Recommended: Heartfelt wedding speech

Two years ago, I would not be able to stand up here and talk in front of all of you. *Chuckle* who am I kidding I wouldn't have had the guts to come up here one year ago. Let alone two. Just the fact that I'm able to be up here and not throw up is a miracle and thanks to that miracle, all of you have to sit there and suffer through my speech when you'd rather be at home sleeping in.

Something that really bothered me while writing this speech is that when I asked someone for advice, they told me that it didn't matter what I said, that no one would care anyway. I don't think they meant it as a bad thing, but I couldn't help but think: What's the point in writing a speech that no one will bother to remember?

That got me thinking even more.

    Humorous Wedding Speech by the Best Man When Daniel came to me and asked me to be his best man, it was a great honour but, when I looked at all the duties required of me, I felt he’d be better off choosing someone else. Then he offered me a fifty, but I told him that it wasn’t a decision that money could change. So then he offered me a hundred. Anyway, good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - My name is Rob and it’s my pleasure to be Daniel’s best man today.

  • Reflection Of Kevin's Informative Speech On The World Cup

    1055 Words  | 3 Pages

    Perhaps, also wondering if it actually will be informative for an individual can be something very intimidating. Kevin chose to talk about the World cup, something that has never brought much entertainment to me. The way that Kevin was talking, with so much passion shown to his audience caught my attention, not to mention the humor he used along with it. Presenting a speech to the class is as if one was having an ongoing conversation with strangers and letting them know why the topic brings so much interest to you. Not to mention, one must seem into it to not lose the audience interest, which is what Kevin did. Kevin used hand gestures letting the audience or perhaps myself know that he was actually meaning what he was

  • Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death Speech

    To take something away from this speech would be to have a dream and present it to people in the same way you believe in it, this worked a lot better rather than speaking about a plan and presenting it to people. For if you tell people a plan they are not invested in you, they would possibly be more invested if you told them your dream and knowledge as you develop your credibility with them.

    I really don’t like to give speeches, especially in front of all my friends, but I knew that once I walked into my 2nd period advanced English class, I would have to. I knew that what was about to come after I was finished reading it, was not going to be pretty. I could imagine that what I was about to read would stick with me for the rest of my high school career at Nelsonville-York high school with all of my friends teasing me about it, and my teacher, Mrs. Maria , teaching all of her future freshman classes of what not to write about. As I saw all of this happening, I knew I had to prepare to face the consequences that would come when I was finished. Little did I know that this speech was going to be a huge turning point of my high school career, and affect the way I give speeches and how I talk to people.

  • Ken Robinson's Do Schools Kill Creativity?

    1468 Words  | 3 Pages

    TED talks are great examples of well executed speeches with important messages. In 2006, Ken Robinson gave a speech titled 'Do schools kill creativity?' in which he talks about how the education system is geared towards maximizing the industrial needs and essentially punishes the creativity in students. In 2015, Celeste Headlee revealed the '10 ways to have a better conversation' in her speech. Essentially, the main message of her speech is that most are more interested in themselves than others when they are having a conversation, which can be resolved mostly by listening and paying attention. These two TED talks exhibit great examples of the skills needed for public speaking and showed great organization in their speeches.

    Ok, its 12:15 and I just walked into my house from seeing a movie with three of my best friends and I have to write this speech. A speech that’s suppose to inspire all of you, and tell you how the future has so much to hold for the class of 2015, how the possibilities are endless. Right now I’m probably standing in the front of the class and supposed to be addressing all of you as “fellow graduates, or to the class of 15’”. But that’s not what I’m going to do. I put this off as I do with the majority of my work thinking I would just write something everyone expects to hear, but instead I wrote this.
