My mother already asked me what I will say in the speech....clearly someone wants to be thanked.

My husband made one at ours-- we were both standing there together but he did the talking... thank goodness!!

Here is a link to my wedding video by pennylane-- if you click on #1 it shows a snippet of our speech-- just for the first few seconds...

Wedding Video

At some other wedding's we've been to the father of the bride has made a speech, but since we paid for our wedding ourselves we thought it was appropriate to make one ourselves.

Dh just said a few nice things, thanked everyone for coming and pretty much just said let's get this party started!

i just read for the first time yesterday that it is 'proper etiquette' for the bride & groom to say a thank you speech at the wedding. i am considering doing it. i figured right after the cake cutting we can just say a quick thank you to our guest for being with us on our day.

I am not making a speech. The thought didn't even cross my mind. I don't think my guest are going to care what I have to say, they are just going to want to dance and have a good time.

We didn't make any speech.

I have a feelings the hours upon hours I will spend writing thank you cards will be enough.

I went to a wedding where both the bride and groom made a thank you speech and they went on forever- people were so tired some the end of the night i dont think anyone was listening to them.

But like someone else said- all those thank you cards you write out should be enough!

I'm not doing a speech.

My thank you cards are thanks enough. It's bad enough I have to dance in front of people with just my fiance.

I am not public speaking as well - even if it is just friends and family - there is a lot of them!!!
