Father Of The Bride Speech: How To Write A Great Father of The Bride Wedding Toast For Your Daughter and Son-in-Law
Father of the Bride Speech: An Easy-To-Follow Approach To Writing A Great Speech Even If You Have Little Time To Spare
Many fathers of brides usually ask for help when they have a few days to their daughter's wedding ceremony.
Our research indicates that they do that at the last moment because they think that writing a great father of the bride speech doesn’t involve much time and effort.
Others too try to do it in their own way but get stuck when their ideas don’t follow in chronological order or they don't really like what they have written.
There are also some who are very busy and think they can wing it. Sometimes, we all become busy even in days leading to our daughters’ big day. It could be that you are engaged in one thing or the other and you don’t really have much time to put something together.
When you leave things till the last moment, the quality of your speech can be compromised and things might not go as planned.
Whatever the case might be, you shouldn't wing it unless you are a very talented speaker or you have a good story inside your mind.
Nevertheless, you can’t take your father of the bride's speech for granted if you really want to make your daughter and family proud. That’s why I have come up with this to help you write something you can be proud of even if you are as busy as a bee or you don't have the right words!
Here’s how to write your speech or toast quickly and easily.
You can start writing any part of the speech you find fairly easy.
Let’s say you have only 30 minutes to work out things each day right? Then this easy –to- follow piece can be your writing timetable. Tweak it to suit your own unique case if you so desire.
Study the chart below carefully as it is going to be like our compass for the remainder of the article.
Monday-- 30 minutes-- The toast
Tuesday-- 20 minutes-- The introduction
Wednesday-- 20 minutes-- Advice
Thursday-- 10 minutes-- Her childhood
Friday 30-- minutes-- Her Teenage Years, your wishes for them
Saturday-- 30 minutes-- Her achievements, work
ethics, something about the groom
Sunday-- 1 hour --Put all the parts together
Let me use this scenario to explain things. Let’s take Monday as an example.
The 30 minutes allotted to writing your toast on that day is all you have to spend on your message on that particular day. The purpose of this is three-fold. One, it helps you a lot if you are always on the go and you have less time to complete your speech.
Second, it takes out the stress of trying to do everything at once.
Third, it’s a great way of overcoming writer’s block since you won’t have to worry much about writing a speech all at once.
Sometimes, the ''old-fashioned approach'' of putting together your thoughts at a go can be very problematic and time-wasting if you don't have a way with words.
But by starting with any part of a speech you find convenient, you’ll not only save time but have ample time to write something from your heart. The above timetable is meant to serve as a guide. You can change it to suit you.
What To Do If You Still Can’t Get Ideas To Write
First, look at the introduction of any well-written speech and make some slight changes to it.
Make the body of the sample yours by changing a few words here and there. Replace the trait of the bride in that sample speech with your daughter’s. Then, you do the same for the groom.
Finally, make some changes to the toast too. Finally, look it over your speech one more time to correct some mistakes. However, make sure you are able to write your own unique speech using the examples you find.
How To Know If Your Speech Will Achieve Its Intended Purpose
Please keep your speech away in a safe spot for a day or two or a few hours depending on the time left for your wedding speech. After this time has passed, get back to it, and look over it and you will discover errors that slipped through the cracks when you first wrote it.
You can also read it out loud and see how it flows. But you might want to print it out if you’re really pressed for time or simply let your spouse look it over.
The First Draft Is Important
All great writing doesn’t look good the first time it’s written so don’t let that put a damper on things. You have to keep reviewing it till it is free from poor punctuation, spelling, and the like as it can change the meaning and tone of your speech.
Don’t forget to take off portions you think are not that relevant to your entire speech. Cut those parts that don’t add to the overall tone of your speech and don’t forget to tighten up loose sentences.
Vary your sentences to prevent them from becoming monotonous. For instance, beginning every sentence with the pronoun ''I'' in all of your paragraphs will make your speech lack the shine it deserves.
Keep It In A Secured Location
Once you assessed the speech, you need to keep it in a convenient place so you don’t misplace it. There’s nothing more frustrating than losing a speech you have poured your whole heart and mind into.
That can stress you out and affect your performance in the long run. So, keep it in a safe place so you can get it anytime you want.
