You see, the vast majority of fathers of the groom are a lot like John.  They want to make their sons proud with their words, but they seem to be stuck in a rut because they just can’t find the right words that will highlight the depths of their eternal bonds of friendship as he starts the next chapter of his life with that special someone he can’t live without.

Don’t Let This Sabotage Your Father Of The Groom Speech…Do This Instead

 

Before we look at how to pour your whole body, heart and soul into writing an amazing father of the groom speech, I feel it’s very necessary, though, at this point to address an issue that afflicts almost every father of the groom prior to speaking about their son’s wedding day. You have to know this, so, please don’t skip it over.

 

 

How did you feel when your son phoned you and asked you to deliver a few remarks at his wedding? Did your heart miss lots of beats? Did you feel a cold shiver down your spine? Or did you experience a sudden spike in your blood pressure?

 

 

If you experience any of those symptoms or more, then you have probably made these remarks before:

  • I hate being in the public eye…
  • I don’t have a natural aptitude for string words together like a master storyteller.  Ok, I know what you are thinking.

 

 

Guess what? You are not alone. We (including world famous speakers) have all been there. When most father’s find themselves in this sticky situation, they tend to overthink it. They lose sleep about what to say and what not to say without even preparing for the task ahead.

 

 

Some, others, simply wing it thinking that they know their sons very well to come up with great stories on the fly.  Not a bad idea if you are a great storyteller.

 

Tips and ideas for father of the groom speech

 

I have some fathers’ use this clever approach and I think it’s a great way to forge a strong bond with the wedding crowd if you are a naturally talented speaker. Such presentations are not only succinct and sweet but it comes from the heart.  And that’s something I wish all fathers do.But, as you know, not so many fathers have a way with words.

 

 

This is what some fathers too and I think it’s the root cause of anxiety, tension, and nervousness. Due to family and work demands, some fathers put it off only to realize a few days before the wedding they don’t have a father of the groom speech in hand.  Thus, settling for an ordinary speech.

 

 

Your son doesn’t deserve that, right? When it comes to writing a father of the groom speech, it’s more like a marathon and not a sprint. It often takes lots of preparation, practice and self-belief to build up your confidence and self-esteem.

So, let’s take this writing exercise like running a marathon and you will achieve your writing goals.

 

 

This is what I want you to do right away if you are still feeling anxious. Amit Ray said it best that if you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, and live in the breath.

 

 

So, please take a deep breath in and out to relax your nerves.  If you take Amit’s prescription to heart, you will be taking slow but sure steps towards conquering your anxieties and also delivering a great father of the groom wedding speech with clarity and poise.

 

 

On the flip side, being nervous is actually a telltale sign of accumulated fears. Ok, I will explain. A friend of mine had an accident while learning to drive. He lost control of the wheels and almost killed himself and another person. He has since lost his zeal for car driving.

 

 

Now, most of us are like my friend.  We have had series of speaking setbacks that we have repeatedly said to ourselves and others within our circles that it’s not our strong suit.

 

Djdjdj

 

Sure, you might not have that the aptitude. I get it. But, you can dust yourself off and seize this once-in-a-life time moment to re-write your story and make your son proud with a touching father of the groom speech.

 

That takes us to the next chapter. I guess that’s your favorite part of this whole thing we are looking at. Ok, let’s look at it.

 

 

How To Quickly And Easily Write Your Father Of The Groom Speech

 

Your father of the groom speech should start and end with this: proper planning.

As the old age goes, proper planning prevents poor performance. By inference, proper planning leads to outstanding accomplishments.

 

 

From writing and reviewing hundreds of father of the groom speeches for my clients and others, I have seen most fathers make this classic mistake: they find some father of the groom speech examples and tweak it a bit to suit personal needs.

 

When I first started out as a father of the groom speech writer back in the day, I used to make that mistake too. Thank God, I am now an accomplished father of the groom speechwriter. But, it wasn’t always easy.

 

 

In the past, I didn’t know what I gotten myself into as I read several father of the groom speech templates and just modeled my speech after them. That gave me a bad rap and I run into several problems. As a result, I was labeled as a ‘’copy and paste guy. ‘’  Isn’t that sad?

 

 

Unfortunately, the vast majority of fathers seem to dabble in this unhealthy practice as well. Don’t get wrong. I am not saying that, that lazy approach is entirely wrong per se. There’s a time and place for that if you harness it properly for your good.

 

Father of the groom speech samples

 

If all you ever do is to start writing down your father of the groom speech after studying a few father of the groom speech samples, you will end up with a not so great wedding speech for your son and daughter-in-law.

 

 

Let’s get back to what we were previously discussing. Do you still remember what I told you about proper planning being the secret to your success in the last four paragraphs?

 

 

Here’s the most important part. You first have to have to lay the foundation for your father of the groom speech in your mind considering that the battles of life are won in your mind’s eye.

 

 

So, this is what I recommend you do (I do that all the time before I put any speech together) right away.

 

 

The first thing to do is to create the desired and ideal outcome of your speech in your mind.  Here are some questions to help you do just that.

  • What’s it that you want to say about your son?
  • How do you want your son to feel after listening to your words?
  • What do you want to say about the groom and bride?
  • How do you want your family and friends to feel after you are done? Teary-eyed? Happy? The best father of the groom speeches is often a harmonious blend of happy and sentimental emotions.
  • What’s my personality like? And what kind of father of groom speech (more on that later) does my personality type allow me to do?

 

 

One more hint:  This mental exercise can set you up for success if you write everything down as if you have already achieved your pre-performance goals. Now that you have a clear direction on where this is going, let’s talk about some specifics of how to get there.

 

 

We can only do that by looking at how to build momentum for your father of the groom speech. This can only be possible if we first figure out how and where to get proven ideas for your toast.

 

 

The best way to inspire and create momentum as a father of the groom as you move forward with your speech is to ensure you are headed in the right direction. 

 

 

I like to liken this to a chef who is preparing a sumptuous meal fit for a king. He can only deliver a finger-licking meal if he’s in the right frame of mind and has all the right ingredients in the right amount.

 

 

Similarly, you can only deliver a really good father of the groom speech if you have right tools to work with. But, most importantly, you need to put yourself in a focused and calm mood.

 

 

To do that, you have to go to youtube.com and insert the search bar ‘’father of the groom speech’’ and other variants of that keywords. As you do, several videos will pop up like this:

Father of the groom speech templates and examples

 

Of course, you can’t sift through all of them due to time constraints. Besides, not all of them are that good.

 

 

So, let’s go back to what I told you about creating an ideal outcome in your mind at the start of this piece. Do you still remember that? Ok, good. So, for example, if you are fun to be around, then you can probably do a funny father of the groom speech.

 

 

In this case, you can add that keyword into the search bar and watch a video like this to get you in the mood:

 



Again, if you are a very expressive person or have a knack for churning out great stories, you can watch a storytelling speech like this one to put you in the mood as well.

 



If you are someone who wears your heart on your sleeves, then you can look for a touching or sentimental father of the groom speech on that same platform. Here’s one I found for you from that domain to help put you in the mood.

 



Do you have an idea of what I mean by delivering a speech based on who you are? And did you notice how I kept repeating this phrase: ‘’put you in the mood’’

 

Let’s see exactly how it works. Putting yourself in the mood simply means putting one step forward if you have never made a speech your whole lifetime.

 

 

It also gives you a fair idea of how such speeches are made. What’s more, you can find ideas and tips you can work into your father of the groom wedding speech.

 

 

This is something you can do right now to get your momentum going: Scroll up the page to watch a father of the groom speech video clip.  Then, put down in your journal or open up your document and type or write the kind of speech you would like to deliver. Will you do something funny, heartfelt, or narrative? That’s not all there is to it anyway.

 

 

You can do something poetic or use my favorite style: sing-song father of the groom speech.  Let’s look at another example:

 

 

If you have a creative streak, you can do bits and pieces of each style to make your father of the groom speech unique and memorable. Wouldn’t you love it?

 

How To Get Content Ideas For Your Father Of The Groom Speech

Next, let’s look at how and where to get content ideas for your father of the groom speech as that will form the basis for the content material.

Now, let’s look at where to get ideas for your speech.

 

 

Can you guess where those ideas are? They are all lying dormant in your mind. Fond memories of when your son was born, to when he was a little, to when he was growing, to his engagement can help you come up with great ideas for your father of the groom speech.

