Heres the speech for my sisters wedding, which is taking place on the 16th of July. Can you guys let me know what you think? The length isnt a problem but I think I can improove it. Thanks for your help!
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen,
It is very nice to see everyone gathered here for this blessed occasion.
There is something special about watching someone you value deeply find his or her one true love. Christine is my sister, and she definitely fills this category. Christine has an amazing passion for life for the people she chooses to share it with. While growing up together the majority of sisters share a great deal-not always willingly mind you. Those of you whom have a same sex sibling may relate to the struggle one faces such as “borrowing” jewelry, money, and clothes. Arguing about which Backstreet Boy was hotter, or trying to start a band and dreaming of making it big. Lest I forget the dreaded constant “I’m telling mom!!” Surprisingly, Christine and I both survived those bitter battles to save our belongings from the evil grasp of each other’s hands.
I have very fond memories of Christine and I. Two that I am particularly fond of are pretending to pick berries off of our mother’s houseplants to make invisible salads. Or the time she came running to me claiming she had walked on air!
And when she first brought Max over to meet our family. She glowed with pride. I have never seen a better couple that compliments each other so well. You two complete the pieces of the mold that life throws our way.
Christine, you look so beautiful. I love you. Always have and always will. Life often throws us many paths for us to choose to walk down on. Today, you are starting a new journey on a new path in life as a wife and one day-a mother. But wife and mother aside, you will always be my sister. I never told you how much I thank you for supporting me, and giving me a voice when I could not speak. Thank you for every memory, every tear and every laugh. I look forward to sharing more.
Max, I am very pleased to finally be able to open my arms to you and embrace you as a brother and as the man who completes my sister. You have brought her much happiness and I trust in you that you will continue to do so. You are a good man and I wouldn’t want anyone else to be with my sister. I love you too. And remember, every man needs a wife because something’s things go wrong and you can’t always blame everything on the government, eh?
Before I end my speech I would like to read a poem:
A gentle word like a spark of light,
Illuminates the soul
And as each sound grows deeper,
It is love that makes us whole.
There is no corner, no nook, nor dark place
That love cannot fill,
And when the world starts causing waves,
It is the embrace of a loved one that makes them still.
Yes, it always speaks to us,
In sweet honesty and truth,
The caring heart keeps out the rain,
But it is love,
Which builds the ultimate roof.
As you join together this blessed day,
Supporting each other in your life,
May you grow together in compassion, happiness and love,
As newlyweds---husband and wife.
My new brother Max Fuentes, My beautiful sister Christine,
Your union gives us greatest pride.
Good health! Great wealth! And a lasting line!
On your union, may Gods glory shine.
Cheers to the happy couple!
Congratulations!
