Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. It’s a real pleasure to be here talking to you on this special day of Yuky and Max today.
For those who don’t know me, my name is Nami, I’m maid of honor and best friend of Yuky.
First of all I have to say how beautiful and stunning Yuki looks. When I met her for the very first time in school I never imagined I would be standing here as Yuky's maid of honor in the beautiful south of our France.
How amazing and crazy our lives could be - we went to the same school 20 years ago, we were just classmates and didn’t talk much after graduation. But 10 years later, when I started working in London, I got a phone call from Yuky all of a sudden, “Hey Nami, it’s Yuky, I’m in London too!”
That was a game changer and ever since we spent lots of time together, party like animals, talk about the career, complained about guys who give us hard time, we did many things together.
Even after we started to live in different countries our friendship never ended. When I started working in Singapore, Yuky visited me and we partied on top of marina bay sands, after Yuky went back in Japan and I visit there we hit the downtown of Tokyo and had crazy nights, another good memory is we both fly into Barcelona and danced all nights long. For Yuky's hen party, we partied on the boat in Cyprus. So we party pretty much all over the world, and we just love that. And what’s impressive is that whenever I was drunk and wasted, Yuky was always perfectly sober because she doesn’t drink any alcohol but she is a perfect party girl.
All these years of our friendship, I got to know a lot about you - how caring you are, how sweet you are to people around you, how positive you are in any circumstances, and how hard working you always are to get what you really want.
It may not have been an easy journey for you two to get here in such a distance but I’m so happy and excited to be here to celebrate this beautiful moment with everybody here.
Max, there are a few advices from me for you to take to keep your wife happy:
- Feed her good foods as she loves eating;
- Take her around the world and explore different places together as she loves travelling;
- Yuky is always right no matter what.
Try to remember these things and keep your beautiful wife happy in your new chapter of life.
Lastly thank you very much for letting us be here to share this beautiful moment today and once again a massive congratulations on your wedding.