 

 

Well, if you don’t have a razor-sharp memory and have forgotten some very precious moments, then you can do this simple exercise to bring them back instantly.

 

 

It is often said that you shouldn’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today. Drawing inspiration from this quote, let’s do this now since it can help you to build and maintain your confidence as a ‘’father of the groom speech writer’’ Please, don’t put it off until another time.

 

 

First, they say a picture is worth a thousand words and I think family pictures tell a story. So, grab your old family photos (vacation, graduation, birthday, and so on ) and recent ones to help you remember all those great moments you have had with your son growing up.

 

 

Second, if you have a scrap book you can flip through it to rekindle those treasured memories.

 

 

Third, you can dig up letters or notes or emails for some reflection. Still on that, you can look for greeting cards he sent over on birthdays, father’s day, thanksgiving, Easter and Christmas Holidays.

 

 

Here’s a hint:

Go through those photos to rekindle lost memories and put down stories those pictures bring to mind. They should be memories you would like to highlight in your father of the groom speech.

 

 

Letters and the other stuff aren’t meant for reminiscing on past events alone but for also helping you recall who he was and what he stood for.

What to say to your son at his wedding

 

For example, if your son Jimmy wrote you a touching letter expressing his love and admiration on father’s day, you can use portions of that letter to talk about his loving and caring personality.  I did this once for a mom and she loved every bit of it.

 

To illustrate, this is what I carved out of a long letter she sent over:

 

Daniel, I am so proud of you and how far you’ve come down the road of life. You have achieved a whole lot not only for yourself, but your family and in service of our country.

I remember when you were deployed to serve in Iraq the second time, we missed you so so badly and out of the blue, in January of 2010, you sent me a heartfelt poem.

 

In that poem, you spoke so lovingly of the love we have for each other, the great sacrifices I have made for you and our shared ordeals on the battlefield of life. It really touched my heart and soul. I nearly drowned in my own tears.

 

 

Here are a few questions to ask yourself as you review those pictures, letters, and notes.

  • What does this picture remind me about? Please write down your answers
  • Do I really want to use the stories that go with the pictures? Write down a yes or no to that.
  • Do you in anyway want to enhance your father of the groom speech with any of those photos? For example, you can use them as visual aids if you are doing a video presentation about your son.

 

Four

 

Why do you need all of that? By doing this, you can vary your speaking style so you don’t sound like one of those boring guys!

 

 

After you have done all that, you then launch into the deep by figuring out how to tie the thoughts and ideas you have already written down in response to the above questions into a very touching father of the groom speech.

 

 

Let me say that if you are not very gifted with words, it can be hard to know where and how to start. If you don’t know how to get around it, you will end up with a rather incoherent speech.

 

 

To make the writing process is simple, painless, quick, and very memorable on the wedding day; you have to first study a well-written father of the groom speech example/sample closely and carefully.

 

 

I will share with you such an example. Afterwards, I will analyze it and back aspects of it up with the right examples so you can make sense of it all.

 

As you go about studying the father of the groom speech example, you should reflect on the following questions: 

 

  • Are there aspects of the example you find interesting and fascinating?
  • Is there any way you can slot in the insights you got from reading it into your own writing?
  • Would you like to adapt the same style or you would like to come up with something else?
  • Do I like how it flows from the introduction to the conclusion(I will get to this in a heartbeat)

 

 

Without further ado, here it is:

 

Father Of The Groom Speech Example/ Template

Hello everyone. I’m Mike and I’m Eric’s father. On behalf of his mom Connie and I, we’d like to thank all of you for joining us in this very special celebration.

 

Erik came to us later in life than a lot of parents. So he wasn’t a surprise. He also came on his due date, which is very unusual from what I understand. So his actual birth was not unexpected either.

 

Still, as I was looking at this brand new miracle that had just entered into my life…I couldn’t help but think “I should have seen more movies. It’s going to be a long time before I get to see an entire movie, isn’t it?”

 

As a child, Eric was very kind, friendly and loved to entertain us with jokes. He had the mind of an engineer and was curious about everything. He used to look at his nookie as though he were trying to figure it out.

 

 

When he got his first bike with training wheels, he was so enamored with how training wheels worked that he tried to convince a neighbor to put training wheels on his road bike! Erik wanted him to let him know how they worked out.

 

Erik has always been a very good traveler. We took him to London and Paris to visit Connie’s sister when he was a little over a year old. He slept on the plane, didn’t cry, and I think even the other passengers were impressed! He even

climbed to the top of the Eiffel Tower when we got to France. Later, we got to go to Florida and see the launch of Atlantis. That was the final launch of the shuttle program, so that will always be a special memory.

 

He was a whizz at math. I remember a grade school teacher coming up to me and telling me that other children were coming to him for help with a math problem. That continued through college when he was a math tutor. Erik is always willing to help.

 

 

He was also a tremendous athlete in school. I remember this one sniper hockey shot that he made from midcourt.

Later, when I asked why he didn’t pass it on to a teammate he said that the teammate would have hit a pipe and missed the goal. I also have this (show baseball pic) greatest picture of all time. Erik sliding into home in baseball! It was fun watching him grow up and celebrating his accomplishments. It was also fun just to see him play.

 

He was very committed. He would always play for the entire season, even after others dropped out. Once he said that he was going to do something, well then you could take that promise to the bank.

 

He still is that way today. He’s a man of integrity, commitment, and honesty. That is why we are so happy that today he gets to make the ultimate commitment to someone who is also honest, smart, and loving.

 

Eileen, you are the best thing to ever happen to Erik. You are his best friend, his partner in life, and his one true love. We knew, well, we certainly expected, that you would be the one. Erik never brought women home unless he was serious.

 

You struck us as someone he felt more for than anyone right from the start. We are very proud of both of you and I’m so happy that our son has found someone that will bring him joy and happiness.

 

Tommy and Laura, you have raised a beautiful girl, inside and out. You should be so proud of her. And now we are family too! We look forward to more celebrations like this one in the years ahead.

 

Now is the time for advice for the couple. Erik, you need to learn the most important seven words any man can know if they plan to be happily married. Those words are and always will be “yes, dear.” “you were right” and “I’m

sorry.” The old adage, happy wife - happy life did not become an old adage because it isn’t true. It is very, very true!

 

Faith is important too. When you can’t see a solution to a problem when looking around, don’t be afraid to look up. God will be with you

always.

 

Also know that your support group, including me and your mother will always be here to assist, guide, or advise you.

 

I’m going to end with a movie quote. The most important value I have found is your integrity. That is something no one can take away from you. People try and test you hard, but it’s just a test, and sometimes letting go of some thingsthat looks like a really good thing, but compromising your integrity is not worth it in the long run.

 

So what I am saying is be true to your values and give yourself permission to “buzz the tower” every once in a while.

 

The two of you are heading into your greatest adventure, your greatest challenge, and your greatest accomplishment ever. Be kind to one another, and take care of each other.

 

I wish you all the happiness in the world. Let’s raise our glasses to Erik and Eileen! May you live happily ever after!

The Right Way To Use The Father Of The Groom Speech Examples

 

Can you remember what your brilliant English teacher said about the three parts of an essay back in school? Well, it’s been ages, but can you give it a whirl? You just give it a try. A wild guess would make me happy.

 

 

Please stop scratching your head…I will help you out. Here’s the answer: The three parts are: Introduction…body…conclusion.

 

The father of the groom speech example above has all these three parts. If you really want the writing of your father of the groom speech to go down well, you have to split your piece into these three main parts: introduction, body, and conclusion.

 

 

Your introductory remarks are like a magnetic force of attraction because it pulls everyone into your speech.  So you should come up with a killer hook.

 

 

To help you do this, I am going to cull a small portion of it from the above template so you can get an idea of how to write a captivating opener. Here’s our excerpt drawn from our father of the groom speech example.

‘’ Hello everyone. I’m Mike and I’m Eric’s father.

On behalf of his mom Connie and I, we’d like to

thank all of you for joining us in this very

special celebration. ‘’

 

 

You see, there are two sides of the coin when it comes to writing a great opening address and you should always treat each side with the same care and consideration if you want your father of the groom speech to be very successful.

