Father Of The Groom Speech Example And Sample
Good evening and thank you for coming to celebrate the love
between my son Patrick and Alexis. The groom and bride made me a deal I
couldn't refuse because they know I have a sweet tooth.
They said, '' Dad, if you can make us proud with your
speech, then we will get you a very big cake. So, they gave me this giant toy
cake. They always keep their promise so I intend to make speech a little
heartfelt, funny, and witty at the same time. For those of you who don't know
me, I am Mike Snr and I am the proud dad of Mike Jnr. We have completely
opposite personalities but we bond like glue. I am the oldest, wisest, hairiest
old man with bald head.
But, my only son is the youngest, funniest, good looking
young man with an amazing bride. I am the loquacious guy in the family so when
the happy couple asked me to say a few words, I completely froze in my tracks.
So, I got back to them and said how short is too short for you guys?
You know the last time, they asked me to do a small talk, I
ended up speaking for 15 minutes and people didn't want me to stop. So to have
been asked to speak for only 5 minutes is kind of suffocating for this old
talking parrot. But, since there's a cake prize at stake, I promise to keep it
short so I don't lose out. Mike Jnr grew up in a strict household so he wasn't
exposed to a lot of stuff.
I remember when he was barely three years old, his mom was
pregnant and he came around and said: ''Dad, why does mom have a big tummy? Did
you fill her up with way the way you pump air into my balloons? '' I didn't
want to get into any awkward conversation since he was a very little boy. So, I
just said, I would tell you about when you are celebrating your birthday next
year.
He smiled and ran out of the room and went to his mom and
said, Dad has promised to let me know why you have such a big tummy when it's
my birthday. Needless to say, he never asked about it when his birthday
arrived. I felt so glad it never happened because I was just wondering how best
to tell him all that happened. Now, he's grown into a very curious, caring man
who has all the right answer to that tormenting question.
My wife Samantha and I couldn't be more proud that he's
found Alexis to love and cherish forever. Alexis is kind, beautiful, a giver, a
hard worker and very polite. What more could we ask for? As you begin this new
chapter together, my wish for you is to always celebrate love, hope, and joy.
Count your blessings each day, and let your love for each other guide you
through life's challenges and triumphs. Cheers to love, joy, and a lifetime of
happiness! Congratulations!
Did that make you laugh? I couldn't help but chuckle when I
read that curious account from Mike Jnr's childhood.
An Outline For Your Funny Father Of The Groom Speech And
Toast
You might be wondering how that speech was written. It is
not as hard as you think. You can make things a lot easier by first creating an
outline and structure for your wedding speech. Here's one I carved from the
above example. · Greet and acknowledge the guests, family and friends ·
Thank the guests for coming · Talk about yourself and your
relationship with the bride and groom · Share a few funny memories · Talk about
the beautiful bride ·
Share some pearls of marital advice · End with your toast
Once you have that structure in place, you can fill in the blanks with memories
and anecdotes about your son and his bride.
Ok, now, I want to flesh that outline out with personal
stories and anecdotes and examples so you can get an idea about it is done.
Let's dive right in.

Thank And Acknowledge Everyone And Greet The Guests, Family And Friends
Here's an example:
Good evening and thank you for coming to
celebrate the love That's not hard to do right?
Just a heartfelt thank you note will go a long way in
showing your appreciation.
You may give a shout out to folks like his grandparents, his
mom, and other personalities who have had a big influence on his life. What are
their names and what words of gratitude do you have for them? Start by writing
down who you want to thank and why. ·
Talk About Yourself And Your Relationship With The Bride And Groom
For this part of the speech, you have to mention who you are and your
relationship with the bride and groom.
Here's another example:
For those of you who don't know me, I am Mike Snr and I am
the proud dad of Mike Jnr. We have completely opposite personalities but we
bond like glue. I am the oldest, wisest, hairiest old man with bald head Is
there a nickname by which you prefer to be addressed?
You can start with
that and tell a little story about it. An example would be: I am Caleb a.k.a
Mr. Cucumber. There's a little story about that and I will tell you more about
that very soon.
That introductory remark doesn't always have to sound cliché
like: I am the proud dad of the groom. Simply throw out some ideas there and
you will make everyone happy. ·
Share A Few Funny Memories I am sure you have countless stories
about your son.
The key is to jot down as many details as possible and
select your favorite anecdote. The stories you select should be entertaining,
engaging, and relatable to the wedding audience.
If you don't have a fantastic memory, just ask her mom or
scan through your old family photos and those memories will come flooding back.
Then, pick one or two you would like to share with your guests.
