Making a speech at a wedding for most people can be a little nerve racking and a great way to break the ice is to play a short intro before every speech. This will also make their walk to the speech stand a bit more fun for everyone. It can help to bring the character of the person that is about to speak and you can laugh with them, take the piss, acknowledge them and share the love.
It is best to think about the person that is doing the speech and see if there is a song that will work for them. Maybe you have a special song with them or it is band that they like or a theme from a T.V show or something to do with their work…
If there isn’t one then there are a few songs that they are simply good intro tunes and can work for everyone.
Here is some suggestion for the speeches songs. I have put them in categories to help you find your style and hopefully your song.
