Speech by Lorenza

I was maid of honour at my friend''s wedding last Friday, the bride is American and the groom Italian... Anyway, I made my speech and I decided to send it to you in case it can help...

Speech Type: Maid of honour/Best woman
Speech Creator: Lorenza
Speech Date: Jul2007
First of all I want to thank you all for being here today because this is a very special day as we celebrate the union between two marvellous people, my dear friend … and …, who I have met thanks to my friendship with … .

Matrimony is for certain a very important, but necessary, step in our life, it's the path that … and … are going to take together with the Lord, who will be their strength and guidance throughout their life.

And for this reason, it's an enormous joy and honour to celebrate the wedding together with … and …, and their families and friends.

To tell the truth, I was a bit surprised when … asked me to be her maid of honour and to be near her in this important day, because we haven't known each other for long but you can't say how deep a relationship is according to the length of time two people know each other but what is most important, is the quality of the relationship and the importance and value we give to friendship.

During the last few months, I have learnt to know … better than I used to and …, who I didn't know at all before, and I feel very lucky to be part of their lives.

Love between … and … is unique, as it is unique the love they share with their families and friends and this, together with humility, compassion and unselfishness which are also the principles of Christianity, makes them two extraordinary people.

That's why I will never thank the Lord enough for this gift, for this great friendship.

Anyway, I don't want you to get bored… so I just wanted to wish … and … a happy life together, full of love, health and tranquillity… and children!!!

To … and …!!!!
