I highly recommend this book to anyone planning their wedding or giving a speech at one.

I got this book for my brother's upcoming church wedding to his long-time girlfriend. Actually, they already got married in Las Vegas a few months ago but we, his whole family were dismayed because the couple didn't tell us about it. They were on vacation at that time and when they saw the Little Chapel in Vegas, they hooked up. Couple of months later, they decided to tell us the truth and now they want a real wedding with the whole family (of both sides) in full attendance. The wedding will take place by the end of they year (December) so this book by Sam Siv is really helpful not only to me but to my mom, dad and in-laws.Wedding Speeches is a very useful guide that contains information & instructions on how to prepare and write speeches. I was tasked to help in hosting my brother's forthcoming wedding reception and now I am prepared. I liked that there is info on the proper order of speeches as well as how to make sure that a great speech is delivered. Before I read this book, I am in charge of writing intros for the bride and groom, how they met and the things they have in common. I thought those were the basic things to do and prepare. I was wrong. When I read Wedding Speeches, I discovered that there are a lot of factors to consider when introducing the principal roles in a wedding. Thanks to Sam Siv, I know more about the proper welcome and introductions, the kind of toasts that should take place and the ones that should be avoided and acknowledging the presence of in-laws & guests. I'm glad because this book really proved to be very valuable to me.

This book is filled with wonderful advice and tips for all your wedding speech needs! It really is a very helpful, informative, eloquently written book!

Don't bother! this is a cut 'n' paste exercise from the web and none of it is enlightening. Biggest waste of money in the last 6 months. If there was a minus score option, I would have used it. Its that crap.

Just what I needed

Don't bother - its useless

Very repetitive and didn't really learn anything
