Making An Acceptable Wedding Toast
Thought is the best preparation. After finding out the facts about the subject of the toast careful thought should be given to a schema. This mental map plan will replace any written notes. It will enable you to remember what is to be said naturally, in words that will come from having thought about the subject.
A metaphor is a great aide to memory. If a toast is to be made to the groom he could be thought of as a river with a course from the mountains to the sea. Each part of the river's course will become a trigger for remembering what is to be said at that point. Following the metaphor will make the speech coherent and more enjoyable to prepare and give.
Self consciousness and nervousness can beset a person who may have little experience of public speaking. This is an issue that can be overcome by adopting a mindset. The self must be pushed aside as the speaker rises to his feet. He must concentrate his whole mind on the scheme of his speech that is in his mind. There will be no room left for self consciousness.
A speech may be inaudible if a speaker mumbles and looks down at the table in front of him. To overcome this problem he should 'speak' to a person who is at the back of the room or tent.
