A Groom shouldn't Say "Thank you" too Many Times
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
Traditionally a groom should find his wedding day to be the happiest day of his life. It can also, however, be the most worrying. Probably the most worrying thing of all for him is the prospect of giving a speech. For some unknown reason the thought of public speaking is enough to make anyone, even a groom, very nervous indeed.
A groom will, for instance, want to make his bride feel proud of him. A groom will also usually want to thank his parents for a lifetime of love and devotion. Added to that he will probably want to make a good impression on his new in-laws by thanking them for the privilege of marrying their daughter. A groom will also want to thank the guests for coming to his big day and for their lovely gifts. A list of such thank-you's is difficult to put together without sounding boring so it is very important that he should make his speech flow. However polite it may be a groom saying "Thank you" eighteen times won't make for a good speech. He might instead express his gratitude or acknowledge how much he is indebted. He could impress his in-laws by saying that his beautiful bride is a credit to them in every way and that he is a lucky man indeed to have such generous and welcoming in-laws. He could say that he hopes his marriage is as wonderful as that of his parents. There are different ways of saying "Thank you".
A groom's speech should be light-hearted as well as sincere because a wedding day is a happy occasion and people always like to laugh. So he might say a few words about his best man being more nervous than the groom himself and how he felt it was safer to carry his own ring. He might like to say that his cousin's singing in the church had made the ceremony really special. A wedding day is a day for family and friends and a good speech will include them all and make them feel they are an integral part of the big occasion. Above all he should always mention his love for the bride.
Finally, a groom won't have anything to worry about anything else if he ends his speech by saying a sincere thank you to the lovely bridesmaids.
