How to Craft the Perfect Wedding Speech

Demoted Productions
About this episode

It’s wedding season, baby! Time to write that toast you’ve been putting off for weeks for your friend. Lucky for you, Ross and Natalie have the perfect framework to deliver a heartfelt, funny speech that will make everyone at the wedding come up to you and say “hey that was a great toast.” The duo also tells you things to avoid, and even go as far as to describe how to give the worst speech imaginable that may get you physically removed from the venue. In addition to a full-on course in speech writing do’s and don’ts, you’ll also hear some stories about Ross’s followers marrying their coworkers. These stories include marketing girls banished to the sales pit, point-blank tinder swiping, and the romantic fate of a small bladder. Stay tuned to hear about Corporate Natalie hitting 1 million followers on Instagram and Corp waxing his back to celebrate.
