I don’t have written copies of their speeches so I can’t share them with you in their entirety… but I’m pretty sure E’s Best Man was just ‘winging it’ since he didn’t have a piece of paper in his hand. He told a story about how he and E jumped in an algae infested pool during college when UT won a big upset game. Nice…. LOL. But he tied it in nicely with a Boy Scout quote…

My MOH S gave a heartfelt speech- my favorite part was when she was talking about when she met E, she could tell that I didn’t feel the need to pretend to be anything but myself. And she said, “‘just Jessica’ is the best Jessica there is.” I thought it was really sweet! And then she ended the speech with ‘Huzzah!’ Which everyone seemed to enjoy.

It’s so surreal having people you love making speeches for you! But it’s a really special part of the day.
