Bridesmaid's Speech

Bride and Bridesmaids

The love of Paul and Nikki

Brings us gathered here today,

I'm honoured that they've asked me

For some words I'd like to say.

​

They met way back at air cadets

Where Paul caught Nikki's eye,

And stalk him, yes, young Nikki did

And now we all see why.

​

True love is clear for all to see

From this amazing couple,

But fun and laughter play their part

So this may make you chuckle.

​

For Nikki, she's from Cheshire

Yes she's very posh you see,

She loves her food and cake

So she's the perfect friend to me.

​

And Paul he loves his sports

And tries a new one every year,

The phrase that springs to mind

Is "all the gear, but no idea."

​

So on a trip to Thailand

Scuba diving was the notion,

For Paul to pop the question

At the bottom of the ocean.

​

And what an old romantic

This man Paul turned out to be,

Until he dropped the Go-Pro

Nearly lost it in the sea!

​

Your lives they are so hectic

Paul's so busy this is known,

And Nikki does remind you

Where's your wallet, glasses, phone?

​

Paul - Nikki keeps you grounded

And her love for you is true,

That much is clear for all to see

By the way she looks at you.

​

Nikki - Paul he is your soul mate

Full of spirit, fun and grit,

And to see you both together

Well you are the perfect fit.

​

May marriage bring you closer

New adventures at their start,

A journey like no other

Of which I'm glad to be a part.

​

Enjoy your wedding on this day

I'm sure the stress was worth it,

You both deserve the best in life

Because to me you're perfect.
