Speech time limit at weddings

[swirvenirvin 25]

This is the 2nd wedding in about 2 years where the speeches were just stupid long. LIke both mom and dads come up then best man, maid of honor, bride, groom.

 

Yeah we get it there are lots of inside stories to tell, but taking up 50 minutes at the wedding is not cool

As a general rule, if an ex is there ... as soon as you hear, "I remember when Alison and I were dating ..." cue the DJ for the first dance. "And here's Chris and Alison, for there first dance as husband and wife ... and to top it off, Alison's ex-boyfriend is writhing in emotional pain in the background."

 

If the ex cries and grovels ... that's gotta be worth every penny.

or you can say GFIAFP ala Darth Vader and all will be well !!!!

Huh?

 

Was that a joke? Cause it seemed like a joke for a second there.

 

I've read it like 5 times. Seems like a joke ... but it's not funny. That would be the most important part, of a joke. The funny part.

 

Just FYI.

On a serious note, I give good spur of the moment speeches.

 

Mighta ruined one, little sister, passed the mic to my brother and said, "And if you ever hurt her, God help you, you'll hafta deal with me, and this guy ..."

 

My brother is an ass.

 

I was the best man at my brothers wedding, I think I started my speech with, "Well, I was planning on writing a speech today, but I've spent most my time making crudité. I hope you enjoyed the celery. I also mixed up the onion soup mix, in the lowfat sour cream .... that's LOW FAT people! Dad?"

 

It's gotta be from the hip though. I can't rehearse stuff like that.

You think we can get a song and accompanying dance that would implement this and replace YMCA?

As a wedding DJ, I've done hundreds of receptions.

 

During the pre-wedding meeting, if the bride tells me that, besides the best man, her mom, dad, brother, ect. want to say a "few words", my eyes immediately go into :roll: mode. I know it's going to be a snoozer.

Steve Buscemi gives excellent wedding speeches.

I agree. Weddings are getting ridicuous. I can't blame it on us men. Women want every "important" moment of their life to be an eternity. 16th birthday, marriage, birthdays in general, valentines day, and the stupid anniversary. Weddings. We have to have everyone gather an hour beforehand. Have a ceremony for something. Watch a crappy homeade slide show by some sister or friend about the two getting married. Of course, the retarded slideshow always has country music playing to each picture or video. So you have to put up with the 10 to 20 minute of crappy music, stupid pictures, way too long, slide show dedication. Then the stupid religous leader of choice babbles on and on, usually about two people he has only met 2 or 3 times. Then, comes the x factor which could be anything. Does someone speak now? If you are lucky, get the two married maybe? Sing a song? Say a Prayer? etc. etc. Then they are finally married. Now, you have to stand and wait for 20 or 30 minutes while the couple work their way down the isles and say thanks, give a hug, smile, etc. etc. to everyone in the church. That is a fun wait. After that is done, everyone has to choose a side and get some rice, or bubbles for the new "hip" people, and wait on the newly married couple to walk out. Then you throw rice in the air, or blow bubbles, and pretend you are so happy that this retarded act makes you happy. After the wedding, then we have to go through the hour and one half pre-game ceremony at the reception. Again, some sister or cousin is in charge of something and that has to be mentioned first off. Thank you. Yes, you do exist. Then the Best man speaks, then the bridesmaid who always takes forever and makes half the speech about her. After that, one or both fathers, maybe both mothers will speak. Then you have the married couple dance, then the father dances with his daughter, then the mother dances with her son. Then, finally, everyone can somewhat party, hopefully anyway. But, throughtout the night, something else stupid will be going on at some point. Pay a dollar to dance with the bride, win a TV via raffle ticket, etc. etc. Weddings Suck the Big One.
