Finding the words to use can be difficult, but before you begin, take a few moments to read the Golden Rules of Speechmaking as set out below:
Speeches can be difficult, especially if you find that you and words are not on the best of terms, and you haven’t put pen to paper for a while, but there are some things that if taken into consideration are a dead cert to go down well.
Choose your wording carefully, think about language that will relate your stories to the entire audience, from Great Gran in the corner, who’d me lost at the mention of ‘Facebook’ to the 9 year old Flower girl who’d turn to tugging on mums sleeve wanting to know who ‘John Major’ is. Possibly the most commonly flaunted rule, no swearing or the use of any, let’s say x-rated material. Be natural, it’s no good being remembered as the class clown at high school only to get up there and try to impress with a few words, let’s face it even you don’t understand. Stick to the short and sweet stories, Uncle Joe will fall asleep before the nights out anyway he doesn’t need your help. Get it structured, make sure it’s going somewhere, the best way to go is usually, pre-meeting each other, once together, and now, a big finish is always the way to go. Never laugh at your own jokes, if Lee Evans doesn’t do it it’s a no for you too. Finally, stand up, smile, and don’t put too much pressure a lot of pressure on yourself, you want to look like your enjoying yourself not laying eggs.
