Or even a poem
I've Married One of Shakespeare's Dreams
Ogden Nash
Geniuses of countless nations
Have told their love for generations
Till all their memorable phrases
Are common as goldenrod or daisies.
Their girls have glimmered like the moon,
Or shimmered like a summer moon,
Stood like a lily, fled like a fawn,
Now the sunset, now the dawn,
Here the princess in the tower
There the sweet forbidden flower.
Darling, when I look at you
Every aged phrase is new,
And there are moments when it seems
I've married one of Shakespeare's dreams.

Best Man Speech
Welcome everyone to on this wonderful occasion to .....+ ....... wedding day. I've known ................... for many years we grew up together and he's been a wonderful friend over the years. He will make an admirable loving husband and I now say goodbye to my drinking buddy.
I'm sure we'll still have laughs and holidays .............
Here's a little poem
Whilst the sun is shining in your hearts
The stars are all the kisses;
May this day be full of love
When you make her your Mrs.
She melted your heart
You go weak at the knees;
Tonights the night you
Discover the birds and bees.
May you continue this journey
Throughout your whole life;
Learning and laughing together
As husband and wife.
We wish you a very Happy Wedding Day
Make sure you film the lot;
Because trust me with your nerves
It goes so fast you will have forgot!

Farewell Toasts and Speeches
""
Congratulations on your well deserved retirement,
Wishing you every happiness in the years ahead.
No lying about your age, more lying around the house
After lying much longer in bed
As a chapter closes in your life,
And a new one starts for you,
May your years be filled with all the things
You've been looking forward to!
It is time to step aside
For a less experienced and less able man
It is time to do nothing
Because you can
It's No Job, No Stress, No Pay
It's goodbye tension...hello pension;
It's spending your kids inheritance
It's when work never gets a mention.
Take life with a pinch of salt
A shot of tequila and a wedge of lime;
Do nothing at all
But take your time
All the meaning has gone out of weekends
Now you have a Life;
With half the money
And twice the wife
Have a terrific retirement
You earned it!
Jon Bratton 2009

At last some time for pleasure trips
The ones you've always wanted;
The time to just take your time
New schedules all undaunted.
Those plan A's and B's
Coming down of that dusty shelf;
it's your time now just for you
To do things for your self.
Maggie-May
