How weddings have changed on the decades! From a handful to 400-500 invited guests; one-two to six-eight wedding ceremony members; a fairly easy wedding car to expensive and enormous wedding cars; three course meals to 6 course meals; 1 to 3 live bands; simple attire to colorful and flamboyant dresses, suits and attire and off-the-cuff to well-prepared wedding speeches.
These are the second, wedding speeches continue to be an important part of a wedding and guests do look ahead to hearing them, talking about them before, during and indeed after they’ve been delivered.
We are all aware of wedding speeches delivered before the meal, throughout the meal after your food, yet it’s of a strong opinion how the wedding speeches should be delivered following the meal. I know that for many wedding ceremony speakers i.e. Father of the Bride Speech, Father in the Groom Speech, Bride Speech, Groom Speech and Bestman Speech (5 main speakers), they will would rather hold the wedding speeches before the meal, for them to enjoy their meal (some of them are spending money for it!). However, is going on the invited guests and exactly how most of them (as well as wedding ceremony venue staff) would prefer the wedding ceremony speeches to get delivered following your meal for many reasons, a few of which include:
The invited guests are already fed and watered and are not paying attention to wedding speeches on an empty stomach (at least of food, which will be so prior to the meal, though weddings today do provide light snacks upon arrival in the wedding venue)
Food might be cooked and served in the agreed time (introduce the marriage speeches ahead of the meal along with their can be quite a delay of Quarter-hour to at least one.5 hours, driving your kitchen staff crazy trying to keep food freshly cooked, presentable and edible)
Wedding ceremony speeches act as the transition in the meal towards the dancing (broke happening following your meal, everyone is expecting ‘a few words’ to be shared about the Bride & Groom then they are fully aware they can get up, move about, have a break, go for a walk, go to the bar…)
It’s a challenge for moms and dads of the Bride & Groom to communicate in public, since most of them may not be used from it. So, they could, whenever they so wished, speak before the / their meal.
There should still be some type of formal speech(es) following your meal…
