OK, I give impromptu speeches on just about every occasion that people who know me seem to find the urge to chant "speech, speech, speech...." so I really can only add the famous five B's, plus, how far away is a few days? I say get to know the person, spend a breakfast with him?? Anything to pick out his brain. I've been lucky enough to spend time with the persons both my sisters were marrying before they got hitched to give a short, memorable speech. Why memorable, I don't wanna endorse this guy. That's where the be genuine comes in, you've got to let it come from your heart.
If you really think he's the deal then speak your mind albeit be respectful, 300 folk, "whew" --&**wipes forehead**..... If not, then also be genuine and wish them all the luck in the world as long as they live. Say how much you knew your sis and her smarts, instinct (knack) for making the right decisions e.t.c. and go with the flow. Really, no preassure.
Remember everything you've ever posted on here about weddings... yeah, it's about them, BE there PR!!
P.S.
