Even if you are great at impromptu deliveries, the MOH speech isn’t one that should be left to the last minute. Take some time before the wedding and write out your thoughts and feelings. If it helps, consider this layout for your speech:
Intro: Not everyone may recognize who you are to the bride. So, share your name and a quick description of who, or what you to the bride (the sister, best friend, etc.)
Thank you: Consider expressing how excited or thrilled you are for being at the wedding. Maybe share a thank you to the bride and groom for having you and/or inviting everyone to share their special day.
Something special: This is a good time to share a personal touch such as a memory, a joke or a special feeling you have about the bride and groom. Try to select something that may be inspiring and entertaining to the crowd.
Words of advice: Share a few words of advice for their future together. Quotes or entertaining poems are great in this
