However, is your partner adequately preparing his speech? Surprisingly, there are many grooms who leave it until the last minute, saying things like "I forgot" or "I thought I could manage without thinking about it." It can be quite stressful when asked at the last moment, "What should I say?"

It's very reassuring to be prepared so that you can respond well if your partner asks you about the groom's speech. Also, if you're worried, brides can subtly ask their partners if they have been thinking about their speech.＊

To do this, it's necessary to know what the groom's speech entails.◎ An ideal length is about 2 minutes, roughly the equivalent of two sheets of 400-character writing paper.♩ Now, let's go over some tips for the groom's speech.＊