 

 

With that in mind, let’s look at the first side of the coin: the opening remarks

 

It should include these writing elements:

  • Greetings and short-self introduction
  • Expression of gratitude
  • State who you are and your role in the wedding. This is particularly helpful if you are doing father of the groom best man speech.

 

Father of the groom speech etiquette

 

Here’s an example:

When my son asked me to be his best man, my heart missed several beats and I almost passed out. Well, I figured he could have been asked his best friend Mark because they have been friends for 30 years. But I realized that he saw me more than a dad and it brought to the fore our deepest respect and love for one another.

 

Got it, now?

 

The second part of your opening remarks is called the hook and I like it to a movie trailer. It has to inspire and engage your family and friends right out of the gate. Below are some practical ways to do just that.

 

 

First, you can tell a little story about your boy’s childhood.

 

Second, if his mom is not around or deceased, you can pay her a small tribute. Just don’t overdo it because your speech is loving tribute to your son and not a funeral speech. Never, ever forget that.

 

Third, you can make your opening lines witty by using any of these fathers of the groom speech quotes to help you sound smarter and more confident in your delivery.

 

These thoughtful quotes can help jazz up your speech. Please take note of the underlined quote because we will talk about it in our discussion.

  • Every father should remember one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.”- Charles F.Kettering
  • “My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.- Jim Valvano
  • “No love is greater than that of a father for his son.” ― Dan Brown
  • A son is the clearest reflection of his father in the world’’- Unknown

 

 

Now, let’s use the first quote to write a very short father of the groom speech.

 

 

When I look at how far my beloved son has come down the road, it reminds me of what my dad said when his grandson was born. As a new dad, I was struggling to raise a new family.

 

So, I sought his opinion on a few things and one of the things he said that stills run deep was: Mark, you should remember that one day your little baby would grow up to follow your example, not your advice’’

 

 

Did you notice how I infused the stressed quote into that short father of the groom speech? That’s just one way of using them to enhance a wedding speech.

 

 

As previously stated, the body comes after your introductory remarks? What do you say when crafting it? That looks easy, right? Hmm. That depends on a lot of factors.

 

 

Of the three aspects of your speech, the body is the toughest part to write. Here’s why. With so many stories about his life buzzing in your head like a swarm of bees, it can be pretty tough to separate ‘’the wheat from the chaff’’ so to speak.

 

But; it’s completely doable. How so? Let’s get back to the body of our speech so you can model your speech after it.

 

Before we look into it, there are a few things you should bear in mind before you craft the body of your father of the groom speech.

 

This Is How Long Your Father Of The Groom Speech Should Be

 

A question most fathers ask is this: How long should my father of the groom speech be? I am not here to give my personal opinion. My answer is based on my working experience of being a father of the groom speech writer for several years.

 

The length of your father of the groom speech should be like having your favorite meal. It should be enough to make you feel full. What does that mean? Ok, I will explain further.

 

I have written both long and short father of the groom speeches and in both instances, I made sure they were exciting and not boring. So, long or short is not something to worry about.

 

Simply put, your storyline should be engaging. But, if your son has asked you to speak for a few minutes (say five, seven, and so on), then your story should be within that time limit.

 

 

He won’t mind though if you beyond the allotted time provided your speech is lovely.  I think sharing this case study will put this matter to bed. One time, I wrote a long father of the groom speech for this nice gentleman. He loved it but had a little concern about its length.

 

 

Well, we couldn’t narrow it down as he‘d wanted because he wanted to include everything about his son. In the end, he got rid of a few things in his speech. But, it was still a little bit long. To cut a long story short, he went with it and came back to say that his speech was a crowd pleaser.

 

 

Another time, I wrote a not so long speech for this grandfather of the groom and he trimmed it down to just one page and his performance was very outstanding. Did you see the difference? Long and short father of the groom speeches can work for you. You have to decide the route to take.

 

 

All in all, the content and style of your speech trumps everything else.  Nonetheless, your speech is patchwork of every single detail of your son’s life and shouldn’t sound like a biography. If sounds like one, then you really need help.

 

 

Do you recall what I said about delivering your lines based on your personality at the outset of this article? Well, that is very vital when crafting the body of your speech.

 

 

If you are a funny guy, you may do a funny speech. If you get teary whenever you talk about your son, you can do a sentimental father of the groom speech.

 

 

On the whole, father of the groom speeches that blends humor, sentiments, and storytelling always seem to be preferred style the wedding crowd enjoy the most.

Having said that, let’s see how this extract (taken from the earlier example) can help you put down a decent story (the body) about your son without twisting facts.

‘’ As a child, Eric was very kind, friendly and

loved to entertain us with jokes.

 Erik has always been a very good traveler. We

climbed to the top of the Eiffel Tower when we

got to France. Later, we got to go to Florida and…

 

He was a whizz at math. I remember a grade

school teacher…

 

He was also a tremendous athlete in school. I

remember this one sniper…

 

 

Do you notice anything that stands out from that summary? Ok, let’s get on with this. To compose the body, you could write down one or more of these anecdotes to get it right:

 

  • Put down memories about his childhood and pick at least two really interesting stories you would like to use.
  • Put down a few memorable details about his youthful years.

 

Here, you may talk or write about his…

  • First job…Was he liked by his boss? What was his work ethic like? Did he love that job? Anything about that job that makes him proud?

 

  • High school graduation and scholarly achievements…was he on the deans or honors list? Did he graduate college?
  • Volunteerism and sports awards received…was he on the basketball or soccer team?

 

 

If your son’s youthful years weren’t particularly eventful, you can highlight his admirable traits. Was he kind? Giving? Is he a person of faith?

 

Reckoning that their sons are the main focus of their wedding speeches, some fathers only talk about their sons. But, you shouldn’t have to do that. Talk about your daughter-in-law too .

 

This example can give you an idea about what to say about her:

Grace gives Mike strength and the belief in himself to go out and achieve all that she wants. She’s an independent, strong lady anyway, but she is happier with him beside her. They are pretty inseparable.

 

 

Let’s do this together (here’s a small assignment for you) : Can you write something about your son using what I have just shared with you? You can….so please go ahead and do it.

 

What to say to your son and daughter-in-law at son's wedding

 

 

Let’s Look At The Closing Chapter Of This Post: The Conclusion

 

Whenever fathers think of rounding up their speeches, they thinking of writing it along these simple lines:

‘’Now is the time for advice for the couple. Erik,

you need to learn….

I wish you all the happiness in the world. Let’s

raise our glasses to Erik and ‘’

 

 

That’s okay as it’s a tried and tested approach of ending on a good note. But, when it comes to ending your father of the groom, memorableness should be the watch word because your closing lines are what your family and friends will remember most.

 

 

So, how can you end on a very memorable note? I am happy to share a few simple but proven ideas with you.

 

 

First, you can end with a witty quote. This quote can come from your own mind, movies, proverbs, and so on.

 

Don’t you think this quote will stick in the mind of your listeners if it’s used as your closing statement?

"The heart wants what it wants." — English love proverb

 

Second, if you are musically gifted, you can do a beautiful rendition of this funny song.

 

 

Imagine tweaking the lyrics a bit and ending with that!

The Meaning Of Love By Krina Shah

To love is to share life together,
to build special plans just for two,
to work side by side,
and then smile with pride,
as one by one, dreams all come true.

To love is to help and encourage
with smiles and sincere words of praise,
to take time to share,
to listen and care
in tender, affectionate ways.

To love is to have someone special,
one on whom you can always depend
to be there through the years,
sharing laughter and tears,
as a partner, a lover, a friend.

To love is to make special memories
of moments you love to recall,

Or you are simply twiddling your thumbs and aimlessly wondering that someway somehow you will have that brainwave that will help you give one of the best wedding speeches at the rehearsal night?

 

Well, in this piece, I am going to share with you some proven and time-tested tips and ideas that will help you write the best ever father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech?

Are you ready to rumble? Before I do, let me help you get a few things right.

 

 

Change This View About You And You Will Be Fine

Most fathers think that they somehow need to have good writing skills or excellent speaking skills to say something sweet about their precious sons and daughters-in-law.

 

 

Although having those innate qualities can help, they are by no means all you need to write a heartfelt rehearsal dinners since many other factors come into play when making something extraordinary. 

 

 

To do this successfully, you first have to figure out where and how you can find the right ideas and samples to help you make your son proud. Additionally, if you are feeling nervous, then, you have to also put that in check.  

