appallingly bad - By: david, 12 Aug 2006 
This book is dedicated to "Paula, 'bride' of my life", & this gives you an idea of the standard of the humour on offer here. The example speeches are cringe-makingly awful, & the example jokes range from outrageously inappropiate to bafflingly unfunny, through just plain corny. Many of them I would feel uncomfortable makingin mixed company, let alone at my wedding (and I'm no prude). The one star I've given this book is because it motivated me to just get on & write my speech, because my efforts could never be worse than the examplesin this book. If you're writing a speech I would advise you to do the same & just get on with it, but if you really want to get a book I'd suggest getting the "Confetti" book on wedding speeches- it's slightly less cheesy, & also has some quotes that might be useful. And good luck.
All you need to make a start on your speech - By: , 18 Apr 2002 
Most of the advice I've seen on websites has either been painfully obvious or quite irrelevant to my situation. After a couple of hours reading this entertaining & helpful book, I was ready to start putting my speech together with confidence & optimism that I didn't have before. It's particularly helpful if you're concerned about how to convey sincere (and expected) emotions without your mates laughing at you!
It won't give you masses of content to crib from, though, but it does give enough guidance for you to produce your own material, which is probably better. Well worth the money.
