Cheating, heroin abusing, liars with estranged fathers usually don't get the type of blessing necessary to have a prospective father in law finance a grandiose reception so I'm sure the wait staff of whatever T.G.I. FRiDAY'S you'll end up in have heard more than their share of drunken bride's maids' poorly timed, spring break stories.
You also seem to be overlooking how (if you've judged this guy correctly) the best man's speech will probably be either a 15 minute string of ums, a 30 minute rundown of the groom's past lays, or dodged completely and substituted with a jovial toast from a parent.
I'm pretty sure your speech is not going to be the black cloud over this wedding.
My advice to you: Consider picking a maid of honor who will not view YOUR wedding day as all about her.
when I needed to know how to write my own Maid Of Honor Speech, I needed all the help I could get. I had waited until the last minute to prepare my speech and was desperate for some advice.
ReplyDeleteI decided to share what I learned with you. And support all of Maid and Matron’s Of Honors to be to hopefully help you in preparing your wedding speech.
Regd,
Doug
