The Most Hilarious Father of the Bride Toast

it's going to be hard to follow that but I'll do my best it was a Saturday in July efficient City New Jersey the day started out like any other a morning bike ride the breakfast a leisurely stroll on the boardwalk and a lazy afternoon on the beach and as my wife Sue and I sat in our beach chairs watching Nick and Nicole hand-in-hand playfully splashing by the water's edge with a real sense of happiness and a smile on my face I turned to my wife and I said she's going to marry that boy [Applause] they don't know it's coming and as the Sun set and we return home for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres on our back deck then court a Phillies game and movie and then retired for the evening and as we peacefully drifted off to the sleep our bedroom door flung open and Nick Valenti fresh from a night in Sea Isle City and clearly making a wrong turn for the hallway bath [Applause] [Music] staggered by our bed on his way to our bathroom sue who always picks the side of the bed closest to the bathroom would live to regret that choice this evening as we lay stunned and trembling and fearful anticipation as to what might come next our worst fears were realized as Nick emerged from the bathroom and proceeded to get into bed with us [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] soon always accommodating started to move over to give him more room outraged I said get him out of here to which she replied I'm not touching him his thing might be out [Applause] [Music] so I got out of bed and I guided Nick back to his room and as I returned to bed now locking the door behind me which we do now every night even when no one is in the house [Applause] I got back into bed still dazed and confused and with a look of bewilderment on my face I turned to my wife and said she's going to marry that boy [Applause] Nicholas Michael all joking aside you're an outstanding young man with a kind and generous soul and me and Sue and Gino couldn't be happier to welcome you into the Samoa family as your family has welcomed the coal into theirs your mother and father Marlene Mike your sister Kimmy and your brothers Danny and Max have opened up their hearts and home to us and we are honored humbled and grateful your family's character and integrity set a high bar and we'll do our best to keep up although I have to tell you off script keeping up with your old man is going to be tough that's going to be tough but dad's going to be tough it's going to be tough Nicole grace Lucy ever since you could walk and talk whenever your mother where I would announce it was time for bed you would jump up and yell five more minutes and no matter what we did that day the zoo the library the park a birthday party at Chucky Cheese or all the above you still needed five more minutes your spirit and zest for life which you inherited from your nanny Lou and uncle buddy although challenging at times is a gift and a blessing and whenever your mother and I look at you and Nick what impresses and delights us the most is the childlike enthusiasm for life that the two of you share and so I say to the both of you now cherish that enthusiasm nurture it and don't ever change and so once again let's raise our glass and toast the new mr. and mrs. thalente and let the games begin [Applause] [Music]
