Wedding Speech - Original Writing

Good evening everyone. Hope you are all having a great time. I will try to keep this brief as I am eagerly anticipating that part of the night when the best man humiliates the groom.

(Stand up, mobile phone in hand)” Well thank you vicar it is a bit inconvenient at the moment I am just about to start the speeches."

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - I would like to start by thanking Frank on behalf of the bridesmaids for his kind comments and echo the fact that they look wonderful and performed their role fantastically well, despite the inevitable and healthy rivalry that can sometimes occur. In fact, just before the service I overheard a furious sisterly argument about who was going to be first to dance with the best man. Understandable, I thought - until I got closer and heard them saying, 'You!', 'no, you!'

I'm so excited for you! It's your birthday! Yay! I wanted to surprise you a box of presents to put a big smile on your face and to show my appreciation for you and all you do. You're a terrific friend and a constant source of encouragement-not only to me-but to everyone you know! You bring so much joy to others, and you know how to make people smile and laugh. When you throw a party, you seek to make sure the needs of everyone are met and you'll plan little details to make to make sure everyone's having a good time. From creating your own made up game on New Year's Eve, to making Papa Murphy's pizza and some healthy snacks to go along with it, you put the cherry on top of the cake called hospitality. I've seen you grow so

YAY, finally it’s my turn to tell you a little about myself. Well for starters what I can I say I’m a very handsome fellow that has a face that can easily steal your heart. So don’t be surprised if after visiting with me if you aren’t ready to fill out adoption papers. I’m a very people friendly gentleman that loves everyone that I meet. In fact, when you walk through the kennels I’ll be setting next to the door trying to push myself up against it as much as I can, so I can hopefully get you to stop and give me some of that good ole affection. If you take it even one step further and leash me up and take me outside, I’ll be one happy boy, because I get go outside and run around, and you get to see my goofball personality come out. I’m pretty

So I want to start this off by saying I love you and this is your day. Regardless whatever you want to do is your call.

My mother’s harsh voice rang through the halls. She did this every night, called me down without ever warning me when. Anita, our maid couldn’t do this either. She was… different. Unlike my family. Anita has silky, dark brown skin and midnight black hair. She sleeps in the guest bedroom With only a small twin bed, and a bedside lamp on a small nightstand. She also has a small closet for her tiny assortment of clothing. My dad explained to my sisters and I, that she is a disgrace to us. She works with little pay for my family of six. There was something about her. Something that we shouldn’t hate her for, but I couldn’t recognize it.

I’ve always wished for a happily ever after. A man I love, amazing honeymoon and to live a happy life style. That did not happen to me, I got a man that I hate. I spent a week in court and my life will be sent in prison. But don’t forget that I will have a very depressing life. All of this was caused of two things a annoying mother and a flower.

It was 26th January 2001, a holiday we call Republic Day in India. I woke up with excitement looking forward to the celebrations ahead. My parents and grandparents had left early in the morning to prepare for the celebrations. I rushed to the bathroom to take a shower. It was at that moment when I first felt the tremors. I wasn’t sure what had happened, and continued showering. As I felt more tremors, I became more and more nervous. I dried off, quickly dressed, and rushed to go outside, but the door to my house wouldn’t open. I walked out through the back door and saw the most horrifying view. My village had experienced an earthquake of magnitude 7.7 which caused massive destruction. People were bleeding, crying, and rushing to help others. I was awestruck. I went around trying to find my parents, but to no avail. I came back to my home and waited for them in fear.

We are so proud of all our children and felt blessed to witness our oldest receive her diploma from nursing school on beautiful May afternoon. My life felt pretty rewarding and exceptionally happy as I celebrated another boastful accomplishment from one of our four amazing kids. Three weeks later that perfect life seemed to slip through my fingers with a call at three in the morning. The words, of your child is on a life flight and you need to get to here now made my heart exploded. Twelve hours away our youngest child was in a fight for his life and unbeknown to me this was just the beginning. The next twelve months produced so many twists and turns that forced me to change my direction in life. I could have never known that something so tragic could flip into a life changing experience that set me on a path to true happiness and fulfillment.
