Don't be too maudlin (a danger for me while I am drunk), but throw something romantic and sweet in there -- maybe something like "I see Skip and Muffy together, and I know how happy they are to have found each other. And, knowing them, I know how happy they both are to have us here to see them officially become a couple, and to celebrate their vows with them."
No hints (much less actual comments) about the hot sex they had in the limo/will have in the coat room in 5 minutes/joining the Mile High Club/etc.
And keep it short.

I actually have to be very conservative with my speech given the nature of both families.
Or do I?
