To give a great meaningful speech you will want to think about this for some time ahead of time. You don't want to stand up in front of a roomful of people and stumble with your words and thoughts. Think about what the couple would want to hear on their day, what will be meaningful to them and their families. This isn't a time to embarrass them or make anyone feel uncomfortable.
The speech that you will be giving will be heard by allot of people so the best advice would be to plan and write it down on note cards and rehearse the speech before you give it to the Wedding party and wedding guests. The guests would rather see people with note cards reading then not knowing what to say ahead of time. While giving the toast look at the couple after all this speech is for them. Keep the speech short and to the point don't ramble on stuttering over words.
The things that make up a good speech is positive words and thoughts. Make the speech sincere and from your heart. Make it touching and brief. If you don't really know what to say speak to the groom and the bride for suggestions. They will give you allot of good ideals about what their day means to them, and what they mean to each other. You can remember a cute funny part about their relationship but if you are worried about if it will be embarrassing to them, get their approval first.
There are many great websites that will give you ideals of great speeches that have been already given at weddings. You can always check out these sites for tips and unique thoughts that have been touching to the bride and groom at their weddings. Always make your speech personal though, you don't want to give a speech that is generic.