 

 

Speaking about nervousness reminds me of the reason why most fathers fail to impress when they are asked to give a few remarks at the rehearsal night.

 

I remember writing a wedding toast for someone who liked it so much that she couldn’t wait to deliver it before the audience. But I was surprised to know that she let her guard down when she was called to speak at the wedding. This happens all the time.

 

 

You might have prepared the best father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech toast, but, if you lack the guts to deliver it well, your message won’t strike the right chord with the wedding attendees.  This usually happens due to an unhealthy fixation on past speaking failures.

 

 

I often hear people say that two wrongs don’t make one right. In speech-making, however, one wrong may lead to multiple wrongs.  You see, whenever you fail to make a favorable impression before a small crowd, it is highly likely that you will make another blunder at another event if you fail to take charge of your thoughts.

 

The Bible tells us that as a man thinks, so is he. What that means is that you will become a  visible expression of your thoughts.

 

So, if you probably failed up to live up to expectation when you were asked to give a few remarks at one of your children’s wedding, memories of that unfortunate incident that will keep replaying in your mind as though as you are watching a blockbuster movie as you prepare for your speech.

 

 

But, you don’t have to be consumed by those pictures of failure. Even if they recur, you can choose instead to focus on this new task and believe deep down in your heart that you are going to pull off something remarkable this time around and you will end up experiencing a surge of strength that will help you get mentally alert. 

 

That in essence is what should precede the actual writing of your rehearsal dinner speech for your son and daughter-in-law.

 

After undergoing this mental exercise,  you can then start by looking for the right ideas and examples. Rehearsal dinner speech examples can easily help you make the desired progress. There are two kinds of samples here: video and well-written examples. They complement each other like a good husband and wife.

 

Both can get you in the mood for the right expression of your thoughts. So, what you have to do in a couple of minutes is to watch a few good videos and write down ideas that you can use for your speech.

 

 

By the way, below are two excellent examples I found that you can watch and learn from.

Father of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech  Video# 2

 

 

Well, if you love reading as much as I do, then, this is a short father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech example that can inspire you.

 

Below is a short funny father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech

 

Good evening everyone. For those of you who don’t me, I am Warren, Mike’s dad, and Nancy’s newly minted dad.

 

I have been on many exciting and beautiful adventures, but none is as rewarding as fulfilling as being Mike’s dad.

 

That takes me back to when Mike came into my life and made my joy complete.


By the way, it was a nerve-wracking first night for the clueless new dad, but it got better from there, and I looked forward to embarking on my life-changing journey of fatherhood.

 

Growing up, Mike was very responsible, well- organized, and wise beyond my age. He was my little helper for projects around the house. Mike would clean and organize the Tupperware and even look out for his younger brothers, Jerry and Dan.

 

As he grew older, he was fun to hang out with. I remember taking him to see a newer version of Tom and Jerry when he was about 7 years old. He was so enchanted by how Jerry sneaked under Tom’s bed after stealing some stuff from the refrigerator. So, the next day, he stole his brother’s soccer ball and his under our bed for close to three hours.

 

It wasn’t until later that his brother was about to have an afternoon nap that he kicked what felt like a pair of socks balled up under his bed.

 

So, he looked under it and saw Mike coiled up like a snake and fast asleep like a log. He was so startled that he knocked his head against the bed as he tried getting out of there when his brother held his hand and pulled it hard!

 

I also have memories of the family going on family vacations, and amusement rides at the Mall of America where he was an active participant.

 

The most memorable, however, were projects we both worked on was when he was in college.

 

I remember that in college, Mike became of the D.J group and I helped him built some sort of head-piece, made from an old computer monitor that he could wear while DJ’ing.

 

Speech for my son at rehearsal dinner

Sadly, however, the whole thing ended up weighing 20 pounds and didn’t work that well.

 

But nothing could deter us from coming up with our own innovations because I always had this dependable handyman by my side. Well, not too long ago, we built a live-edge Walnut TV that is now in Mike’s and Nancy’s apartment.

 

Mike, I consider myself the proudest dad ever because you’ve grown up into a loving, caring, calm, responsible, industrious, and disciplined young man more than I could ever imagine.

 

I am in awe of his strong work ethic, your sense of purpose, your can-do attitude, and your incredible love for our entire family.

 

You have some amazing qualities that will help you become a great husband and father. I wish you all the best and I really want to thank you for everything.

 

Nancy, you really picked a winner and you should be thankful for having him in your life. I can see from that warm, glowing smile that you’ve found the special treasure of your heart.

 

Nancy is a wonderful,  person and I know she will help make Mike an even stronger, more responsible, and kinder man.

 

She really impressed us when we first met you.

 

Over time, I could tell you were his perfect match as I noticed how friendly, loving, smart, and down to earth you are.

 

What I really admire about Ashley is her sense of calm composure.   I have watched with admiration and wonder as she effortlessly prepared for her wedding while going through medical school and that should tell you who she is.

 

We are also happy to be a part of your family too. Mike and Nancy, you both are a wonderful couple and the good thing is you have similar hopes, dreams, and aspirations.

 

As you know, all true love stories have up and down moments. Guess what? Those moments come to refine the love a couple has for each other. So, as you go through life, do expect some rough times.  But always choose to love each other when you struggle to like each other and you will experience the purest kind of love there is.

 

God bless you and wish you all the best.

 

Djdjdj

 

Did you enjoy reading that? Well, I really enjoyed the story about Mike coiling up like a snake under the bed.

By the way, I am going to show you how to write one by breaking that example down so you can get an idea of what went into writing that father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech example.

 

Before we do, let us take parts of it to guide us along the way.

 

Here is a snippet of the introduction:

''Good evening everyone. For those of you who don’t me, I am Warren, Mike’s dad, and Nancy’s newly minted dad.

I have been on many exciting and beautiful adventures, but none is as rewarding as fulfilling as being Mike’s dad''

 

Well, if you study that sample above, you will realize that there are three parts to it: introduction, body, and conclusion.

 

The extracted example is an example of a short and simple opening statement.

 

As you can see, the writer mentioned his name and his relationship with the bride and groom. That is the norm with most speeches. But it goes beyond that.

 

The introduction serves two purposes: mentioning your name and relationship with the bride and the groom. Then, you ultimately connect that to the second part of the introduction.

 

Here, the father of the groom didn’t mention those he wanted to express gratitude for helping his family raise the groom.  Let me ask you this: Which persons would you like to mention?

 

Action Tip: Write down the names of such individuals. You can mention your wife, the groom’s mother, your own parents or his grandparents, the mom and dad of the bride, his own brothers and sisters, and so on.

For example, if you mention his mom, you can attach it with a few words.

 

Below is an illustration: 

First and foremost, my immense gratitude goes to Joanna for her love and support all these years. I was on the road most of the time and she played such a key role…

 

Did you see that? You have to do likewise. Well, if the groom’s mom or grandparents are not alive, you may still honor them if you want. But make sure what you say doesn’t spoil the joyous mood by dwelling too much on their demise.

 

What’s more, if you and his mom are no longer married, you should steer away from talking about that or even referring to her as your ex-wife.

 

How to write a rehearsal dinner speech by father to son

 

You simply have to say his mom if you are making a reference to her.  If you can skillfully use your speech to heal old wounds, then you will earn the admiration of those around you.

 

I remember talking about the second part of the introduction, right? So, let’s get right to it.  After you said your thank-yous, you have to start with a riveting opener that will engage the attention of the wedding guests from the get-go because you can never have a second chance to make a first impression.

 

It’s very sad that most fathers of the groom don’t make good use of the opportunity to start on a bright note.

 

I know most of them are clueless. But having been to so many weddings, you should be able to spot the very good ones without blinking an eye.

 

Whatever it is, I am happy to share with you some practical ideas you can use to draw your guests in and give them something to smile about.

 

First, you can start with a good joke or a humorous story about when your son was born. There was a time a man shared with me a story about how he got so panicked that he packed his car in the wrong place and he had to be called to make way for another car to move out.

 

If you don’t remember anything like that, you can still use a joke or a quote like those below to create a funny father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech.

