My dad is getting married soon and he has asked me to say something at the ceremony. It's going to be very small-immediate family only-and secular. The entire wedding is very laid-back and he said I could say whatever I wanted. I'm looking for a quote, reading, whatever--definitely on the shorter side though (not more than two minutes at most). I really like his fiance but I'm still not 100% thrilled about the wedding. I'm very happy for him, but still very sad that my mom's death is what brought us to this event. I want to convey that I am happy for them, but I don't want it to be too gushy and I don't want to come off as fake--it is no secret that I am having a hard time.
My initial thoughts were something along the Bob Dylan/Joni Mitchell lines, but I'm open to all suggestions.
Thanks so much for your help! I'm pretty lost here.
