First of all id like to say thank you to Bill for his kind words, they are very much appreciated. I hope £30 was enough

Now I did have a great speech lined up for you all today but naturally now that im a married man this is what ive been told to say instead. (Ha ha)

On behalf of my lovely wife and I, we would like to thank everybody for being here to share in our special day, and to say it is very much appreciated as we know a lot of you have travelled some distance to be here. I know that this is meant to be our day but it wouldn't be as special if it wasn't for all our family and friends being here with us, we would also like to thank you all for the cards, kind thoughts and wonderful presents that we have received; we look forward to opening them all. And we hope you are all enjoying today as much as we are.

We would especially like to thank Bill and Lesley for all their help and support especially over the last couple of years, and on a personal note thank you both for welcoming me into your family and for putting on such a great day for us all to share, without your help none of this would have been possible, so thank you once again. (I think we they deserve a round of applause.

I would also like to thank my own parents for their love and support through the years, and for always being there when I was in need of help, they have supported me through every stage of my life and given me the best start I could have hoped for, so thanks again mum and dad for all your love and guidance. And also a big thank you for your contribution for our fantastic day. ( flowers)

I would like to thank my brother Michael for agreeing to be my best man today and im sure you'll all agree he's done a fantastic job and also a big thank you to my sister Lisa for the wonderful job she has done in doing the hair for Fay and the bridesmaids. They are the best brother and sister anyone could wish to have. I think they deserve a round of applause, now I think we have a few presies to hand out.

And so to the one person in this room to which I owe the most thanks and that is my lovely wife who im sure youll all agree how stunning she looks today. I can honestly say I was blown away when she walked through those doors today and I would like every body here to know how happy I am that she's agreed to be my wife, she's beautiful, intelligent, hard working, the list is endless but unfortunately I cannot read her handwriting.

But seriously though I would like to say thank you for marrying me and making me the happiest man in the world, and I hope that everyday from this day forward will be as happy as today has been.

We would also like to say thanks to Ian, Fays brother and Bernie, my sisters partner for being ushers for today, and to Thomas and Scott for being the pageboys, they have all done a fantastic job in making today run smoothly, so thank you once again, they deserve a round of applause.

And finally I would like to thank Caitlin, Lauren and charlotte for being excellent bridesmaids; they have done a brilliant job and I think you'll all agree look stunning, so if you'd like to come up here Fay and I have small gifts for you all. So if you would like to raise your glasses and join me in a toast, to the bridesmaids.
