I am proud to say I managed to deliver it with minimal tears: Today Is a joyful day because after 13 long years of consistence and persistence Jay-em and Krissa are finally Mr and Mrs. I had no doubt this day would be come! It is just written in the stars. I am overjoyed to be giving away my beautiful, smart, kind one and only sister, to a warm, happy, and loving family. Actually the word should not be giving away but sharing as today we do not lose her but instead we are gaining a new brother, Jay-em, who is quite an impressive dependable man, and also we are gaining more family who I know we can count on and who can also count on us. My only request from the newly weds is that you consistently and persistently handle each other with care and always with love, because I believe that anything nurtured with great care and love always grows beautifully. As we can see today when we look around the room, you both are a blessed to be surrounded with great care and love and I am confident you will continue paying it forward to each other, the people around you, the people you will meet, and your future children. Congratulations again Jay-em and Krissa. May you continuing bringing each other joy. I love you both. We all love you both.

Thank you Anna I wrote it the night before the wedding I couldn't sleep as I was worried about impromptu speaking so I wrote it down.

Thank you Jeff. I wish them the best too. It was a heartfelt speech. I know nothing about marriage yet so it is a bit vague.

@flapiz That's understandable. If you haven't been married yet, it can be hard to find the right words of encouragement for newlyweds, but I think you did an amazing job with your speech! And, just so you know, every single lady in your photo is absolutely gorgeous!

It wasn't I would say I had been a wreck since the pre wedding party. My sister feels like my first child to me so she is really precious.

Thank you. I was obligated to give the speech as I was the maid of honour. I am quite a shy person so if I had the choice I probably wouldn't.
