A charming, whip-smart and thoroughly modern book on how to give a wedding speech to end all wedding speeches. All wedding types will be catered for- - big, small, religious, second marriage, atheist, straight, same-sex, church, field... All speakers will be addressed-- bride, groom, father, mother, best woman and literally everyone in between... All eventualities will be planned for- - mic failures, drunk guests, missing brides, smashed glasses, weeping FOBs, forgotten words... All of which will be delightfully and wittily illustrated, with a mix of little-known wedding facts and a whole host of inspirational (or not) quotations.
