I was able to put together a speech on the plane and after the wedding I cannot tell you how many people came up to me and told me that my speech was the best part of the wedding. The groom cried with emotion during my speech and he didn't even cry during the ceremony!

"I basically learned everything I needed to know from your site."
Dan, FYI..........Just wanted to give you a quick heads up as to how my speech went.... I ordered your program the night before the wedding.
For starters I don't like to grab attention, I am shy and for the most part...self conscious..... especially when I first meet people, I once had to give a speech in grade school and got up to the mic and couldn't speak a word and not to mention 12 years ago I was a Best man and basically embarrassed myself... when the DJ had me step down to the floor to give the speech.... I basically grabbed the mic and before everyone was turned around and listening............. I said here's to Joe and Cindy .. raised my glass and handed the mic back and went to my seat........lol and then on top of it... just minutes later a psychologist that was in the audience comes up and hands me his business card and said to call him sometime....lol (no joke there)
People were left with what did he say etc.. etc... it was down right embarrassing and still to this day I'm embarrassed about it.
So basically, 12 years later I was again asked to be Best Man, again misery set in and memories of my last two speeches haunted me.... (If you want to call them speeches)
Now don't ask me why I waited until the evening after the wedding rehearsal to start preparing(especially with my history) but that's basically what I did... I ordered your program the night before the wedding, I read everything and then slept on it... got up in the morning and prepared it... took me 2 hrs.
I basically learned everything I needed to know from your site, I used cue cards .. 4 of them to be exact.. If I would have needed 6 or 8 I would have.... I learned several things from your site that would take me too long to list and besides you know what's on there... so why re-write it.... But basically I knew from your site how long the speech should be, so I had a time line to work with..... After reading everything...... I learned to basically have a opener line, a body and a toast.
I will provide you with the actual speech below to show you what I did, I was told it went excellent, I got three laughs but I have to say after the first laugh I knew I was on easy street for the most part.... The first laugh was so key for me.
On the first cue card which I numbered in the upper right hand corner (in red pen by the way) I knew by casing the room which you suggested and then by talking to the DJ real quick.. I knew where I would be giving the speech and this time it was at the head table.. which was great and way better then being asked down to the dance floor... which I would suggest you put on the site that people should get to the DJ prior and ask or request that they can give the speech at the table verses being in the center of the floor.. this alone is huge in my opinion.
So basically here is the speech per cue card............. in my writing in big bold black letters and in a format that I could read under pressure even if I had a heckler in the audience...lol
Here we go .... I was announced........... mic was handed to me and people were clapping...............
I start.............
Card #1. On behalf of the bride & groom.
I want to thank everyone here for sharing in this special day.
When Mike first told me he was gonna ask Susan to marry him (slight pause)
The first thing out of my mouth was ---- what about our permanent T-time on Sunday morning?
:Laughter: Thank God!!
Card#2. But seriously -- When I first met Susan I liked her right away -- she was easy to talk to and down to earth.
I knew she was good people.
I knew Mike had a keeper, I just didn't think it would take him 7 years to ask her to marry him.
:Laughter:
Card#3. Mike -- I want you to know that I have been honored in serving you as best man.
You married someone very beautiful & special --- and I have no doubt
That the two of you will have a lifetime of loving memories.
Card #4. Having said that ... It gives me great pleasure (slight pause) & "relief" (:laughter:) to invite each of you to stand. (slight pause)
Raise your glasses with me and offer the new Mr & Mrs. Mike Moran
A toast of congratulations --- (slight pause)
Mike & Susan
Here's to a new beginning -- A life of happiness, health, adventure & love.
SALUTE!!!!! and Go Bears!!!
Now I know it could have been longer and I had several options on what to say but....... After reading your program I basically knew what I could get away with.... I read your tips and example speeches.......... My Speech covered most of the bases and rules, Most attending knew I am not a professional speaker and many would not want to have been in my shoes, just knowing this is a great tension reliever, So basically I looked at all the possibilities and did a mini of what a great long speech would be like and I got away with it, I was told by many that night how good it was.
Now the best part is this........"You are only as good as your last speech" correct? lol well my last speech was good if not great and the two bad ones are truly in my past which is such a beautiful thing......... and in a sick kind of way I am looking forward to the pressure of having to give another speech somewhere some time in the future.
So Dan.... that's it .......that's my story, your Program helped me 100% and I could not have done it with out your program.
Only Thing I would suggest you add to the site is that people when they get to the wedding hall and people are mingling and drinking before everyone sits down... is to dart off to the bathroom a few times and go in a stall and read their cards to them selves, I first read them out loud in my car when I was alone on my way to the church and then 3 times at the Hall in the bathroom stall just to double check and get more comfortable with it.
Anyhoo... Thank You much for coming out with this program.. I hope you make millions with it.
PS I googled the heck out of wedding speeches and your's was the best looking one and the price was WELL worth the end result, best $20 bucks I have ever spent.
I am a happy man to have that behind me but to have it behind me after doing it well is like a drug.
My Best to you.
