Groom’s Speech Guideline

The idea of the Groom’s speech is to ensure that he thanks all the necessary people on behalf of the couple.

A good tip, that always works is to address the guests on behalf of you and “your wife” it is bound to get a reaction…..

Here is who you would need to thank, use your discretion and omit where necessary – there is nothing worse than a long, boring speech by the groom.

1. Start off by thanking the venue and services i.e. caterers, marriage officer, singers etc.
2. Thank the people that have travelled distances to be at your wedding
3. Thank the retinue and your best man
4. The bride’s family with special attention to the parents, and the father-of-the-bride for his speech
5. Thank your family with special attention to your parents
6. Lastly, but most importantly, you address your wife – and this needs to be special, it makes the guests feel that it was worth the wait!!!
