- BRIDE WEDDING SPEECHES For most people, giving a speech – any speech, for any occasion – is
pretty big news.
Statistics show that public speaking consistently ranks in
the top 3 major phobias for the average American (and incidentally,
those same statistics would also indicate that the average American is
more afraid of making a speech than they are of death -!)
Even someone who considers themselves reasonably well practiced at
making speeches willoften quail from the very idea of making a speech
at someone’s wedding.
Wedding speeches are the very epitome of
what’s terrifying about public speaking: not only do you have to cater for
an extremely diverse audience, but the weight of expectation on you to
improve the day even more is positively staggering.
So imagine all this from the perspective of the bride -! As the focus of the
day, the pressure’s on to give a speech that’s warm, witty,personal,
meaningful, and that complements her position as the queen of the day.
