No speeches?!

So I'm getting married in April 2023. My FH is terrified of public speaking (as am I so completed sympathise!) and my dad is a very quiet man who would also struggle. We've discussed foregoing speeches altogether but I've never experienced this at a wedding. Has anyone else and if so, how it went down?

I feel there should be some thanks given to those who have attended/helped with the big day, but not sure how to do so without the traditional speeches.

Any help appreciated!

I attended a wedding where the best man didn't want to stand up and give a speech, but he did write one and it was displayed in a frame alongside the guest book. I thought that was a nice way to do it as the guests could read it during the reception.

I love this idea! Thank you for sharing 😊