 

''Fatherhood is great because you can ruin someone from scratch.'' – Jon Stewart

 

''If you ever want to torture my dad, tie him up and right in front of him, refold a map incorrectly. ''– Cathy Ladman

 

 

Ok, suppose I want to use the first quote to start my speech, this is how I would do it.

 

I read a quote that says: '' Fatherhood is great because you can ruin someone from scratch’’ I saw this a week after we had Mike and promised myself that I was going to make a man out of him and toughen him up. So, when he was only a little boy, we went on an early morning jog…''

 

 

Did you see how I did that? Don’t you think this will engage them from the start of your presentation?  Naturally, if your son is a strong person with an awesome personality, then, they will be very eager to know how you made that happen.

 

Again, if you want to make your speech heartfelt or touching, you can either share how you felt when your son was born.

 

Do you remember all that happened on the day he was born? If you have forgotten about that experience, you can ask her mother or if you like taking notes, please consult your old journals.

 

What’s more, you can start with a beautiful quote to spiff up your father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech

 

Here are some heartwarming quotes you can use to enrich it.

 

  • ''The heart of a father is the masterpiece of nature''-Unknown
  • ''There is this special connection between a father and his son. It may be barely visible, but it’s there. It’s always like that with sons and fathers''-Unknown
  • ''The bond between a father and a son is a true friendship no one can ever break.''-Unknown
  • ''By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he’s wrong.''-Charles Wadsworth
  • ''You don’t raise heroes, you raise sons. And if you treat them like sons, they’ll turn out to be heroes, even if it’s just in your own eyes.''- Walter M. Schirra, Sr.

 

 

I especially love this quote: ''There is this special connection between a father and his son. It may be barely visible, but it’s there. It’s always like that with sons and fathers.''- Unknown

 

 

Now, just watch how I do it with the underlined words.

 

I have had the distinct privilege of sharing my whole life with Mike and I must say that there will never be anything quite as special as the love between him and me.

 

 

Ok, let us move on to the next chapter of the writing process.

 

How To Write An Outline Or Structure of Your Father of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech

 

Again, we have to see excerpts of it to inspire us to put down our thoughts on paper.

 

''Growing up, Mike was a very responsible, well- organized and wise beyond my age. He was my little helper for projects around the house. Mike would clean and organize the Tupperware, and even look out for his younger brothers, Jerry and Dan.

 

 

As he grew older, he was fun to hang out with. I remember taking him to see a newer version of Tom and Jerry when he was about 7 years old. He was so enchanted by how Jerry sneaked under Tom’s bed after stealing some goodies. So, the next day, he stole his brother’s soccer ball and his under our bed for close to three hours. ''

 

Speech toast for my and daughter-in-law at rehearsal dinner

If there’s any part of your speech that will make the audience laugh or cry a little, then it’s this part of your speech. It’s the easiest part to write since it’s basically composed of stories. 

 

 

But before I show you how to make this aspect of your story about your son’s life unique and memorable, there are a couple of things I would like to bring to your attention.

 

Before you scribble down your thoughts, you should pick a style and theme that’s unique to you.

 

Depending on who you are, you can decide to make your speech poetic, sentimental, funny, storytelling, or a combination of all these styles which is what most fathers prefer.

 

I recently wrote a father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech where the groom’s dad made the phrase ''Make It A Gold'' as the theme of your speech.  It ended up being one of the best speeches of the night and I enjoy reading it to this day.

 

If you want to come up with one, you have to consider one outstanding thing about your child that you wish to include in your wedding toast.

 

If that doesn’t make sense to you, you can make it flow from his childhood through adulthood.

 

These pointers can help you draft the content of your speech.

 

  • Write down answers to the following questions
  • What was he like when he was a small kid?
  • What was he like when he was growing up?
  • Was he your normal teenager or there was something peculiar about him?
  • Does he have any accomplishments you wish to share?

 

Having written answers to the following questions and more, just put together a simple draft that you can go back to edit later on. Or you can simply let a fresh pair of eyes review it since that person can easily spot mistakes your eyes might have overlooked when you first wrote it.

Now, let us see

How To Write A Memorable Ending

Again, here are some snippets to help us get started

 

''Guess what? Those moments come to refine the love a couple has for each other. So, as you go through life, do expect some rough times.  But always choose to love each other when you struggle to like each other and you will experience the purest kind of love there is. God bless you and wish you all the best.''

 

The conclusion should be as moving as the introduction because this is the part most folks will remember the most.

 

First, you may go with the example I have shared or tweak it a bit.

 

Second, you can share a piece of advice based on the years of being married. We can use this sweet and witty quote by Mark Twain

 

''Love seems the swiftest, but it is the slowest of all growths. No man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married a quarter of a century. ''

 

We can use that to write this:  

Mark Twain once said that no man or woman really knows what perfect love is until they have been married a quarter of a century.  I am blessed to have experienced that and can only wish the same and more for both of you.

 

A perfect way of wrapping up is to sing it if you have a good singing voice. Here's how a dad sang his.

 

 

Well, you may accompany it with a musical instrument you can really play. If you are a religious person or a born again Christian, you can either end with a prayer for the couple or even use some of these scriptures to wrap up.

 

Psalm 128

A song of ascents.

Blessed are all who fear the Lord,
    who walk in obedience to him.
You will eat the fruit of your labor;
    blessings and prosperity will be yours.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
    within your house;
your children will be like olive shoots
    around your table.
Yes, this will be the blessing
    for the man who fears the Lord.

May the Lord bless you from Zion;
    may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem
    all the days of your life.
May you live to see your children’s children—
    peace be on Israel.

 

“Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” ~Ecclesiastes 4:12~

 

You can also simply wish them well.  Saying this shouldn’t be hard right? Since good words are the foundation of a good marriage, you should put a great deal of thought into this.

 

 

Again, if you have nothing to say at all, then, you may end with a toast. You may borrow these words from the movie when Harry Met Sally:  

 

''When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.''— Harry Burns, When Harry Met Sally

Father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech help and writing assistance(Just Scroll Down For Help From The Experts)

 

Dear Anxious Dad,

I am Glen,

I know you are dreaming of giving a very beautiful and heartfelt wedding speech.

 

Granted, it’s not so easy to write a great one let alone face a terrifying audience.

 

Like you, I badly wanted to give a great speech that will make my son proud and show him and the guests how much I really love him.

 

But, juggling work and family meant I had little time to spare.

 

Besides, finding the right words was like pulling out a child’s tooth.

 

I Was Totally Helpless

I knew the audience wanted me to do my very best because I was well known for my speaking abilities.

But, I couldn’t put my thoughts together in a very compelling way.

 

That was a bit puzzling because I had given so many speeches. But, I never knew wedding speeches were very different.

I spent countless hours, sometimes deep into the night, but things didn’t work out as I had hoped for.

 

I Goofed!

On the wedding day of my son Mark, I was so nervous that I lost my composure and my words were inaudible.

 

To cut a long story short, I got a few compliments, but deep down within my heart, I knew those praises were not sincere.

 

I Got A Standing Ovation!

 

When Jerry, my other child was getting married, I vowed to do my very best to make him proud.

 

But like before, I was so scared. I thought I’d fail to impress on his big day too.

 

Looking everywhere for help, I landed on this page you are currently reading.

 

This Helped Me Out!

 

However, I was skeptical when Dan and his team said they could help give a great wedding speech even if I hated speaking in public.

 

Well, I took a leap of faith when I found that I didn’t have to pay first to get my speech and that allayed my fears.

 

Quickly, I got started by first filling out this form as I really wanted to make a difference this time.

Dan and his team delivered what they promised and I loved it after asking for some edits.

 

When I was called to deliver my speech, the room was dead silent and most of those who knew me from my other son’s wedding were not really expecting much from me. 

 

But I proved them wrong this time around. I spoke with poise, flair, and confidence and got a standing ovation this time!!!!

My son and our entire family were so proud of me.

Those who thought I'd disappoint got it all wrong. I was an unlikely hero. Dan and his guys asked me how my speech went afterward and this was the note I sent them after my son's wedding.

Please see image below

''The wedding was GREAT. There were about 120 guests. About 15 people came up to me afterward and told me I gave a great speech. I had to tweak it little because of my tardiness getting it to you but, it all turned out great. Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it''Phil Australia 

 

 

Listen, all these persons you have just listened to are mere mortals like you and me and many were scared to death about this whole wedding speech thing.

