BACHELOR PARTY SPEECHES
Speech by best friend to bride-to-be
We tried to persuade Maria not to get
married, however we didn't change her mind. We warned her that a wife's
work is never done. She is chained to the kitchen sink and washing socks.
Unpaid secretary, social organizer, babysitter, cook, etcetera. When we
told her this she said, and I quote, 'Phooey!'
There are many young men who will mourn her
departure from the ranks of the available, ah (sigh), some of whom had
fond memories of her, others, merely hopes. She was a very popular girl.
Men flocked into her office. We realized why when we called. She had taken
the sign MEN from the Gents, and put it on her office door.
But now that Jonathan has claimed her,
those days are gone. Her parents and roommates look forward to the
recovery of their telephones and bathrooms.
We must admit that it looks to us like a very good
match, and it is only because she is marrying Jonathan that she has such
an idealized view of what men and marriage are really like. Does she not
know the truth, that after marriage, life changes. Men can be late. Women
cannot. We are duty bound to warn her of what others who married have
said. But since we have failed to persuade her to stay single, we can only
wish her well, and give her this small token of our good wishes for her
future, in memory of our happy bachelor days together.
The girls bringing in the parcel could dress up
like the W bridegroom-to-be, taking his work or hobby as the
theme, or like any male characters such as
footballers, policemen or policewomen wearing sunglasses, gorillas
with cigars, city gents in bowler hats, or a spoof
pop group of boys in short trousers and caps singing, 'Will you still need
me when I'm sixty-four?'. The parcel presented should be amusing, either
an unusual shape, or several boxes inside each other so that the gift
takes a while to find. The gift presented should be one of value and
usefulness for setting up home (so that she is not disappointed), perhaps
with a memento of her bachelor days, such as a cassette by her favorite
pop singers, but inside a container gift which is a joke, e.g. a silver
cake slice, or selection of kitchen implements, or telephone address book,
plus cassettes in the bottom of a pair of large man's football socks (the
correct size to fit her husband to be), or a pair of pillowcases
embroidered 'his' and 'hers'. There should be a card signed by all the
friends.
Looking for that great opening or close.
