Toasted Speeches

agnieszka.biskup asked:


Hi my name is Agnes and I’ve always wanted to be an actress. My parents say I actually have a potencial to become an actress because Im quite funny. I love to act out in front of my friends and family, make them laugh, make jokes etc, but unfortunately when it comes to public speeches in school, I get so nervous, I start to sweat and sometimes even mix up all the stuff I was supposed to say/read but if that happens I just read on!!! My mam says that maybe as I’m getting older this kind of ’shyness’ will dissapear, I hope so!
So she suggested that maybe I would like to try out acting on stage, she want’s me to sign up to some kind of Drama Classes. I think that it is really a good idea, in that way I could make sure if Acting is really the thing I want to do!She also says that the actors I see on TV also had to PRACTICE, sometimes for long years to become so good at acting, she says thatyou don’t get to be a famous actor/actress JUST LIKE THAT! I am all stressed out now because of mu J.C.(Junior Certificate) which I will be writing next June. Only after J.C. I can attend Drama lessons because now I have to study. Can anyone please give me some advices about what should I do to stop getting so stressed when lots of people are staring at me? Some people say it has to do with me not being confident enough.
I hope, and I am praying, that it will pass as I get older, because I really intend to become an Actress and later on move into New York or Los Angeles. I’ve always wanted to live in New York! One of my favourite actors lives there (Douglas Anthony Hutchison). Well at least that’s what I read about him on the internet!! So if you have any advice you could give me please e-mail to: aggie.biscuits@hotmail.com . Thanks a million! Agnes.

Here are five essential tips to consider when writing your best man speech:

1. Make sure that your best man speech is prepared several weeks before the day of the wedding.

2. Practice reading your speech a few times before finally performing it at the wedding reception. Read right through to a couple of friends before the big day.

3. Keep it to around five minutes in length.

4. Be careful not to offend anyone in your speech.

5. Make a copy of your speech in case you lose the original.

At a wedding the best man speech is a time-honoured tradition when he can tell all those wonderful and funny stories, even bring a tear to the best man’s eye, but it can also be a frightful experience especially if the best man really does not like speaking in public.

However, giving the speech is probably the easy part, delivering the speech is more of a talent and one of the best ways to learn about the delivering is by watching others ‘perform’. But there really is no need to fret, it’s a skill that can easily be learnt.

The best man speech is the perfect way to put the icing on the cake for the bride and groom on their wedding day and to share with everyone present how you came to be friends.

The speech can be made more interesting by adding some inspirational quotes or a short story and should also carry a message of congratulations.

Remember that the wedding day is a family occasion, so keep any humour or one-liners clean, also keeping any dubious language out of your speech is a good idea, remember a lot of weddings these days are video taped, you don’t want to look a prat for all time!

Give yourself at least one month to start slowly preparing by writing down notes on what you want to cover in your speech.

You owe it to the bride and groom, their families, and yourself, to present the best speech you possibly can.

Length of the best man speech is another important consideration. The ideal speech should be between two and seven minutes. Keep the speech short and sweet, and to the point, don’t waffle on.

A sense of humour and the ability, or at least the nerve, to get up in front of a room full of people and give a speech loud and clear is your objective.

Make sure if you are going to drink alcohol to take it easy until after the best man speech is over and you are not in the spotlight, it will be obvious if you get too drunk, you’ll slur your words or sway around.

People remember only a few things about a wedding; the way the bride looks, the ceremony and lastly the wedding speeches. The best man speech is a tradition at every wedding, and like all traditions, it has developed a set of rules and standards that are expected of anyone giving the speech.

If you aren’t naturally a funny man, then you can find some funny speeches or quotes in books, the Internet, friends and family.

If the standard of your jokes are along the lines of: ‘The wedding was a moving affair, so much so, even the wedding cake was in tiers’ then you probably won’t reach the required standard on your own!

Most people can’t deliver a successful speech without some help and assistance and one of the best places to get it these days is online, and, for a very modest fee Dan Stevens, author of ‘Best Man Speeches’ can help.

I need a one minute commercial, it can be funny or serious, but I’d like to do a little of both. I also need a slogan and some ideas for a speech that high-schoolers will actually pay attention to. I’d like to use our fight song or Alma Mater in the commercial, so anything that would fit that. I’m running for VP. Any ideas are appreciated.