 

But they all decided to take action by asking our wedding speech consultants to help them give incredible wedding speeches and we didn’t let them down.

Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech And Toast

How To Easily And Quickly Write A Beautiful Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech That Will Wow The Guests And Make Your Family Feel So Proud Of You

 

6

 

Every now and then, I get lots of emails and messages from dads of the grooms whose dreams are to write heart-touching and funny father of the groom rehearsal dinner speeches.

 

As good as their intentions are, most of them have these mental roadblocks that prevent them from reaching their dreams.

 

Guess what they are? Most of them can’t put together their exact thoughts and emotions into very beautiful words because they think they have to be very talented writers to come up with the best ever father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech for their sons.

 

Well, I feel very privileged to have written for very seasoned writers and speakers and I can assure you that having a way with words doesn't necessarily guarantee that your speech will be a hit. 

 

As you know, it’s not an easy walk in the park if you really want to make your precious son and even your entire family proud.

 

Here’s Why You Don’t Have to Worry

 

Wondering how to get the best words and ideas to help you craft some memorable lines without going through the usual stress and hassle?

 

But, you don’t have to worry because I have some good ideas to help you calm not only your nerves but also jot down the very sentiments of your heart.

 

Before we do, I want you to get this right if you have some worries about what to expect as your son’s big day draws near. This is what I do before I even grab my pen to write and it has worked for so many fathers too. 

 

Father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech examples

 

This Really Breaks My Heart

 

Even though I have been writing rehearsal dinner speeches for a very long time, I sometimes get nervous when a dad writes to me and say:

''Dan, can you help me with my rehearsal dinner speech? The towners are going to be there…In fact, 400 guests and I am very sorry for bringing this up on a very short notice…Please I have never done this my whole life''

 

Seriously, messages like that get me thinking about how to make things happen because I feel everyone’s case is different and I really had to go above and beyond to make this happen.

 

Even though I am quite experienced, there’s always this little voice that tells me: ''Dan, you can’t do it!''

 

Why I am bringing this up? I am doing so because you also get this irritating voice that will remind you of your past failures like:

  • You flunked English and can’t make it.
  • You’re not good at this.
  • Do you remember how you goofed big time when you made your speech that year?

 

I could go on and on…

 

This is what I do and recommend you do too whenever you hear those nasty voices in your head. 

Just ignore them even when they become persistent because you have what it takes to make all the difference this time around. 

So, constantly envision yourself speaking with poise and flair and your confidence will soar.

Always remember that you can do whatever you have in mind despite your shortcomings if you simply believe you can. I don't personally know you but I believe in you because every person on earth is endowed with special abilities. 

 

Do This and You’ll Get the Good Words

 

That’s the first step. Now, let’s look at the next thing I do before I write father of the groom rehearsal dinner speeches.

It has got to do with finding the good words and ideas and phrases to express what's on your heart

 

First... Put yourself in the mood

How do you do that? By watching videos about the subject matter online or anywhere you can find well-written speeches.

By the way, here’s a brilliant piece I found to inspire you. You can hit the play button and soak it all in.

As you do, look at how the speaker presents his message and jot down ideas you feel you can incorporate into your own speech (you can skip if you’re in a hurry or want to get to the heart of the matter)

Here you go:

 

Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech Video

 

 

Besides that video, another great tool I use and I totally recommend which will make your task fairly easy are: father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech samples

 

Here’s a very short example just for you.

To write a rough outline of my speech using that example as my guide, I put down the three sections of my speech down on paper:

  • Introduction
  • Body
  • Conclusion

 

This is what I do next. 

First, I decide to put down the opening lines of your speech and we saw that in this piece: how to write a dad of the groom's speech introduction that captures the heart.

 

This is The Master Key

Next, you have to get your ideas together for the main part of the speech or the body of your delivery.

You can then decide to write something brief or even follow what most dads prefer: letting their thoughts flow from childhood through adulthood or even concentrate on what makes your son unique.

 

Whatever your goals are, proven tools like wisecracks, jokes, poetry and even songs can help you put across your ideas effectively.

 

Suppose you want to flow chronologically, then you can first talk about how you felt when your son was born. To do that, you need some quotes to inspire you. Here are of course a few good ones you can use creatively:

 

Quote#1: '' Becoming a father increases your capacity for love and your level of patience. It opens up another door in a person - a door which you may not even have known was there. That's what I feel with my son. There's suddenly another level of love that expands. My son is my greatest joy, out of everything in my life''-Kyle MacLachlan

Quote#2: ''I love my son more than anything. I will do whatever it takes to make sure he is raised the right way.'' -Bristol Palin

 

Quote#3: ''The most important mark I will leave on this world is my son'' -Sarah Shahi



Quote#4: ''My son has been the best thing that has happened in my life. He has been amazing, and he is truly heaven-sent. And so, I just feel all that love.''- Ciara

 

Quote#5: ''Until you have a son of your own... you will never know the joy, the love beyond feeling that resonates in the heart of a father as he looks upon his son.''- Kent Nerburn

Speech by father on his son's rehearsal dinner

 

Let me ask you this simple question: If you were to write something about your son, which of those quotes would you use?

 

Well, I will go for quote #5: Until you have a son of your own... you will never know the joy, the love beyond feeling that resonates in the heart of a father as he looks upon his son.'' -  Kent Nerburn

 

This Is A Special Gift For You

Ok…I am writing this at the start of a New Year, so let me give you this New Year’s gift.

 

I am going to use that quote. Now, this is a short example based on it.

 

''Mark, my son, has been a blessing to our entire family, and I never knew how much love and joy my heart could hold until I saw this cute frame on that beautiful day when he came into my life….''

 

Did you notice how I used this part: you will never know the joy, the love beyond feeling that resonates in the heart of a father as... to personalize that message?

 

I guess by now you can do that. Don’t worry if you still can’t because we are going to cover a lot of examples to help you out.

 

If you want to talk about your son's childhood, then you have to put down what he was like during his infant years.

 

Djdjdj

 

Personality traits like being happy, active, kind, loving….can be used to describe his infant years.

 

While there’s nothing wrong with using those adjectives, you can go a step further by using similes and metaphors instead of those clichés or worn-out phrases to paint pictures in the minds of the wedding guests.

 

Ok, let me illustrate.

 

Which of these two do you think will make the wedding guests super-excited?

 

  • Growing up, Mark was a very happy little boy.

 

  • As a little boy, Mark was like a microwave. He was easy to handle, very warm on the side, and his sunny smiles warmed the hearts of everyone he came into contact with.

 

Which of those descriptions do you think will wow the guests?

 

From the happy look in your eyes, I know for sure you opted for the latter and that’s what I have in mind too.

 

You see, anytime you use similes and metaphors, you’re kind of painting a colorful, mental picture in your listener's mind, so use them sparingly if you want to enrich your rehearsal dinner speech for your son.

 

Here are a few good ones you can use:

 

  1. Instead of being active, you can say ''He was a bundle of energy or He was like fireworks''

 

  1. Instead of bravery, you can say ''he had the heart of a lion cub''

 

  1. Instead of being happy or having an infectious personality, you can say ''He was like the first spring rain''

 

  1. Instead of saying he was bright; you can say ''his memory was like a tape recorder or something similar''

 

  1. Instead of saying he was fun to be with or loving, you can say ''he was so sweet like a rose…''

 

Please feel free to use any of those descriptions to help you put down your thoughts and emotions into a very short but sweet dad of the groom rehearsal dinner speech.

 

What Should I Include Here?

 

The body is basically your storyline. So, please decide on the anecdotes you want to share about your son as he grew older. 

Speech for son and daughter-in-law on rehearsal night

That said; let’s look at how you can write other parts of the speech like your concluding remarks or toast.

 

I have seen from writing and reviewing speeches for dads that most of them take the closing remarks for granted but you shouldn’t.

 

Why?

 

Because it’s a perfect way of creating a memorable ending for the words you intend using for your son’s speech.

 

There are several ways you can do that and I am happy to share a few with you.

 

  1. Using love or marriage quotes to close your speech.

 

  1. Using love or marriage quotes from movies.

 

  1. If you have a good voice, you can sing it. Here's an example:

 

  1. By quoting from a love or marriage poem, you can end with power and impact.

 

 

As you may know, I love examples, so let me show you how this can be done using these movie quotes.

