There Are Various Phrases to Write on the Groom's Cue Card!

A memo called "cue card" to help the groom remember what to say during the welcome speech and thank-yous.

Normally, it is considered good manners not to look at the cue card during speeches (if you do, it should be a palm-sized note to just jot down key points) and to look at the audience while speaking...

However, in recent years, it has become popular at weddings to write "My Cue Card" in large letters to evoke laughter and lighten the mood!

Especially with the welcome speech being the very start of the reception, it is often very quiet, making it quite nerve-wracking to speak.

At such times, pulling out a big "My Cue Card" can bring smiles from the guests and help ease the tension, which is a relief♡

On the back of the cue card (the side that guests see), various phrases and messages are written, so let me introduce some examples!

【Performance】 Thought it was a Cue Card…!

Lastly, let me introduce a performance using the cue card (?!)

First, pull out the prepared "My Cue Card" at the start of the welcome speech for a laugh♡

Then, proceed with the welcome speech normally.

@jin__wedding

After finishing the welcome speech, reveal the joke.

In fact, the cue card had nothing written on the welcome speech; it simply said "Have a great time today!"*

Guests who thought you were reading from the cue card were surprised 😲

@jin__wedding

There were exclamations of "Ohhh~!" in admiration♡

The mood lightens, and the groom is viewed positively; it’s quite an interesting idea♡

【Performance】 If the Groom Messes Up, Use a Squeaky Hammer!

A cue card that says “If I Mess Up, Use the Squeaky Hammer.”

What it actually looks like is…

@celebrate.601

Standing by the groom while he gives his speech, the bride is waiting with a squeaky hammer!

Such a performance naturally raises expectations for some squeaks♡

@celebrate.601

Here’s another one: “If I Mess Up, Use a Slapstick”!

Guests listening to the speech are on edge and nervous too＊

Should You Include Text on the Groom's Cue Card or Not?

I have introduced various phrases to include on the groom's cue card♡

Besides just writing on the cue card, you might consider:

✅ Preparing a cue card as large as newspaper

✅ Folding a large cue card and unfolding it during the speech

✅ Involving the planner in a skit about forgetting the cue card

There are many ideas that can lighten the mood♡

Cue cards can be a great idea for grooms who are good at energizing the room, have a playful character, and are having a casual wedding,

But for those who value traditional customs and manners (especially senior staff or older relatives), seeing the groom goofing around at such an important wedding might lead to a negative impression,

And if there are few guests who would tease, the atmosphere could sag instead...!

Please consider the groom's personality and the vibe of the guests before incorporating such ideas♡
