Looking for English>Cantonese translation for wedding speech
I am due to be the Best Man at my brother's wedding and his future wife is from Hong Kong (although the family speak perfectly fluent English). I would like to include some Cantonese in my speech but as I am only a beginner I cannot make sentences yet. I would like to translate:
"I am excited for our families to be joined. Sam is a kind and beautiful woman who has brought me many happy times. I will try and help my brother learn Cantonese but it took him a long time to learn to use chopsticks. Thank you for welcoming us into your family."
I understand that some of the phrases may not be directly translatable from English but I just want to make the effort to speak the language. Pinyin/Yale/Cantonese symbols would be fine. I have a Cantonese friend who can teach me the pronunciation but I want to see if your translation agrees with his! Thank you so much for helping me!

今曰我地兩家人成為襯家,我好高興。阿Sam人又靚,心地又好,同佢相處好開心㗎。我會試下教我哥哥(elder brother)/細佬(younger brother)廣東話,不過佢學揸筷子都學咗好耐。好多謝你地接納我地成為一家人。
Congratulations to your brother.

FYI.
我好高興有新成員加入我哋嘅家庭。Sam係一個善良美麗嘅女人,總會帶比我好多歡樂嘅時光。我會幫我兄弟學廣東話,不過佢學用筷子都用左好耐時間了。多謝你接納我哋成為你嘅家人。
