Marriage is a beautiful journey that two people make together. Here are some inspiring wedding speeches to help you make your marriage even more special.

 

Theme – Two people build a beautiful family by trusting and believing in each other

The British poet Eliot called April a ‘cruel month.’ In the poet’s words, it is a cruel and beautiful and sunny spring Saturday in April. On behalf of the parents of both families, I would like to thank all of the guests who have come to celebrate the marriage of two people who are starting a new chapter in their lives.
I went to elementary school with the groom’s father ○○○. I don’t know if it was because I was able to show my friend that I was living a little bit more right, healthy, and hardworking, but it was a great honor for me to be asked to officiate the wedding of my friend’s son, despite the fact that I had many great people around me. Today, as a presiding minister and a senior in the community, I would like to share with you three things that I have learned through my experiences in life as a way of life that I have learned through my experiences in life. I would like to ask two people who are creating a new family with their life partner to do three things.
First, the two of you have made a truly wonderful choice and now have the responsibility and obligation to love each other forever. We make so many choices throughout our lives, starting from childhood. Whether we buy a toy, a tie, go out to eat, or go to college, we always have to make choices, and when we make the wrong choice, we reflect on it, and sometimes we feel so regretful. Among the many choices that we make in our lives, the most important and noble choice of all is choosing a spouse.
In this sense, it was a desirable and excellent choice for the two of you to choose each other to love and spend your whole lives together, and to have a wedding today. Your desirable and excellent choice is an absolute true proposition and absolute true truth. And now, you have vowed to love each other forever and to be together. Therefore, you have been given the responsibility and obligation to love each other forever. I hope that the hearts of the two people who love each other, choose each other, get married, and start a new life together will remain forever. However, it takes a lot of effort to make each other’s love more beautiful and to build a beautiful family.
First, when two people with different upbringings and values live together, they discover many differences. Don’t think you’re wrong, but rather that you’re different from me. We should learn from each other, understand and be considerate of each other, and make concessions. Also, for the love between two people to last forever, you should give love first before you want to receive it. Before asking me to do something, you should first find out what your spouse wants. Also, you should never say anything rude. Words that insult the character of one’s spouse or words that insult one’s spouse’s family are the worst kind of foul language. Always say only words that please and benefit each other.
I hope the two of you will build a happy family together forever. I hope that all of you here will lead and help each other to build a happy and prosperous family. I will also be watching from the sidelines. Thank you for listening, the bride and groom, and all the guests!

 

 

Theme – Show consideration, love, and expression to one another

Hello, everyone.
It’s the last day of March, when colorful flowers that were only seen at flower shops last winter are in full bloom on the streets. I feel the arrival of spring in my heart. The season when the sun’s rays grow stronger has already arrived. The snow that has piled up and the frozen ground and water are melting, preparing for the birth of new life.
The warm sunshine and blooming spring flowers compete to deliver the news of spring, which we have been waiting for all winter long.
The frozen ground is thawing and the spring greens that have grown up are full of spring energy.
Just as a meeting after a long wait makes you cherish every moment of it, each bite of something that you can only taste after waiting is precious. Today, two people are standing here at this very moment, after a long wait, to start a new beginning. I hope that these two people will build a new family and live happily in the future.
The Bible says, “Love is long-suffering, love is patient, love does not envy, love does not boast, it is not proud, it is not rude, it does not seek its own, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.”
Are all of you here living as it is written in this Bible?
As you live, you cannot always be as happy as you are at this wedding.
Sometimes there are problems in your marriage. This is also true for truly loving each other. The reason it creaks is because it is not love that considers the other person, but love that satisfies oneself. A couple relationship that practices true love should naturally be selfless and centered on the other person.
There is a saying that love is a verb. Love is not an emotion, but a concrete act. No matter how much you say you love someone, if you don’t express it outwardly, it’s not love. If you express it, the other person will know that they are loved.
The bride and groom, who are getting married because they love each other, must change and shed their old selves. They must change as a son-in-law and daughter-in-law, and as the mother and father of a baby who will be born in the future. Their lifestyle, attitude, and habits must change. However, I hope that only their love will remain unchanged forever.
A couple is infinitely close and distant. Marriage is a promise between two loving men and women, and it is also the union of two families. A couple has a duty to their family because they have been growing up in different environments for a long time. Show consideration, love, and affection for each other. If you do, I am confident that you will be a happy couple for the rest of your lives.
Once again, I wish the new families that are starting today to grow like a lush tree. Thank you.

