One of my best friends got married on October 27th and she had asked me to be the Maid of Honor.  I couldn’t pass up the opportunity, we have been best friends forever, and I wanted my speech to be great.

Now this was the first time that I ever had the opportunity to be the maid of honor, so I had never created a Maid of Honor toast before.  I wanted it to be truly great, something her and her new husband would remember forever.

I checked out quite a few websites about wedding toasts and speeches to find some samples for me to work with.  In total I spend about four weeks writing and rehearsing my speech, though I was not able to memorize it completely.

When it came to the big day, we all went out to a small town about three hours from home for the wedding.  About midway through the day I realized that I had forgotten my toast at home, and I needed to find something quick.

I stopped in at the local Internet cafe, and picked out a speech from a free wedding toasts website.  The rest of the day went without a hitch, and it was one of the most beautiful weddings I had ever attended.  Someday I might tell her where I got the toast from, but till then, it will be my little secret.
