A-Z Guide to your Perfect Wedding: S is for…

SPEECHES

Traditionally it’s the men who give a speech, those being the Father of the Bride, the Groom and the Best Man but that’s not to say the Bride can’t give one too if she feels she would like to. Typically the Father’s speech is one of sentiment about his beloved daughter as she grew up and kind words about her new husband and then it’s the Grooms chance to compliment his new wife, thank all the guests and present the bridal party with thank you gifts. It then falls upon the Best Man to unleash his inner comedian and (usually) embarrass the groom in a way that is funny but without being too offensive (no easy feat!) – remembering that there is likely to be grandparents and small children present.

Other S’s to consider: Save the Date – See Invitations. Sweet Cart/Bar – Another popular item that many couples feature at the evening reception as lets face it children and adults alike love a little sweet treat. There are lots of options here from creating your own sweet buffet to full on vintage carts. Check out our Sweets selection here.