 

 

Theme – A Beginning Mind to the End Hello, it’s spring in May, the season for love

How can you not love such a beautiful landscape when you look around? It is said that you can only give love to someone when your heart is relaxed and abundant.
In winter, people meet someone because they are lonely and desolate, while in spring, they meet someone because they want to share happiness with someone.
Personally, I think spring love is more beautiful than winter love. Today, in May, a beautiful couple is getting married.
I would like to congratulate the bride, Ms. ○○○, and the groom, Mr. ○○○, who are taking their first step into the world as a married couple. And I would like to extend my congratulations to the parents of the two families who have raised their children so well and allowed them to become a married couple.
I was asked to officiate at this wedding at an age when I am supposed to be looking after my own children. The groom’s parents were married after dating for more than 30 years. I officiated at their wedding. When I was asked to officiate at this wedding, I refused, saying that an old man like me should not be doing that. But the groom’s father asked me again and again, and I ended up officiating at two weddings. It is an honor for me.
The shorter the best, so I will say a few words.
There are many numbers in the world, but my favorite is the Arabic numeral 8. As you know, 8 is the beginning and the end touching each other, and if you press it sideways, it becomes infinity. I hope that the two people who are at the starting point today will have love equal to that of the number 8.
Of course, there will be times when things get complicated in life, but if the beginning of love lasts to the end, you will achieve infinite love.
And one more thing I would like to say is about health.
It was said that losing honor or wealth is only a partial loss, but losing one’s health is a total loss. We ask that the bride and groom, as well as the elders and families of both families, do their best for the health of the bride and groom.
The groom’s father, Mr. ○○○, and his mother, Mrs. ○○○, are prominent people who have worked together to achieve today’s wealth and a harmonious family. I know the bride’s grandparents and mother are also wonderful people. Please do not forget to always show respect to the elders of both families. Thank you.

 

 

Theme – Water and Oxygen I hope you live like soil

Hello to the families of the bride and groom and the guests.
With your blessings, I congratulate the marriage of the groom ○○○ and the bride ○○○.
As a senior in life, I would like to encourage the groom, ○○○, and the bride, ○○○, to live by the principles of all things as they embark on their new life together.
First, I would like the two of you to live like water. The Greek philosopher Thales said that the origin of all things is water. Just as water always flows to the lowest place, the two people wish to find the lowest place in the world and live there as if they were spring water. I hope you will be like the rain that falls during the farming season, and like the spring water that quenches the thirst of a weary traveler. Water always flows to the lowest point, but it also flows invisibly to the highest point and circulates. I hope that the two of you will live like water that flows down to the lowest place and finally rises to the sky.
Second, I hope that the two of you will live like oxygen. Creatures that live in water live because there is oxygen in the water, and creatures that live on land live because there is air. I hope that you will become a person who is highly valued for your existence, even though you are not very visible anywhere in this world. I hope you will become a person who can get along with many people and create and capture the atmosphere. Especially when you are working, I hope you will become an indispensable presence like oxygen. I hope you will become a person who challenges all kinds of obstacles without being stopped by them, like the air that passes through a net without being caught.
Third, I hope that the two of you will always think about the sincerity of life, which is to come from the soil and return to the soil. All living things that live on land are born on land, grow up on land, and return to land. It is the law of nature that living things eat other living things that grow in the soil, and those living things eat other living things. When a living thing dies, it returns to the soil and becomes fertilizer to grow other living things. I hope that you will live in harmony with the natural order of things.
Water, air, and soil, the principles of all things, do not exist alone but are organically connected to each other. People are organisms, and I, other people, and people and nature are organically connected. Social work practice is based on the use of human behavior in the environment, and computers are also based on the principles of living organisms.
A person who is indispensable is a person who benefits others. Rather than opening your mouth to speak, open your ears to listen to others, join hands with them, and comfort their hearts. Helping others and wishing them well is happiness. Fortune is not something that is won through fighting, but something that comes back when you give it to others.
The two of you have realized the principles of all things, and I hope you live your lives like water, like air, and like soil. Once again, I congratulate the groom, ○○○, and the bride, ○○○, on their marriage, and I will conclude my remarks.

