Tonight I have finished my wedding speech, timed at a respectable 6 minutes give or take. I've thanked those needing thanked etc. and thrown in a few jokes along the way. Not bad, but the proof will be in the delivery on the day!
It has really hit home now that in under 3 weeks I will be a married man! Before this I just got on with it as we have been engaged for over 2 years now and have been a couple for over 8 so it didn't really feel like anything significant was about to change. I know a few people of have only been in a relationship for a couple of years and got married within a year of engagement. We both decided to plan the wedding to the finest detail so that it is meets every expectation of our own ideal wedding, so we took our time in the preparations.
Weddings are a popular thing these days. When we booked the reception a good 2 years before we planned to have the wedding, every Saturday at the venue was booked up until the end of 2010! Luckily we wanted a Thursday wedding anyway!
Deciding the music for the evening reception was fun. What the heck is the Ska genre?! We don't have our own song like a lot of couples, mainly because of our differing tastes in music, so we settled on a beautiful less known track by a sensational vocalist! Its beautiful :) Choosing music reminded me of my DJing days and I really want to get back into it but that will be pricey! For those interested I had a Funky House mix played on Cool FM in 2004 so I wasn't bad ;-)
