A toast

This year I got the amazing chance to be apart of my best friends wedding. They have been together for more than 10 years. My best friend has taught me a lot. She's taught me to stick with it even when it's hard, laugh at yourself, and its ok to be werid.

Here is my speech I shared at their wedding:
Speech

I'm Nanette the moh how bout that ride in?

Cassie and I have known each other almost 15 years now (crazy right) how would we ever know that mrs menyards gym class would be the start of a beautiful friendship. 

Now most speeches would move to the how they met ,followed by a funny story about how the two were destined to be or ...threaten Brandon to take care of my bbf or else and end on a marriage or love quote from a song lyric or the bible. But not this speech. I see today not as the end of one chapter to start another but rather as a continuation of an amazing story 

 Over the years Cassie and I  have laughed, cried, set things on fire, fought, made up, stayed up all night,slapped each other,had near death experiences, made mix tapes, looked forward to growing up, lost loved ones, changed hair styles, bought puppies and found love. So now as we continue on our journey in this story,I will say this about your marriage.....may it be blessed. It will be hard, but worth it. There is no perfect formula to a marriage. It's what works for the both of you. It's listening to pointless stories about each others day, extra hugs and kisses, enjoying each others company and embracing each others  hurts habits and hang ups. Brandon and Cassie may the love you have for each other grow stronger everyday day, and be the one thing you always come back to when times get tough,  and be infectious to others around you. To Cassie and Brandon let the good times roll