 

Movie quote a: ''Say you’ll share with me one love, one lifetime. Lead me, save me from my solitude. Say you want me with you, here beside you. Anywhere you go, let me go, too. Love me, that’s all I ask of you.'' – The Phantom Of The Opera

 

Movie quote b: ''The best love is the kind that awakens the soul; that makes us reach for more, that plants the fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. That’s what I hope to give you forever.'' – The Notebook

 

Movie quote c: ''I promise I’ll come back for you. I promise I’ll never leave you.'' – The English Patient

 

Movie quote d: ''Your heart is free, have the courage to follow it.'' – Braveheart

 

Movie quote e: ''It doesn’t matter if the guy is perfect or the girl is perfect, as long as they are perfect for each other.'' – Good Will Hunting

 

Do you mind using any of those lines to end your rehearsal dinner speech on a good note?

 

 

If I were you, I would have used the movie quote a

''Say you’ll share with me one love, one lifetime. Lead me, save me from my solitude. Say you want me with you, here beside you. Anywhere you go, let me go, too. Love me, that’s all I ask of you.'' – The Phantom Of The Opera

 

Using that, I came up with this: 

 

'' Mark and Amanda, on this memorable day of your lives, I want to leave you with a piece of advice.

Sharing your life with the one you love is a beautiful blessing because when two hearts beat as one, there is nothing you can’t achieve.

Today, you made your vows in the presence of friends and loved ones and when Mark said, ''anywhere you go, I will go'' it brought back memories of what my dad said to me when I tied the knot 30 years ago.

Mark’s granddad said that love is best felt when you share with some who’s not like you. I didn’t understand what he said back then, so I called him on the phone the next day and he told me that it's best to live forever with someone you can't live without. ''

Rehearsal diiner toast by father

 

P.S: This is what most wise dads do before they even put a single word on paper...Have you ever considered this? Do this and your speech will be well-received by the guests even if your writing sucks or you feel you're not cut out for public speaking.

Let's help you make your son, wife, and family proud and let the wedding guests say great things about your speech.

Here’s what one nervous and skeptical dad called Glen sent over after the wedding was over

Hey Dan, I just wanted to thank you once again for the speech you wrote with me. My goal was met afterward, I was told by many "what a beautiful speech" and received a standing ovation. I couldn't have done this without you. God Bless Dan!- Glen, U.S.A

Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech Or Toast Samples

Not too sure if you can write a beautiful wedding speech for your son at his rehearsal dinner? 

Just look over this sample and you’ll be a step away from making an amazing father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech even if you suck at public speaking or you really don’t know how to put down your exact thoughts and emotions into very beautiful words.

Four

 

John was so proud of his four children when they made it through college successfully and got the best jobs out there. His first two children had tied the knot but not Andy, his last child.

 

He longed to see him married as he was growing older. To their pleasant surprise, Andy popped the question and not long afterward, they began to make preparations to tie the knot.

 

Andy knew his dad was an accomplished public speaker and he was cocksure delivering a memorable father of the groom's speech will not be a big deal for him.

 

From his numerous speaking engagements overseas to speaking in local churches, John was expected to pull off something great but it turned out that saying something at the rehearsal dinner night was a tough task for him. 

Rehearsal dinner toast for son and daughter-in-law

He actually spent so much time thinking about how to write this dad of the groom speech and he eventually came up with this short father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech prior to the rehearsal dinner night. 

 

Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech Example

For those of you who don’t know me, my name is John and I am the dad of the groom.

My wife Andrea and I would like to say how happy and grateful we are to have you come from all over to celebrate with Andy and Amanda.

 

It’s such a heartfelt blessing to see John grow up from that handsome boy into an absolutely wonderful man that we see before us today. The moment he came into our lives, we just couldn’t imagine living a happy life without him being a part of it.

 

I remember cradling him in my protective arms and all I could only imagine was his future so bright.

As a little kid, he was very talented and curious. I still remember how we took on projects together like assembling a piece of furniture that had a thousand different bolts, screws, and nuts.

As you may know, assembling a piece of furniture requires careful reading and application of the entire instructions.

But John would simply ignore the instructions and intuitively fit all the pieces together!

 

From an early age, he knew what he wanted in life. I remember when we dropped him off on his first day of kindergarten; we were so concerned about him and we almost broke down in tears, but you could tell by the excitement in his eyes that he was so ready to go to school!

 

His sense of independence continued well into college.

I still recall how we drove halfway across the country to bring Andy to his first year of college.

We weren’t even there more a couple of hours that he met his best friend, Dan, who happens to be his best man.

 

Growing up, Andy was a good student and a good athlete.

He started to play baseball when he was a little boy and I was lucky to be the team’s coach all the way till he got into high school where he won the coaches' award in baseball.

 

His competitiveness instilled in him a sense of purpose and good teamwork and I am confident it will help him a lot as he starts life with Amanda.

                     

Ladies and gentlemen, no matter what kind of challenges we go through in our lives, we all have something deep within us that can be a blessing to others.

 

Through the ups and downs and in between, Andy has been a tremendous source of blessing and inspiration to our family, friends, and even others.

 

Andy's a naturally kind person and always goes out of his way to helping me, his mom, and his sister Michaela.

 

Andy, as parents, we have loved you and stood by you all these years as we strongly believed you that you deserve nothing but true love.

 

But we have always had it in mind someday you will have to spend the rest of your life with the person you cannot live without.

 

The more we got to know Amanda, the more we felt she was the one. Amanda, it’s very evident that you truly love and care for John.

 

You’re beautiful, loving, caring and we are confident that you will love our son till the end of time. We love you and on behalf of my family, I’d like to welcome you into our family with open arms.

 

Andy and Amanda, we look forward to watching you both build your lives together in love and harmony. So, always put each other first so your love wins in the end. God bless you both.

Before we start, let's look briefly at how to calm your nerves since the overwhelming majority of fathers struggle with that prior to saying some words about their son and daughter-in-law at the rehearsal dinner. 

 

Don't Worry About This At All 

 

If you are having butterflies in your tummy, then you have to put behind you whatever experiences or background you have regarding speaking
in public, and just believe that you can.

 

You can because you’re are a unique creation of  God endowed with the speech abilities, and you can do whatever you think right because he created you in his image. You don't have to squander your mental energy worrying about what to say or what your family will say about your speech.

 

Your mind will surely relay pictures of your past speaking failures. But you can take  complete control of the situation by visualizing your success and you will make it. 

 

Having said that, let's look at how to get the right words and ideas for your father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech. To do that, you first have to put yourself in the mood for the clever expression of your thoughts.

How To Write Your Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech Toast

 

Imagine how you will feel, how your son will feel, how your wife and family will feel if you can write something similar or better than the example we saw earlier. 

 

It doesn’t matter if you haven't got good writing skills to come up with one because I am going to break down John’s father of the groom rehearsal dinner speech and explain what went into it so you can write the best ever rehearsal wedding dinner speech for your son

 

This Is The Most Vital Part of Your Speech

 

First, let’s consider John's introductory lines:

''For those of you who don’t know me, my name is John and I am the dad of the groom.

My wife Andrea and I would like to say how happy and grateful we are to have you come from all over to celebrate with Andy and Amanda.''

 

Comments/ writing ideas:

 

As you know, the opening line of any speech is fairly easy to write. However, John failed to add some crucial information here. Can you guess what he left out?

 

Ok, he forgot to add the following ideas

 

  • Greetings and short-self introduction
  • Expressing appreciation to persons who were key in his son’s upbringing

 

As you write your opening remarks, you have to write down the names of people you would like to express appreciation for molding your son into who he is today.  Can you do a little brainstorming and put down the names of individuals you wish to mention? 

 

The short extract below buttresses the bullet points above

 

'' Good evening and welcome everyone.

If you really care about someone, the best gift you can give them is your time. You all have come from far and near to grace this beautiful occasion and we are highly indebted to a few individuals who helped raise our son. First, let me thank my wife and his mom for...''

 

Did you notice how I wrote that?

 

That’s not all; you can say a special thank you to the bride’s parents and your own family members like your dad and mom, brothers and sisters, wife, etc. and mention briefly how they contributed to your son’s success.

