Listing everyone you're grateful for sounds generous but plays like the world's dullest Oscar speech. Thank the hosts in one sentence, then move on. Your audience came for stories and emotion, not a verbal guest list. If you must acknowledge six bridesmaids, three ushers, and both caterers, send a card instead. A speech isn't a receipt.
