Father Of The Bride Speech - Wedding Speech
For any parent, witnessing his or her daughter get married is a dream come true. But then again, it also marks the painful and quite difficult step of entrusting their daughter to another person with the hope that this man will love and take care of their child the same way they did. You may not always see it in their faces, but the people who are happiest during a wedding day, apart from the bride and the groom, are the parents of both the newly weds. With that being said, here is an example of a father of the bride speech.
As the father of the bride, you have to welcome the guests and then welcome the groom to his new family. Do not forget to thank the guests – family, relatives, and friends – as well as the people who helped and assisted with the wedding preparations. Here's a good line that you can use for your father of the bride wedding speech: "Good afternoon, everyone! For those of you who may be wondering who I am, I am the proud father of the bride."
"I am privileged to stand here in front of all of you to welcome you in this celebration. Also, there is this one other thing that I ought to do today. To our family, friends, and relatives, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for being here. Thank you for taking the time to join us here as we witness my son and daughter-in-law's love for each other made stronger in the bond of marriage."
"Anyway, it is the dream of almost any parent to see his or her child get married. But today, as this dream becomes a reality for me and for my lovely wife, I feel a mixture of emotions. While my happiness cannot be fathomed, I cannot deny the sorrow that threatens to rise above the surface. I'm sure that all fathers here will understand how difficult it is to let your little girl go. But nevertheless, today is one of the proudest moments of my life."
"It seems only yesterday when my daughter used to ask me to read her a fairy tale book before bedtime, or when she used to count on me to drive her to her best friend's house so that they can have their little sleepovers. Time passes by quickly. From a sweet kid, she turned out to be a wonderful young lady. Congratulations on your wedding day, my dear daughter! And congratulations to my son-in-law as well."
