Dropping another this week and we are talking about speeches!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
UNPOPULAR OPINION WARNING: This in no way reflects our views of our current or prospective couples and absolutely should not cause you to change your wedding plans.

Who thinks speeches at weddings should be totally nixed? We might 😬🙈 but if you disagree, that’s ok…just hear us out…
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We feel like the best time to allow loved ones to give speeches is at the rehearsal dinner, and here’s why:
1: There isn’t a time limit. Speeches can be a big time suck during a reception, and while they can happen during dinner, they can often delay the party to come, and we often find couples just want to get the dancing started ASAP. Plus, you never know how long those speeches can go…
2: People get nervous. Take it from a gal that has given quite a few wedding speeches in her life; the build up and anticipation of every single wedding guest watching you fumble over tears and emotion can be grueling. To top it off, you want to ensure those giving speeches are coherent enough to give them, but when nerves and alcohol mix, you never know what you’re gonna get.
3: So much more love. When you allow for toasts/speeches during your rehearsal dinner, more people close to you have the freedom to share their words. During the wedding, we have to keep this limited due to time, but in this setting, all are welcome.
