Tom Fletcher: My Royal Wedding Speech ─ BBC Radio 1

McFly's Tom Fletcher delivers the greatest Royal wedding groom's speech of all time... if only HRH Prince Harry had thought of it first.

Wishing you all the best, from your friends at BBC Radio 1.

Tom Fletcher's original speech from his own wedding in 2012 has had over 20 million views on YouTube: https://youtu.be/27WufdasQYs

Special thanks to Tom for performing in this video, to Harry Judd for his cameo and to their band McFly for allowing us to use their music.

Also, a huge thank you to our Royal look-a-likes and children's choir.

The lyrics were adapted by Matt Edmondson:

Recently I've been,
having a wedding
I've married this beaut
You'll know her from Suits
She's Meghan

I once was a rascal
Then at Windsor Castle
I kissed my bride
The nation felt pride
So thank you

From a Prince playing polo
today I wed you, because yolo.

And obviously, my Grandma's The Queen
She thinks you're a honey, and she's on the money
Because I always dreamt of finding a girl like you
Ohh ooh
I can't believe that all my dreams came true.


Hey! been looking out for my stargirl
Turns out it's Meghan Markle
And we got married today
And it was wonderful

I spent time in the army
But I was disarmed when you charmed me
I wonder how, I wonder how
Our lives together will be?

Thank you- ooh-oooh

You're now the wife of Prince Harry!
Thank you-ooh-ooh!

You're one of the Royals and that's a big deal

Thank you ooh-ooh

You're Charlotte, George and Lou's Auntie
Girl I gotta tell you I feel so lucky,
The happiest heir with hair that's ginger.


Thanks to my brother
He's like no other
Because one day he'll wear the crown

Today his job is
To give a great speech
Because I've made him my best man
And I'm sure he'll tease me, and make me feel uneasy, just please don't get to close to the bone
Because it's times like these I'd remind him that I'm still sixth in line to the throne...


Yesterday you asked me something I thought you knew
And today you made me smile by saying "I do"
You left me with a feeling that's just a little strange
Cos I feel like I've won gold at the Invictus games

And I will answer all your wishes, don't need to ask me to
And if you deny me one of your kisses I won't go Henry the 8th on you…

So here's my speech, but really it's just a song for you
And this one should make you smile, it's all about you.

It's all about you, it's all about you Meghan
It's all about you, it's all about you Meghan
It's all about you, it's all about you Meghan
It's all about you, it's all about you Meghan

And we'll be living at the palace,
Not just me and you
With my Dad, Camilla, Wills and Kate plus rest of the crew!

So hold me close and say those words like you used to do
Dancing on the palace tiles,
Now that we've gone down the aisle… and we said it with a smile…
Those two words "I DO!"
