Maid of Honor Speech
Good
evening
,
everyone
!
For
those
of
you
who
don
'
t
know
me
,
I
'
m
Emily
,
and
I
have
the
incredible
honor
of
being
Sarah
'
s
Maid
of
Honor
.
Standing
here
today
,
looking
out
at
all
of
you
celebrating
Sarah
and
Tom
,
is
truly
special
.
Sarah
and
I
have
been
friends
since
we
were
nine
years
old
,
navigating
everything
from
scraped
knees
and
school
dances
to
awkward
teenage
phases
and
,
finally
,
finding
our
footing
as
adults
.
She
'
s
been
my
rock
,
my
confidante
,
and
my
partner
-
in
-
crime
through
it
all
.
I
remember
when
Sarah
first
told
me
about
Tom
.
She
had
this
glow
about
her
,
a
sort
of
quiet
excitement
that
was
different
from
anything
I
'
d
seen
before
.
She
described
him
not
just
with
words
,
but
with
her
entire
being
–
his
kindness
,
his
sense
of
humor
,
how
he
made
her
feel
seen
and
understood
.
And
when
I
finally
met
him
,
I
understood
why
.
Tom
,
you
have
this
incredible
ability
to
make
everyone
around
you
feel
comfortable
and
valued
,
and
the
way
you
look
at
Sarah
…
well
,
it
’
s
clear
you
’
ve
found
your
person
.
Sarah
,
where
do
I
even
begin
?
You

one

the
most
compassionate
,

thoughtful

I

You

a
unique
gift
for
making
everyone
around
you
feel
brighter
.
You
'
re
fiercely
loyal

always

to
listen
without
judgment
,

that
can
fill
a
room
.
I

always
admired
your

You

each

perfectly
,
like
two
puzzle
pieces
that
were
meant
to
fit
.
Tom
,

brought
so
