Lighten up the Mood with One Liners in your Wedding Reception Speech
It can be really nerve wrecking when you are part of the wedding entourage especially if you are asked to make your own wedding reception speech. As much as you’d like to express your feelings and deliver your message clearly for the newlyweds, doing this in front of hundreds or even thousands of wedding reception guests give you sweaty palms and faster heart beat. Even if you have been involved and helping since before the couple sent out the wedding invitation, the responsibility of delivering a speech can be more than a little intimidating.
You would want to avoid the unpleasant racing heart beat scenario, wouldn’t you? Well, you can’t deliver a good wedding reception speech if you feel nervous anyway. In order to eliminate this kind of situation, you should lighten up the mood in the wedding reception by cracking up a joke or two. Well, you can choose from various wedding jokes we have prepared for you or you can make your own joke to loosen up the tension a bit.
Here are some sample ideas for your one liner joke:
1. Women really have only two choices in life. You can stay single and THINK you’re miserable or you can get married and WISH you were dead.
2. Here’s what people say BEFORE marriage: “Roses are red, the skies are blue, you are beautiful and I love you.” AFTER marriage: “Roses are dead, I am blue, you’re my headache, and one day I’ll leave you.”
3. Marriage is like a casino. You go in all excited and optimistic; you stumble out broke, drunk, and talking to yourself.
4. Yes, I do have a sense of humor and have the certificate to prove it. It’s called marriage certificate.
5. Marriage is not just a word. It’s a sentence… a life sentence.
6. A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
7. Marriage is like a three-ring circus: engagement ring, wedding ring, and suffering.
8. Love is blind, but marriage is a real eye-opener.
9. A man is incomplete until he is married. After that, he is finished.
10. A man said his credit card was stolen but he decided not to report it because the thief was spending less than his wife did.
If you wanted to avoid that jittery feeling when it’s your turn to deliver your wedding reception speech, you can start it by saying a one liner joke or two. It’s like hitting two birds with one stone because not only will you become more relaxed in front of the wedding guests but also you will have captured their attention because of the joke.
You will also be remembered as one of the best well wishers of the couple celebrating their love on that joyful occasion. Of course you will have to remember that the jokes you share with the guests should be wholesome since wedding is a family event. You wouldn’t want to offend anyone, especially the couple.
The beginning of your speech is not the only portion you can place your jokes on. You can also insert other jokes in the middle of your wedding reception speech, especially if it is quite long. You shouldn’t forget that the speech you’re giving out is actually a personal message for the couple so better take some time off to write a great speech, especially because everyone in the wedding listens intently to every word you utter.
If you’re running low on one liner jokes, you can take a flashback on the good times you spent with the bride or the groom. The funny experiences you had back then can be very inspirational and who knows, you might even concoct a joke from them.
