If you feel the same way, then I am glad to share some of the tips and tricks I learned to help me write the perfect mother of the groom speech.
First, calm down and make a draft of you speech. Once you are able to write a draft of your speech, make another draft. Remember that a draft is not the final product. Initially, forget about grammar and spelling. Just write as much as you can because you can edit your work later on.
Second, when you write your speech, write as if you are in a casual conversation. Avoid using big words that can only be found in a thesaurus or dictionary. Write short sentences and populate your paragraph with 4 to 5 short sentences. Using short sentences will allow your speech to be cohesive, short, and understandable.
Third, use the old rule of creative writing - show, don't tell. I know that it is easier said than done, so the easiest way for you to do this is to use metaphors and strong imagery in your speech. Use colorful language to describe situations so that you can engage your audience better.
Fourth, make a single theme and stick with it. For example, you can make a theme like, the joys and tears of being married. You can tell some humorous anecdotes or inspirational stories that revolves around that single unifying theme. This will make your speech short and interesting at the same time cohesive and succinct. From this single theme, you can easily make a point or some important moral that you can impart to your audience, especially the newlyweds.
