When it comes to the speeches on the big day, sometimes you need to consider the bride and maid of honor speeches together.

For me and the bride, we didn’t want to spoil the surprise by writing out speeches together. But we did think that it might be a good idea to have a chat and figure out the direction we wanted our wedding speeches to go in.

Deciding on Who Says What

When it comes to any kind of speech, whether the brides wedding speeches or the groom wedding speech, it can help to get your stories straight and make sure that every single speech isn’t repeating the other. This is why discussing bride and maid of honor wedding speech ideas with your other half is a good idea.

Not all bride and maid of honor will do separate speeches. Perhaps only one of you is doing a speech, or maybe you even want to address it together! If you still haven’t decided then I recommend you have a good discussion before moving onto the next steps.

Coming Up With the Perfect Speeches

Once you’ve decided it’s a good idea to talk to the bride and ask whether she’s preparing a speech herself. Chances are that you will both have a few of the same ideas.

One option is to decide to cover different topics. Or the same topics like how the bride and groom got together – but from different points of view. This can make for exciting, funny, yet still poignant maid of honor wedding speeches that your guests will love!

Finding bride and maid of honor wedding speech ideas together isn’t always done, but I think sharing some ideas – while still keeping the speeches private until the big day – can be really inspiration. Better still, check out some speech examples to really help your speech be what you want it to be!
