wedding-speech
A best-man/maid-of-honour/parent wedding toast that actually lands — funny without roasting, moving without syrup, short enough that nobody checks their phone. Use when someone has to give a wedding speech and has either nothing or a dangerous first draft. Produces a 2-4 minute toast built on one good story, plus delivery notes and the three jokes to cut.

# Wedding Speech Every bad wedding speech fails the same three ways: too long, too inside, or secretly about the speaker. The fix is structural — one story, one arc from laughter to warmth, one glass raised under four minutes. ## Required Inputs - **The role** (best man, maid of honour, parent, friend) and the speaker's real relationship to the couple. - **One to three stories** about the person they know best — including the unusable ones (exes, arrests, hazings: they won't be used, but they often contain a usable kernel). - **What they honestly think of the partner** — the pivot of the whole speech lives here. - Audience shape: grandparents present? Two families with different humour thresholds? Cultural or religious considerations? ## The Arc That Works 1. **Open with a laugh that costs nothing** — self-deprecating or situational, never at the couple's expense yet ("For those who don't know me — which after this speech may be a choice…"). 2. **The story** — ONE, well told, about the person you know: specific, visual, ending somewhere character-revealing. 3. **The pivot** — "and then they met ___" — the story's trait meets the partner; this is where the room goes quiet in the goo

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill wedding-speech --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