 

 

Topic – A word can improve a couple’s relationship

It is the season of fresh green and passion.
The chilly air gradually disappeared a few days ago, and now the temperature has risen significantly.
The clear spring weather seems to be shouting that it is March. A little more time will pass, and in a month, we will hear the news of the blooming of spring flowers from the south.
In the southern provinces, forsythia along the roadside is already showing a little yellow. If the warm weather continues for a few more days, the cherry blossoms will also soon burst into bloom.
However, there is something we must not forget. One must have a beautiful and good heart to fully enjoy this beautiful nature. I think March is more beautiful than ever for the two of you standing in front of me. I would like to congratulate the two of you on your new start as a married couple in this season of abundant nature. First of all, I would like to thank the guests who have come a long way to congratulate the bride and groom and congratulate them on their union.
Marriage is the union of two imperfect people.
As someone who has been married, I can relate to this statement a hundred times over. Only when two imperfect people live together can they create a perfect family. No one is perfect in this world. If they were, they would be gods, not humans. We are imperfect people, so we look for the perfect half to be perfect.
I would like to make a brief request to the two of you starting a new life today.
I hope that each of the bride and groom will say “don’t do that” to themselves and often say “good job” to the other person to become a couple who live together.
There is a saying that praise makes even a whale dance. And in human relationships, carrots and sticks are needed. It is said that if you give only carrots, people become lazy, but in a marriage, it seems that you can give only carrots. If you only use the whip, there will be less and less conversation and you will avoid each other. This is how marital relations become neglected.
If the house is filled with sincere words of praise such as “Good job” and “You can do better,” rather than words of admonishment or promises such as “Why did you do that?” and “Don’t do that again,” you will surely see rich and fruitful results.
Today, ○○○-kun and ○○○-nyan, who are starting a new life as a married couple, have promised not to say “don’t” to each other, so I will say one word on their behalf. If you think about it again and say it, there will be no quarrels and all conversations will be smooth. Please keep this in mind and make your new married life a smooth one.
A single word can change the world. And it can change a relationship between a couple.
Don’t forget that happiness, like the butterfly effect, starts with the smallest of flutters.
Thank you.

 

 

Theme – Find meaning and joy in your current life by being grateful for each day

Today, we are gathered here to celebrate the marriage of two young people.
All of you gathered here celebrate the marriage of the two of them with one mind.
If we think about the truly happy days of our lives, there are not many of them.
If I had to pick one, I think it would be the day I got married, the day I had my children, and the day I had my children get married.
How about the bride and groom?
I urge you to remember the joy and the happiness of your parents and everyone here. And I believe that if you live your whole life with that in mind, you will surely live a successful and happy life.
However, the world is not easy, and there is no such thing as a free lunch, so you will encounter various difficulties and health problems as you go through life. I think it is my duty as a wedding officiant to tell you two some secrets to living a successful and happy life.
The first secret to the path to success and happiness is patience.
There are many people in the world who are well-off due to their natural talents and the kindness of their parents, but most of them will lose all their success and happiness if they don’t have the patience to endure. On the other hand, we can see that those who are patient usually achieve a successful and happy life, even if they don’t achieve great success.
Even in a marriage, if both partners try to get everything done their way and settle everything, life becomes like a battlefield. In the long run, patience and generosity will bring you much more. I ask that you two not be too attached to your own opinions.
Second, you must constantly strive to improve yourself. Most young people fall in love and get married, but they inevitably become bored with their husbands or wives who do not try to improve themselves as they live together for a long time.
And this world cannot be successful without improving oneself. Always try to make the most of your strengths instead of trying to fix your partner’s shortcomings.
I sincerely hope that the next two people I meet will be even better than they are now.
Third, you should never lose hope, no matter what. There is always a shadow in the world. Therefore, no matter what difficulties you face, never let go of the hope.
Look at the world optimistically, be grateful for each day, and find meaning and joy in your current life, even if it is not enough. No matter how heavy the burden or how difficult the challenge, remember that suffering is not permanent, time is the great healer, and fear has no shape.
Once again, I wish you both good health and happiness, and I hope that the joy of this occasion will not be in vain. I hope that you will cherish and maintain this joy throughout your lives.
Once again, I bless you both.

