Speech tips please.....
Right, get your thinking caps on.
I'm looking for any suggestions as to humourous one-liners or funny anecdotes that can be incorporated into the groom's speech at a wedding.
The body of the speech is complete, I'm just looking for witty additions that can be added.
So, have you heard anything in a speech that you recall was particularily funny? or have you made a speech and used anything that could be of use.
It goes without saying that since its a wedding, it can't be risque, so good clean humour is invited.
Cheers in advance.

Get 20 or so blank keys cut at your local hardware store. Before the speech give them out (covertly) to people who will be sitting at the speech. Then, when the time comes say somethng like:
"Well Mrs X, you've had your fair share of fun over the years, but now its time to settle down. For this reason I no longer need the key to your house" drop a key into a top hat thats sitting on the table in front of you.
Then go on to say:
"Does anyone else out there have a spare key for Mrs X's house, if you do, cmon own up and hand it in as Bob wont be too happy if you keep it"
At this point, 20 blokes get up and walk to the front with keys

I did the old "this won't be a long speech" line and had the speech attached to one of those continuous sheets of printer paper which, with great timing , was dropped to the floor! Got a laugh from the audience thank god!
