Father of the Groom Speech

Father of the Groom Speech


The father of the groom speech is in the majority of cases not seen as one of the prime speeches at a wedding. No doubt the best man speech or even the father of the bride speech can be seen as a given speech, but nowadays the father of the groom and his delivery of the speech are seen as equally important. This speech gives the father a chance to greet the bride's family and welcome his son's wife in to their family. It is also crucial to emphasize that you will always be there for them in times of need. This speech should be delivered with an element of humor and also placing a slight emphasis on serious talk.

I will admit it is not that easy to deliver a speech after such ones like the best man speech where the guests will all be falling off their chairs in laughter or even leaving some in disgust. This speech is designed to make guest laugh and give an insight in to the groom's life and some of the mischief they have got up to in their past. Sometimes a little too much can be revealed. Then not to forget is the bride's father who steps up to give his speech and this in the majority of cases is where things can get soppy.

You need to prepare well for your delivery as there is nothing worse than getting up there and not having a clue what to say. Remember you do not need to get too personal in yours.

So how should I start?

Greet the bride's family and welcome her in to yours. Tell her she looks fabulous and that you are sure her and your son will be happy together. Her family will love you for this. Something many people do not do is add a story of their son from his childhood. These usually go down really well. Make sure you do at least one of these. If it is something that will be embarrassing then that is perfect. Just make sure not to mention a girl that he was with when he was younger, you do not want to start anything controversial. Make sure you give some advice to the newly married couple and draw from your own experience if you like. This will make your advice that little bit more personal. This is the perfect place to add a joke. It could be anything like remember son when a womans wrong always pretend she's right.

Finally, do not make the father of the groom speech too long, you don't want to bore people but rather give advice, add some humor and then finish and wish them the best of luck with their marriage.
