Straight-up

I want to welcome each of you to the wedding today. It is a true testament to the bride and groom that you have taken time from your busy schedule to come and witness their marriage. I have never seen a more beautiful bride than Linda, and Paul looks just plain proud, doesn’t he?

I wish to extend a warm welcome to each one of you tonight. As I look around the room, I marvel at the faces I see. Paul and Linda, you could not have had a better turnout had you sold tickets to the reception on eBay.