 

 

Topic – I hope you will have a positive attitude and be grateful in all your dealings

Hello, everyone. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you who have come to bless the two of them even though you are busy, and I am deeply honored to have been asked to officiate at their wedding. There is an old saying that goes, “Family harmony is the key to everything.” It means that everything goes well when the family is harmonious.
To do so, we must first have a mind that respects each other. Instead of insisting on our own habits or personality, we should have a mind that respects others, understand them, and make concessions to create a harmonious family.
As the saying goes, “A couple is one mind,” I believe that if two people join their hearts together, they will not be afraid of the harsh winds and waves of this world at all. I believe that the two of you are a very compatible couple, and that your married life will be very happy. However, even if you encounter a difficult problem, if you have faith and love in each other and have a sincere attitude and have a serious conversation, you may find that it will deepen your love even more. Please keep this in mind and always try to have honest and sincere conversations.
First, I hope you will live an honest and faithful life. Now, when the two of them start building a new family after marriage, the most important thing they need is a sincere and hardworking attitude toward life. When you save time well and give your all, you will become confident in everything and I believe you will also have good results. And I hope that the two of you will always live a life that is upright, true, and honest.
Second, I hope you will always have a grateful heart and live a positive life. The two of them must never forget the great love and grace of their parents, who supported them with love and devotion and gave them excellent teachings, until they were able to achieve today’s glorious position. The two of them should have a grateful heart and approach everything positively in the future. In such a case, the two of you will become two people who are filial to their parents and other relatives, have a lot of friendship with their siblings, and are loved and trusted by everyone.
Today, the two of you are meeting as a couple of social intellectuals that everyone envies and blesses. Everyone here wishes the two of you prosperity in blessings. I hope that this will serve as a substitute for the officiator’s speech, as I want the couple to become a couple who finds greater joy in life through serving and giving to their neighbors.
Thank you.

 

 

Theme – Trust and value in each other

Hello, everyone.
It’s an afternoon in November with warm sunlight coming through the window. Until yesterday, the cold wind was blowing, and it seemed like winter would come at any moment, but today, strangely enough, the warm air is coming after a long time. Perhaps it was the will of heaven to celebrate the marriage of the groom and the bride who are standing here today.
I always start thinking about marriage again in November. This is because we have a wedding anniversary in November. Normally, I take my wife for granted and don’t realize how important she is to me. When November comes around, I remember the first time I got married and fell in love. Every time I do, I feel really sorry for my wife and give her a delicious meal and a gift. I swore to cherish and love her without causing her any trouble for the rest of my life, but as I live my life, I realize that it is not easy.
The two people in front of me no longer have the faces of young people. The faces of the two of them in my undergraduate days were more innocent and youthful, but ten years have made them mature adults.
I would like to tell these two people who are marrying because they love each other so much one thing.
Many people who are older than them will say that the longer you spend together, the more affection you feel, not the more love you feel. Why doesn’t love grow?
We always talk about the initial feelings. We need to check whether we are keeping those initial feelings in our marriage. To do so, the first thing is to firmly believe in each other. Only when we have strong faith in each other can love grow from the foundation. I hope that you will always cherish the excitement of meeting each other for the first time based on that love.
I hope that you will always see each other as a couple who respect and admire each other in new ways every day.
In my experience, marriage is difficult but not impossible.
I feel secure because I trust my wife and she trusts me. I think this person will believe me, so I tell him more, and as a result, we have a lot to talk about. As we talked more, our conversations became as sweet as when we were dating.
As the days passed, my wife, who had a few strands of gray hair, became as beautiful and lovely as she was in her youth.
I hope that you will enjoy your marriage day by day with the belief and appreciation for each other. I sincerely congratulate the two of you on your marriage.
If you remember only the points I have emphasized, I think you will be able to continue your happy married life. Thank you.

