Can somebody please proofread this for me, I need it to be as perfect as possible!
PATTY SAY IN CHINESE AND ENGLISH. Welcome to everyone. Thank you all for coming and joining us to celebrate Katherine and Terry’s wedding. For our Chinese and English-speaking guests, I will speak Chinese and my son, Darrel will translate into English. DARREL WILL START TRANSLATION. I am so happy so many guests from both families traveled from different states and some came as far as Australia, Taiwan and China.
First I like to introduce both sides of the family. Grandmother, grandfather, and Terry’s father Tony and mother Joy and sister Jasmine.
As the mother of the bride, I will follow the tradition and say a few words. Since Katherine was born, she has developed into a very nice young person, she has always been self sufficient, always planning ahead and knows what she wants. I have never had to worry about her. She’s very independent starting from grammar school to graduating college and pursing her career. Currently she is attending graduate school and her 5-years goal from today is to get her CPA license and have children. She has developed into a very nice young person, she is respectful, kind and very thoughtful of her grandparents and myself. She is a good granddaughter and good daughter. And I am very proud of her and greatful to have her in my life.
Katherine and Terry met each other 5 years ago in California. They were introduced by the maid of honor Marico. I am so happy Katherine and Terry found each other and they get along so well. Terry is well-mannered, very respectful and considerate, always happy and smiling with a good personality.
My friends ask me if I feel sad about my daughter getting married. I can say very loudly, that I am very happy and totally relaxed because my daughter Katherine is marrying a good husband. And I am gaining another son in our family.
Please join me in a toast to send best wishes for a long and happy marriage for Katherine and Terry.
