My Brides Father?
He has never really been a part of her life & never bothers with her which is why i dont like him.
I dont want to come across as rude or in any way upset her .Really what should i say in my speech as wev nothing to thank him for.

Ok well that is not a time to appear bitter so just say something short and sweet. Hows this; I would like to thank -state his name- for his beautiful daughter and promise to take good care of her’ ( That will have a double meaning only to you since you know that YOU will do better than he did) It should be a very happy occasion leaving any animosity or problems in the past behind. PLUS you dont know the entire story-was their a divorce? Thats often why guys are not a part of her life since the moms dont let them and criticize them but I better butt out since I dont know the details. Congratulations and let any upsetting thoughts go for the day and just be happy

4) Does Anyone Have Any Sensible Suggestions Or Alternatives To The Formal Wedding Speeches?
I’m after a ‘party’ rather than a wedding reception ‘do’ to celebrate my marriage and don’t particularly fancy the idea of the best-man, father-of-the-bride etc speeches. Any suggestions?

Its your wedding – have what you want – or don’t want.

You don’t have to follow any traditions.

Just don’t have the speeches if you don’t want them.

5) My Dad Is Not Going To Be At Our Wedding Reception – Who Should I Ask To Do The “father Of The Bride Speech”??
My dad is going to be at the ceremony and walk me down the isle, but he has a thing about crowds and does not want to go to the reception. Any ideas on who should be next in line? Or should we miss this speech all together??

Is there another special person in your life that could take this place???

My real father didn’t walk me down the asile, and was not at my wedding, the hero in my life is my step dad. I would not have had my real dad do this for me even if he wanted too.

Think of someone who is special to you, and ask them.

6) Where Can I Find Wedding Speeches?
Where can I find father of the bride speeches

In the father of the bride’s heart. Nothing like a genuine, personal speech that comes from yourself.

7) What Is The Order Of Speeches At A Wedding Reception?
My sister is getting married in September and I’m the maid of honour. I’m just wondering who does speeches at the wedding (like the father of the bride, groom etc), and what is the order?

Formally: Father of the bride, Bridegroom, Best Man.

8) Who Has To Make A Speech At A Wedding? Is It Just The Groom, The Best Man And The Father Of The Bride?
I am the brides mother and I wanted to say a few words. would that be in order?

Well seen as me father is in the pub , maybe you should mother , but don’t you dare mention Tarquin or our Petronella , or Aunty Cissy , or how much money it’s cost you ……xxxx

9) Do You Know A Website For Mother Of The Bride Speeches?
I asked another time for father of the bride speeches but husband said he doesn’t want to stand in front of a huge crowd and say something. I feel I should say something at my daughters wedding and yes I think I am going to be extremely nervous so I want something simple and to the point.

Try something from here: http://www.freeweddingspeech.com/?id_category=47

It’s okay to write it down… and change it around to suit you and your daughter the best.

Congratulations :)

2) Wedding Speeches From The Bride And Groom?
Me and my husband-to-be, are both not confident about speaking in front of a large amount of people. We are thinking about doing a joint speech, how would you feel if you were at a wedding at the bride and groom both stood up and picthed a speech?

Also, any ideas where you can read old speeches for a bit of a template.

go ahead>>>>>>>>

3) Have You Ever Been To A Wedding Where The Bride And Groom Did Not Make A Speech?
you know, to thank people, or thanking their parents, or whatever. I know other people are supposed to speak, but shouldn’t the bride/groom? thanks

we didn’t make a speech at our wedding, but we did walk around and thank everyone individually.

4) In The Grooms Wedding Speech Does He Just Compliment The Bride Or Does He Raise A Toast To Her ?


There aren’t any hard and fast rules. In your groom speech a groom can raise a toast to his bride, and why not? Though, not every groom will do that and that’s a very good reason why a groom should consider toasting his bride. In fact, it’s an excellent idea.

5) Wedding Speech?
Im stuck for ideas & jokes to make at a speech for a wedding.
Both Groom and Bride are in their 70’s.
Any SENSIBLE ideas

Inform them that their life is now about sharing.
Pass the teeth down, its my turn with the steak

6) Who Has To Make A Speech At A Wedding? Is It Just The Groom, The Best Man And The Father Of The Bride?
I am the brides mother and I wanted to say a few words. would that be in order?

Well seen as me father is in the pub , maybe you should mother , but don’t you dare mention Tarquin or our Petronella , or Aunty Cissy , or how much money it’s cost you ……xxxx

7) Need Help With Speech Class Wedding Toast?
I need a lot of help with a wedding toast to a bride and groom for speech class. Im not a poet guy or a deep guy in any way and cant seem to come up with anything, and this has to be 2 minutes long!

The speech should basically wish the person luck on their future, words of wisdom, etc.. Things along those lines. It is something that should come from the heart. Don’t stress yourself over it.

7) Bride/Groom Speech Advice?
I am gettin married this Saturday coming up and my fiance and I are struggling with our speech. We want to keep it short and sweet which sounds easy but here is the problem. My parents have literally paid for EVERYTHING. His parents have not contributed a dime. My fiance and I even had to pay for their wedding attire. We know that times are tough for them right now and we understand why they didn’t. So how do you right a speech to thank my parents and make a mention of them but not make them feel like crap because they didn’t contribute to our wedding?? All I can think of is Thanks mom and Dad for helping us to make this day a special as it is and to My new husbands parents thanks for raising a great son and accepting me into the family. It just doesn’t sound right..Please help.

Begin your speech with, “We would like to thank all of our friends and family for sharing this special day with us”. If I were you I wouldn’t make it known to everyone who paid for what. Emotional and loving support is priceless. Congrats and Best of Luck.
