Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen!

I was hoping to be the best looking person in the room today… but obviously I failed miserably because Kayla you look absolutely beautiful.

I would like to a moment to thank Brian and Kayla for allowing me this honour today. As I don't feel it can be said enough, I'd also like to thank everyone who has worked so hard to ensure that this special day for the bride and groom has been so perfect.

For those of you that don't know me, my name is Johnnie, and I've known Brian since our freshman year of college. We meet at college where we both were music majors. Brian was really quiet in the beginning of our friendship but that soon changed in our junior year of college.

That year Brian was living in an apartment on campus with our good friends Ben, Matt, and Jimmy and I became the fifth honouree roommate. We spent many nights playing gears of war on the Xbox and having social get-togethers. At that time Brian and I we were going to be professional DJ's… So we thought. We made it so big that the apartment went from room 321 to club 321.

Brian you are one of the cleverest, most loyal, generous, char charm…Sorry, I can't read your writing. You'll just have to tell me that part later. Seriously though, Brian is one of the highest-quality people I know and is an invaluable friend. He's the kind of friend who asks you how your day is, and really wants to know.

He's the kind of friend that pushes you to be a better person. Kayla you've snagged yourself a great catch. And Kayla, you definitely bring out the best qualities in Brian and make him very happy. I could tell how special you were when Brian called me up after your first date. He finally got off the phone after two hours. I have a lot to thank you two for. If you hadn't met, I never would have used your match.com profile to meet my wife.

Now I get to share some things with you two that I have learned from my year and a half of marriage. Now that you're married, you have been officially promoted from when is the wedding, to when are you having kids!!

Brian, take Kayla's hand and place your hand over hers. Now remember this moment and cherish it because this will be the last time you'll ever have the upper hand!!! Lastly, remember to always communicate and try not to go to sleep angry at each other.

 

At this time I ask everyone to raise their glass:

Here is to love, laughter, and a happily ever after, Brian and Kayla your fairy tale is only beginning.

Cheers
