Funny speeches are an important part of any wedding and are a great crowd-pleaser but just remember that this doesn’t mean the whole speech has to be funny.

The Secret to Funny Speeches

One of the things I learned from all the weddings I attended and that stuck with me most was the speakers that were the most informal and interacted with their audience most were definitely the funniest. The groom should always feel for example that he is chatting with friends and not giving a presenation in work.

I applied this same formula for my wedding and it worked a treat. Oh one other thing – work the room as best you can. What do I mean by that well don’t just stare out at the same wall for the whole groom speech make eye contact with your friends and even pick one or two out and give them a mention that is always a good thing to do and it keeps the audience interested too.
