My daughters wedding tomorrow...

just remember one thing, dont feck the speech up!!!!

just kidding remember everyone want you to do well so there really is no pressure.

ps when the best man does his speech close your ears.

Thanks MT

Dont do what i did on my wedding day..I called my wife by the name of a ex....still gets thrown at me to this day..

have a sly drink in the morning to calm your nerves..if you drink

Thanks Geoff I certainly will.

imagine they are all naked or something and keep it brief

Just have a great day.

Your daughter's getting married so it's a big day for all of you.

Presumably, you're only bricking it as you don't like being the centre of attention/making speeches. As the bride's father you don't have to be funny or clever, just heartfelt. Pay compliments, thank people etc. If you're really nervous, ask your daughter if you can make your speech before the meal. That way, you can relax afterwards and enjoy the rest of the day.

I'm sure the day will turn out far better than you imagine. All the best.

If you're up to it over the next couple of days let us know how it all goes.

yep leave the funnies to the best man, nowt as unsettling as a joke that doesnt get a laugh, not that it seems to get to Alan fecking Carr

Thanks a lot gents.You have me.I am not a comedian.Tend to get very emotional,I will probably be blubbering throughout the speech,it's this that I'm worried about,not the actual speech as such.What a wuss.

its a wedding and i can guarantee you someone will make a  right arse of themselves if drink is involved, my mate tried to get off with the bride at his cousins wedding

Joos,

Don't try and be what you're not.

Everyone (especially women)loves a bloke who is capable of showing his emotions. If you need to blub just blub. It just shows how much your daughter means to you. Fair play to you. For coming on here admitting your bricking it just shows how much tomorrow means to you and what a great dad you must be.

You won't let your daughter down in any way. Always a good idea to big your own missus up a bit as well! However, the only poor thing about tomorrow, depending on the time of the wedding, is you may well miss Camelot's bloodless victory at 3.40 (This is a horse racing forum after all)!!

Saw my Dad on the way to church and he said 'Don't look so worried son, you're giving your daughter away today'. 'If you saw the florists bill Dad you would see I'm not bloomimg 'giving' her away at all'.

Make notes on bits of paper and take them out of your pocket to read out. We are gathered together here today to celebrate the wedding of my daughter to her boyfriend 'pure and simple'.

She's pure and he's ....' Oh I wasn't going to use that.

Thanks Baldwin65,wifes been in bed for an hour,I will be studying for a while yet.Will have a bet tomorrow no matter how much my daughter means to me.It will pass some time until THE time. I cannot wait really,so proud.

Sorry don't know what happened there lol.

brigust  like that one lol

Good luck.

My brother was married last week, everybody was naturally nervous during the week leading up to the big day. Despite a few minor glitches (which are to be expected), the day was grand and enjoyed by all.
I wish you well and don't be worried about shredding a tear or two. Must be one of the proudest days of a fathers life and many of us will not have the privilege to give a daughter away.

Is this the " I'm so proud and want to tell the world its my daughters wedding tommorow thread"? Thats the one, thankyou I thought it was.

That's right, don't forget you are luckier than a lot of people. Elvis, Prince Charles, John Lennon etc

And you join a famous club that includes Churchill, Duke of Edinburgh, Me etc

Thankyou no moves(brains).My original post was a genuine one.

no moves - maybe not (no kids then? Jaffa????)

Maybe you're just a little bit jealous as presumably you haven't got a daughter? Please confirm if I'm wrong?

In the meantime - best of luck Joos. You'll have a great day.

have a great day joos i wish the happy couple health and prosperity

when my son got married her father got up and made a brilliant speech
as he was finishing he left with the words the last time i spoke in public
i got paid £5000 and my client got 20 years he was a retired barrister

Many thanks again guys.Daft as it sounds I never thought of fathers not having the honour,of giving away their daughters,because of not having any.(I meant that,as I have written it,due to Areyoutalkintome's earlier reply and not to cause any upset or insult).This will obviously help in the battle of the tears.

enjoy the day joss

I will,thankyou Mr Crisp

and you too mr hello

As Baldwin65 requested,I would like to say we all had a brilliant day.Blubbered a little.Who cares. T
Thanks to Baldwin and others for kind words.
