I whole heartedly and without reservation recommend your wedding speech for you speech pack to every father of the bride.

The weeks leading up to the wedding I kept telling myself that I would compose my speech tomorrow. It got down to that the next tomorrow was the actual wedding day, I turned to the internet for help and found your website.

The speech pack I received was a great source of comfort and it allowed me to organize my thoughts and blend them with some of the examples you supplied.

"Reading through the speech pack, my confidence starts to build up and realized that construction of the speech is not as bad as first thought"

It was a long day but fortunately, everything went well as planned.

We booked two rooms in Westin Hotel in the center of Sydney where we did the photo shoots starting from 1.00 pm for the bridal party and later the family. At 3.00 pm, a stretched limo took the bridal party to a secluded area called La Perouse for further photo shoots.

At 6.00 pm I walked with my daughter, Bonita, up the stairs into the reception at The Grand Roxy where the ceremony began.

It was after the main course when the formality started with me giving the first speech. It took less than ten minutes with pauses for clapping and laugher along the way. That was followed by speeches given by the father of the groom, 2 bridesmaids, 2 Groomsmen, 2 best friends, the Groom and finally the Bride.

During dessert time and while we were dancing, guests came up to me and congratulated me for delivering the best speech of the evening. I do believe they said that because I had done a good job, having learnt from FOTB4U speech pack, instead of just a courtesy call.

I would, therefore, strongly recommend to anyone who needs to make a wedding speech, especially if you are father of the bride, to refer to the FOTB4U speech pack. It gave plenty of examples/templates that would suit any situation. All you have to do is to look at your own circumstances and find the most appropriate template to match them. Or you may even tailor made your own format based on the guidelines given by the speech pack.

Reading through the speech pack, my confidence starts to build up and realized that construction of the speech is not as bad as first thought. It eases the fear that is mounting high on the background. But the biggest benefit I gained was to proudly say I’ve done it, even though I have never spoken openly to over 100 people before.

The speech pack helped me to draft my speech. Bit by bit, they came into shape, then modifications after modifications and finally finished. I practiced by reading it aloud in front of the mirror until it comes out naturally. I also tried it on the family members. Practice makes perfect and on the big day, I was not nervous at all in delivering the speech. I don’t mind doing it again but unfortunately or fortunately, I have only one daughter to give away.

By buying a copy of the Wedding Speech4U speech pack, one can expect to learn, within a relatively short period of time, the basic technique in drafting and delivering the wedding speech required. The joy of achievement after delivering the speech would far outweigh the cost of the speech pack by a thousand folds

"weddingspeech4u saved me on my daughter's big day"

"weddingspeech4u" saved me on my daughter's big day, November 25, 2006. For a year before her wedding, I really wanted to (and knew I should) stand up & give a speech for my daughter and her new husband, but I was scared, and didn't really have any speech prepared that I really felt comfortable with. I did have some ideas rolling around in my head, but I didn't really know how to put them together in a speech, if it was appropriate, and complete, and cover all of the areas that I should on that special day for her.

After reading your book: “ Father of the Bride Speeches”, including the numerous example speeches, was able to put my ideas down on paper in proper order, and added the missing parts to make a very good, amusing and most of all heartfelt speech that was loved by all.

After the speech was over & I sat down, several family members and friends (including the groom’s parents and grand mother) came to me to say how much they loved it, some even said they were in tears laughing at the humorous parts and brought to tears at other parts. One person (my brother) even asked if I wrote the speech myself, or had a professional speech writer write it for me!

I did it! , with your help, and felt comfortable standing up & doing it!

THANKS!

You wanted to have an audio testimonial to let you know how I went with the wedding speech. It was just a tremendous opportunity to give an understanding and… to be able to structure my speech in a manner that was going to be meaningful and helpful and interesting. It did exactly that. My daughter just loved the speech, the people clapped, it was laughter and I can tell you it would not have happened without that opportunity to have that guidance and direction from that. It was amazing. I never had an experience like that before and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without that help that I got from you. I just thank you so much for the direction and the clearness and the clarity with which I was able to structure my speech on the day.

Thank you. Bye.

I delivered the speech on Sept 16-06 and have had nothing but RAVE reviews (unusual for me!).'

Keep up the good work and thanks again.
