Wedding Speech Delivered by the Groom

I was really, really nervous about standing up here and speaking.

I did prepare a few lines for today and

having snorted them I now feel absolutely fine.

I did have a great speech worked out for you today, but as I am now married,

my wife has told me what to say instead.

I'd like to start by thanking you all on behalf of my wife and I being here

with us today, especially those who have travelled some distance to be here.

We would also like to thank you all very much for your cards, kind thoughts

and wonderful presents. I was afraid that putting a dinner service on the

wedding list was not such a good idea, when I discussed it with Mary I

suggested that we should get a dishwasher, but she told me not to worry ,

and that she was going to get one when we got married, Me!

In all seriousness when Mary and I where planning this wedding we had

considered getting married abroad, however with a bit of gentle persuasion

from June(Bride's mom) consisting of her tightly gripped fist and my wedding

tackle, we decided to give it a miss.

Somebody once asked me when Adam & Eve were together how did we know that

they lived in paradise? well in view of the fact that my new Mother-in-Law

is so close, I don't want to say much, other than this- Adam had no

Mother-in-law, that's how we know he lived in paradise.

But seriously I would like to thank June for all her...

... middle of paper ...

...e is that it was Berlin's the pub, Cairo Jax

the nightclub, Iceland the freezer shop and Texas the DIY store.

Finally

I asked Mary's mom in the Church, how did Mary look in her wedding dress,

she said she looked wonderful, but that didn't prepare me enough for when I

saw her walk down the aisle. I was overwhelmed to say the least by how

beautiful Mary looks today.

So, to my wife, my bride and joy – thank you for everything you have done and

making me the happiest man alive. you know everything about me and love me

just the same, I have my faults, yet you still agreed to marry me. I am

extremely lucky today to be the one to marry you - and I hope this is the

start of many happy years together.
