First of all, my wife and I would like to thank you all for being here and sharing this very special day with us.

I'm not one for speeches and I'm a little out of my comfort zone, so I'll keep this short and sweet just like my beautiful new wife.
And I'm sure you will all agree how beautiful she looks today.

Thank you (grandfather & father of bride) for your speeches, I know it must have been very easy to write such lovely words about (bride) as you both know her so well and would have found it a struggle to write too many embarrassing things about her. But I'm sure her Best Man will make up for it.

I'd like to thank (parents of bride) for accepting me into your family, I know it's been tough coming to terms with it but even you'll agree(bride)could have done a lot worse.
We would also like to thank you both along with(grandparents of bride) for all the help and support you have always given us and for everything you have done to help make today a very special day, we couldn't have done it without you, so thank you.

Thanks to our Best Men and Ushers for their help today. It's also nice to see that they have made an effort and scrubbed up well.

We would now like you to raise your glasses as we thank all the Bridesmaids for being part of this special day, especially(chief bridesmaids for all the help and support you have given(bride)and putting up with bridezilla, you all look beautiful. To the Bridesmaids.

But the most beautiful person here today has to be (look around/make a joke) my new wife. Without her this day would not even be possible. I feel like the happiest man in the world right now, you look absolutely stunning and I'm so lucky to have someone as wonderful as you in my life.
I know we have our ups and downs and we may not be perfect, but we're perfect together.
You mean the world to me and I love you so much, so thank you for saying yes and becoming my wife.
Ladies & Gentlemen, please raise your glasses to my beautiful bride, to (bride.

As a token of our appreciation we now have a few gifts we would like to give out, but before we do I have a little something special for you babe. (Get (son) to bring up to the table) I just hope I get a little something special tonight. (Whisper to (bride) but through the mic)
Call the following to the table:

(give out gifts to wedding party)

Finally, before (bride's) Best Man takes over and embarrasses her, I would just like to pre warn you all that my Best Man, does live in a bit of a parallel universe which causes him to invent fanciful stories. He really does believe these stories to be true so I would like to thank you all for humouring him during his speech.

And to finish off, in the words of that world famous Looney Tune – That's all folks!

Cheers.