 

 

Topic – Now the two are responsible for each other

According to Genesis, God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper for him,” and while Adam was fast asleep, God created a woman from his rib.
Humans cannot live alone. Nothing exists alone in this world. Neither stones, nor trees, nor soil, nor anything else can exist alone. Humans are not alone. Being alone is never a good thing. Humans were created to live together, relying on each other.
It is said that God created the woman from the rib of the man. The ribs surround the upper body, not the lower body. Therefore, the union of a man and a woman is not simply a physical relationship, but a spiritual, mental, and spiritual relationship.
Therefore, the union of a man and a woman is bound together by a ‘love relationship’ of ‘one body’ that is more intense than anything else in this world. Now the two are each other’s most precious treasure and each other’s responsible beings who bear infinite responsibility for each other.
Love is the bone of bones and the flesh of flesh, which is responsible for each other without limit. Love is a true encounter that is not ashamed even when naked. Now, the two of you should leave your parents and unite to form one body.
The bride and groom who will make a new nest of love. As we go through life, happiness doesn’t always last. Sometimes there are tears, sadness, and loneliness. It means a life of hardship.
So, there is a Russian proverb that says, “Pray once when going to war, twice when going to sea, and three times when getting married.” Now, the two of them are at a critical point where they need to pray three times. Now, the two of you must love and encourage each other with one mind and one heart, and live wisely by being patient and enduring.
The groom, ○○○, and the bride, ○○○, have received special love and care from their parents. No matter how great a person is, they come from their parents. They cannot come into this world without their parents. No one falls from the sky or springs up from the ground. People come from their parents. Then, people should bow their heads before their parents. They should kneel before their devoted love and tears. Now, I hope that the two of you will do your best to be filial to your parents. If you cherish your spouse with unending filial piety, you will surely have a harmonious and blessed family.
Now, ○○○-gun and ○○○-yang have become one body through their sacred marriage. They have established a nest for just the two of them. Now, the history of a family has begun, and the flowers of a new family have blossomed. I hope that you will bloom the flowers of love in this family nest and spread their fragrance throughout the world. I hope that the family that is starting a new life through today’s wedding ceremony will blossom like the flowers of Eden. I hope the fruit will ripen into luscious fruit.
Thank you.

 

 

Theme – The two of you are not alone, but together you will spend the rest of your lives together

As the officiant of the marriage of the groom ○○○ and the bride ○○○, I would like to extend my sincere congratulations and best wishes.
I would like to express my gratitude and congratulations to the parents of the bride and groom for their dedication and hard work, and for bringing them together to get married.
I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all of the guests who took the time out of their busy schedules to attend this event and congratulate the couple on their wedding.
To the bride and groom who are getting married today, as a senior in life who started working earlier, I would like to give some advice on the “life” ahead of them, which is now to be lived together, not alone.
In Genesis 2, the second chapter of the Bible, which is the world’s best-selling book of all time, it says about marriage, “A man shall leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” “ In other words, when a man and a woman grow up, they leave their parents and form a new family and live independently. This is the basis and common sense of human life.
However, nowadays, the term “kangaroo family” has emerged, and there are some unfortunate parents who are unable to prepare for their old age because they are busy taking care of their married children. This is where various problems arise, not only between family members but also in society.
The bride and groom who are getting married today are capable and have the right mindset, so I hope they will not become a kangaroo family and live independently without relying on their parents’ after-sales service to build a successful family and live well.
Now, the two of them must live together for the rest of their lives, not alone, but as a couple.
Whether you are in a good mood or not, whether you are happy or sad, you and your partner should work it out together.
Everyone dreams of having a happy and beautiful life.
However, marriage can also be a catalyst for drastic changes in one’s life.
We were born to different parents and grew up, learned, and developed in different environments for over 30 years. It is very important to acknowledge this, to consider the other person first, to respect the other person’s habits and attitudes, and to accept them as they are at first.
Today, a new family was born with the blessings of all of you. I ask the bride and groom to continue to show as much interest, affection, and encouragement as they have today.
Once again, I sincerely congratulate the two of you on your marriage and conclude the ceremony.
