Maid of Honor Speech #5

I'm here because my very dear friend is getting married, and boy does she make a beautiful bride _____ has been a great friend in so many ways.

We've had a lot of fun together, and she's always been there for me when things were tough. Whether it was 3 in the morning or afternoon she remained loyal to me. She was there like no one else has been there for me besides my own mother.

Fun times, yes there were many. Who can forget "midnight apple bobbing?"
We've come to know one another so well, that we have an understanding that goes beyond words. When ____ proposed, ____ didn't really have to say much to make it clear to me that he was The One. All the signs were there... the special looks ... the way her face would light up when he was around. It all felt right as it happened, it all feels right today, and I know that the life they have ahead of them will feel just as right as it does today.

All in all, you two, I can see you both making a success of everything you do together, especially in your marriage. Oh yeah, with a couple exceptions: I don't know just how much progress _____ will be able to make in her efforts to teach _____ to play golf properly but at least there's hope with ___ around.

And I don't know how far _____ will get in persuading Jolene ways to spend less time talking on the phone. I don't know how he even finds the time to talk to her.

However, I know they have the foundation for a wonderful marriage: not just lovers, but lifelong friends as well. _____, I want to say thank you. You make things entertaining and exciting for the rest of us. Every one of us is proud to be your friend, and we'd do anything for you. You're a giving person, you're always there if we need you, and we just love you to bits. Eeven though you can sometimes drive us crazy.

So I'm just as glad as I can be that you're married, and I hope that your road goes on forever and your party never ends. Good luck to you and your wonderful man. Thank you for bringing color into our lives, and I hope there's plenty in yours for many, many years. Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to offer a toast: To _____ and _____, and a wonderful life together
