I found that writing a father of the groom speech was really hard and required me to get some help online. I had some ideas as I'm sure you do, But it was just putting it all together that I struggled with. The hardest part of a father of the groom speech is starting it. So a little tip to get around this would be start in the middle or start at the end. Write down all your ideas on a piece of paper and then start putting them in order. Then you will have an idea of what you are missing and need to add. To help you will this process I am going to tell you what I think should be in a father of the groom wedding speech. This formula worked wonders for me so I am sure that it will help you write a cracking speech for your son's wedding.
OK when you start your speech you need to make sure you get everyone's attention. You can do this by telling a snappy joke or by using a quote from a famous and popular person. This will grab everyone's attention and they will focus on you. Now you need to introduce yourself. I know a lot of your guests will know who you are but you need to consider that some of the bride's relatives will not know you that well. From here you would go on to welcome everyone and thank them all for coming and making the wedding day an amazing occasion. Now comes the hardest part of the speech which will require you to think a little about what you need to say.
This is the part I found hard since I had so many good and funny experiences with my son. It was hard to pick the best ones that meet the right criteria. So basically you need to share stories or experiences that you have shared with your son that show the father son bond. I am sure you have many also. But before you choose which ones to use try to stick to this criteria. They can be funny or meaningful stories and experiences. Funny tends to work best but if they are short stories you can try getting in a more emotional story too. You need to avoid certain stories that relate to your sons ex wives or sex life. This may be very appealing but you do not want to embarrass you son. In fact it's best not to embarrass anyone, but if you do feel the need to do so then you can always embarrass yourself.
Now you are getting towards the finish. Remember to take your time with the stories and enjoy yourself. Trust me it will make your speech sound better too. It's always nice to make a few loving complements to your new daughter in law. Thank her for being so good for you son and making him a happy man. You can also make a comment on how beautiful she is. This will instant win over her family and assure them that you are happy with the marriage.
After you have done that it's time to pass on some advice to your son, you can give him marriage advice of you are comfortable to do so. Or you can give him some straight up life advice. That is up to you. You should also pass on your blessing to the marriage and wish them a happy future together. Once again you can now thank and welcome everyone and invite them to carry on partying and celebrating the wedding.