 

An example would be: 

 

A big thank you goes to Coach Mel and Coach Foley and Coach Sara (His swimming and diving high school coaches) for teaching him the value of hard work and dedication.

The Wedding Guests Expect This From You So…

 

Now, you’ve seen your son through all the phases of his life - as a sweet baby, a playful toddler, a mischievous middle schooler, a rebellious teenager, a dedicated graduate, a hardworking employee, and now, a responsible adult with dreams of having his own children one day.

 

You’ve celebrated his triumphs, stood by him during the challenging times, you’ve been his voice of reason, his Friday football buddy and also, the first person he’s called whenever he’s needed anything. So naturally, you occupy an important part of his special day’s proceedings.

 

What that means is that the body of your speech will serve as yet another thoughtful reminder of your relationship with your son.

 

So, without further ado, let's see how to write the body of your toast. Once again, let's re-look at excerpts of it to guide us each step of the way.

 

''It’s such a heartfelt blessing to see John grow up from that handsome boy into an absolutely wonderful man that we see before us today.

The moment he came into our lives, we just couldn’t imagine living a happy life without him being a part of it.

I remember cradling him in my protective arms and all I could only imagine was his future so bright.''

Comments/your writing ideas:

 

The body follows the introduction and it’s usually in three parts.

 

The first section of the body has the following themes running through every dad of the groom rehearsal dinner speech:

 

  • How did you feel when you were expecting him?
  • How did you feel when your son was born?
  • What were the early years like---you can briefly highlight what you went through if you were new parents

 

 

The second part of the body has the following themes running through the storyline:

 

  • What was your son like when he was a little kid?
  • What was he fond of?
  • What are memories of him growing up

 

As you can see, answers to those questions formed the backbone of this section of John’s speech:

 

As a little kid, he was very talented and curious.

I still remember how we took on projects together like assembling a piece of furniture that had a thousand different bolts, screws, and nuts.

As you may know, assembling a piece of furniture requires careful reading and application of the entire instructions.

But John would simply ignore the instructions and intuitively fit all the pieces together!

From an early age, he knew what he wanted in life.

I remember when we dropped him off on his first day of kindergarten; we were so concerned about him and we almost broke down in tears, but you could tell by the excitement in his eyes that he was so ready to go to school!

 

Comments/ your writing ideas: This is what I want you to do now:

 

Scroll up this page and put down on paper answers to those questions above and put down all your thoughts together in chronological order using that example as a guide.

What should the father of the groom say at rehearsal dinner

The third part of the body comprises of these key ideas:

 

  • Memories of your boy when he was growing up
  • His accomplishments or achievements in school
  • How proud you were of him when he was becoming a young man
  • Memories of adventures or trips you both embarked on

 

John makes good use of the points above to write this part of his rehearsal dinner speech:

 

His sense of independence continued well into college.

I still recall how we drove halfway across the country to bring Andy to his first year of college.

We weren’t even there more a couple of hours that he met his best friend, Dan, who happens to be his best man.

 

Growing up, Andy was a good student and a good athlete.

He started to play baseball and from when he was a little boy and I was lucky to be the team's coach all the way till he got into high school where he won the coaches award in baseball.

TWO

His competitiveness instilled in him a sense of purpose and good teamwork and I am confident it will help him a lot as he starts life with Amanda.

 

Comments/ your writing ideas:

 

Using those paragraphs and the ideas that precede it, please jot down everything you can remember about when your precious son was growing up.

 

Put as many of them that come to you because you never know which one can make your presentation to stand out. Just make sure you get a theme or themes for your speech and back it up with the right anecdotes.

 

For example, you can build your story around the themes of adventure and love. If you choose to do that, then, you have to support any attribute you choose with a suitable story that brings it alive. Without such memories, there will nothing in there the wedding guests can relate to.

 

Well, we have a few minutes to go, so please bear with me a little longer.

 

Here’s How To End Your Father Of The Groom Rehearsal Dinner Speech On A High Note!

 

By the way, here’s the final part of the body.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, no matter what kind of challenges we go through in our lives, we all have something deep within us that we can reach down and be a blessing to others.

Through the ups and downs and in between, Andy has been a tremendous source of blessing and inspiration to the family and others.

Andy’s a naturally kind person and always goes out of his way to help me, his mom and sister Michaela.

Andy, as parents, we have loved you and stood by you all these years as we strongly believed you that you deserve nothing but true love.

 

But we have always had it in mind someday you will have to spend the rest of your life with the person you cannot live without.

 

The more we got to know Amanda, the more we felt she was that special one.

 

Comments/your writing ideas:

 

Now, let me ask you this…Can you tell me what you got from reading that sample?

 

Ok…no worries if you can't figure it out. The speaker talked about

  • How proud he was of his son
  • Then, the speaker mentions his beautiful qualities
  • Your impressions of her when you first met her
  • How she impressed you as the years went by

 

One last thing... Don’t forget to welcome your daughter-in-law into your family

 

Before we go, I want you to get this. Make sure you end your speech well because last impressions count as well as the opening remarks.

 

From our example, John gave this piece of advice:

 

''Andy and Amanda, we look forward to watching you both build your lives together in love and harmony.

So, always put each other first so your love wins in the end. God bless you both.''

 

Comments/ your writing ideas:

 

Now, I want you to end with a bang and you can employ any of these strategies.

 

First, you might want to conclude with any of these best wishes:

  • Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness."

 

  • "Your wedding day will come and go, but may your love forever grow."

 

  • "Best wishes on this wonderful journey, as you build your new lives together."

 

  • "May the years ahead be filled with lasting joy.

 

  • Warmest wishes on your big day and as you start a new chapter of life and love together. May God grant you wisdom, blessings, and happiness!”

 

Second, you might want to end with a favorite quote

 

Below are some examples of love or marriage quotes you can use:

 

  • True love is rare, and it‟s the only thing that gives life real meaning-Antoine de Saint Exupery

 

  • The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now-Unknown

 

  • Marriage is the happiest prison in the world-Unknown

 

  • Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead-Oscar Wilde

 

Can you use any of that to come up with a piece of simple advice for the couple? I am sure you can. So go on and give it a try.  

 

If you are a Christian or a religious person, you may use this bible verse or one you have in mind to end your speech. Ephesians 5: 22-27(New International Version)

 

22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

 

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing[b] her by the washing with water through the word, 

 

27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.

 

From that verse, we can get the short example below

 

Mike, scripture admonishes all men to love their wives unconditionally just as Christ died and gave himself up for the church. So, in everything you do, love and cherish Amanda and love her and you will be a very happy man.

 

Also, you can make your conclusion memorable if you have a good voice because everyone loves music. If you want to use this approach, then I highly recommend you pick a tune that wedding guests can sing along to. 

 

 

You might also want to share your own experiences about marriage. Here are a couple of examples:

 

  • Marriage, as with all good things, requires patience, forgiveness, teamwork, and determination. It’s my hope and prayer that you both use each day to love each other unconditionally and grow together and to truly express your love. May your marriage be blessed with an abundance of love and prosperity. Congratulations on your marriage.

 

  • A man who has been married for half a century said this to me before I got married to your mom: ‘’ Dan…take life one day at a time. Marriage is one step, one day at a time. Most importantly, it is worth the effort you put into it.

 

  • So, as you build your lives together, make every day count as though you have met each other for the first time and you will make it through life no matter the difficulties you will face.

 

  • The road called marriage will be full of twists and turns, roadblocks…etc, but you can still press on by turning towards each other instead of away from each during times of difficulties and you will enjoy life together.

 

Moreover, if you still can’t fight the words for your conclusion, then you can simply make a toast. Once again, you can use any of these lines.

 

  • " May you never steal, lie, or cheat. But if you must steal, then steal away one's sorrow. And if you must lie, lie with me all the nights of my life. And if you must cheat, then please cheat death because I couldn't live a day without you." Leap Year (2010) 

 

  • May nothing separate the two of you, not even a violent hurricane

 

  • May the almighty God keep you in his safe arms and see you through those dark moments of your lives

 

  • May you find real peace and contentment in the little things God provides for you and may you and your children live fulfilled lives

 

  • May you live as long as you want and want nothing as long as you live

 

  • May your hand forever be clasped in friendship, and your fears forever clasped in love

 

  • May you always learn from the past, enjoy the present, and live for the future.

The ball is in your court, so please decide what you want to conclude with.
