Short & Sweet Is Trendy

Wedding Speeches Are Going Shorter

Keeping it short and sweet doesn't mean stand up and say "Here's to the bride and groom, from everyone in the room" - and then sit down.

But short and sweet is a far cry from a 10 minute diatribe recounting stories of a 12 year-old groom, or a complete recount of the bride's jr high basketball championship season.

Fathers started this new trend... probably because they are sharing the limelight with mothers, too. But the Maid of Honors are getting right to the point - and they must have made a point because the long drawn out Best Man speeches are giving way to poignent & much shorter versions!

When you do a short and sweet speech, it doesn't leave a lot of room for extras - or for mistakes. To do it right, you can't afford to get it wrong!
