Know the Room

First and foremost, understand your audience. Is the wedding reception more serious and formal, requiring limited jokes, or is the couple more playful and casual, allowing more room for puns? Weigh that with the audience atmosphere when you give your speech. If the guests have been sitting for a while, consider keeping things short and snappy. Of course, avoid any inside jokes that would exclude members of the audience or put the newlyweds in a bad light.

Sprinkle the Puns in Naturally

It can be tempting to pack your speech with a bunch of bride or groom puns, but less is more here. Choose a few select jokes that are personal and easy to chuckle at. A few heartfelt laughs are much better than too many jokes that don't hit the mark.

Deliver the Joke Clearly and Confidently

When a pun is written, such as in wedding captions, it is typically paired with a photo, making it easy to understand. However, when the pun or joke is delivered verbally, delivery is key to making everyone understand it. So, practice the pun again and again until you know it by heart and can say it with the right inflection.

Remember the Speech's Purpose

The point of a wedding speech or toast is to be fun, heartfelt, celebratory and authentic. You'll need to include some wedding wishes, and any jokes, especially a wedding dad joke, are just icing on the cake if you can pull them off. Jokes and puns are not mandatory by any means, so if something is questionable, just skip it.
