Our daughter who is almost 7 has said she would like to make a speech at the wedding! I love that she wants to do this and our son (who will be 5) may join in too! Now, where can i find ideas? My google searches have not found anything! Can anyone point me in the right direction.....or even share if your children are doing one?

I would be interested in this too, my step daughter to be is going to do a reading. I know the Owl and the Pussy Cate is a popular reading for kids. There is also this one I read on another site
WEDDINGS If you go to a wedding, here’s what it means No one wears trainers and no one wears jeans Your best new clothes are all that you wear And everyone in your whole family is there Even some cousins that you’ve never known And the grown-ups all say “Oh, how much you have grown!” So everyone’s sitting in one big room (except Sally and Richard, the bridge and groom) Then all of a sudden things quieten down And music starts playing and people turn round And really slowly, Sally walks in And she’s prettier now than she’s ever been. She’s a bridge and she’s really great looking today (when normally she looks just kind of okay) She walks in and stands with her dad for a while As Richard her boyfriend, awaits in the aisle His hair is all combed and he’s wearing a tie And then Sally’s mum starts to sniffle and cry. And now it comes time for the “get-married” part The Registrar says that we’re ready to start So she talks and she talks about serious things Then their friend Chris steps up holding two rings He gives one to the groom and the other to the bride Then his girlfriend, Janaki pulls him aside. Then Sally and Richard kind of look at each other And another big sniffle comes from Sally’s mother And Sally and Richard put on the wedding rings And they talk and they promise each other some things They promise that they’ll love each other a lot And help one another no matter what And be with each other the rest of their life Then the Registrar says “Now you are husband and wife”. Then everyone’s in such a big happy mood And you go to a party with very much food Where you dance with some grown-ups and drink some wine And then do a conga-dance in one long line ‘till Sally and Richard drive off in a car and everyone’s thinking how happy they are So we all yell goodbye and throw handfuls of rice Then the whole thing is over. Weddings are nice!
(obviously changing the names to your own)

Aww thats cute However, she wants to do it at the meal, after Daddy & Grandad she's told me! This would be lovely for a church wedding during the ceremony though x

Aw that's really sweet! Why don't you just ask her to say how she feels about the day, you could write that down and she could read it out. Or you could perhaps come up with a poem together about your family and what you mean to each other!
What ever you decide I'm sure it will be lovely xx
