You can do it!!!!
Ann Marie C November 8, 2009 at 10:20 am: No, you dont have to be the one to give the speech. The man that gave me away gave a speech before the toast and then I just attended my husband’s grandfather’s wedding and they had the Maid of honor do it. If nobody else is doing it, then yes you should probably go and give the speech even if the reception isnt fancy.

Challeng November 8, 2009 at 11:48 am: Yes, you definitely have to speak. I don’t know if I would call it a speech though. It is more like a toast or a wishing them well comment.
