Well, at my brother's wedding, the maid of honor didn't make a speech. Only the best man,my other brother, gave a speech. I think it depends on whose in charge of it, and if they want both to give a speech.
My brother gave his best man speech right off the top of his head.
You could tell them congrats, and maybe tell of a memory you have of your friend, or of the couple that sticks out in your mind. If you and the bride were friends since you were little kids, mention that say something like " We were friends since we were little kids, and now i'm up here, still by your side all these years later". Say something that comes from the heart or something funny. Its all up to you. It can be long or it can be short and sweet.

Search speech/ wedding/ maid of honor, etc. online. Pick a short speech, and write it down. Try to memorize, but have it all on a note card with you. Make it 30 seconds or so long. Good luck.

You don't have to say anything fancy. Thank everyone for coming and sharing in (bride and groom's) special day. Then, wish the bride and groom much happiness. (I often tell a bride and groom that I hope this is the saddest day of the rest of their lives--and then explain that means they will be even happier than they are today for the rest of their lives--it's a little goofy, though, for a speech cuz sometimes people don't get it unless you really explain it.)
If you really want to get fancy, you could google "wedding toasts". You'd probably get lots of ideas.

I in my view do not just like the get dressed however thats a dull purpose no longer be MOH. I was once a bridesmaid at my sister's marriage ceremony and did not just like the get dressed, I nonetheless consider it was once an terrible alternative. But on the finish of the day, it was once her day and she or he spent a while making a choice on them so I wore it. If she refuses to be MOH, that's a tremendous privilage, then probably she is not a well buddy in the end. I consider you must speak to her and provide an explanation for that you just just like the get dressed and if she nonetheless does not wish to put on it then ask anybody else since shes definitely no longer a well buddy.

It is perfectly acceptable to tell the people at the wedding that "I am not use to speaking in front of people, So I am a little nervous," Then go from there.
