Your Personality – The best wedding speech reflects a lot of heart as well as the personality of the speaker. If you’re funny, make it humorous. If you’re naturally sentimental, a touching and tear-jerking speech will be perfect. Follow Shakespeare’s advice on this one and “to thine own self be true.”

Timing – You’re going to want to keep your speech as short as possible while saying everything you want to say. This can sometimes mean cutting out stories, fluff, or filler and just getting straight to the good stuff. Read over your speech and if it isn’t absolutely necessary, cut it.

Read it Out Loud – Reading your speech out loud several times will not only allow you to memorize it, but it can alert you if any part of it sounds silly, forced, incorrect, etc. It also gives you the chance to time yourself to see just how long the speech really is.
