Wedding Speech Planner: Speech Workbook & Cue Cards
Asked to give a wedding speech? This 23-page A4 workbook from Fernbrook Guides helps you go from a blank page to a speech you feel ready to give, whether you are the best man or best woman, the maid of honour, a parent or host, the groom, the bride or the couple speaking together.
It starts with the plan: who speaks, in what order and for how long, with a speeches running order and a speech length calculator (a starting point of 130 words a minute, a worked example and a page to time your own pace). Then you gather material with a 12-question story finder and a story bank that scores each story for warmth and kindness. Four speech blueprints (best man or best woman; maid of honour or friend; parent or host; groom, bride or couple) give a clear shape with suggested timings. A thank-you list builder, a names and pronunciation sheet, opening and closing ideas and a toast page come next, then a kindness check of what to leave out. After that there are two draft pages, an edit and polish checklist, six cut-out cue cards, a rehearsal tracker with delivery reminders, an on-the-day checklist, a keepsake copy to hand to the couple, and notes.
All prompts and example lines are original Fernbrook Guides text, with no borrowed jokes or quotes. Calm teal and gold design; instant download; print as many copies as you need for personal use.
