Entertaining
At your aunt's retirement party, you would want to give a fun, entertaining speech incorportating a story about your aunt.
At a retirement party, you don't need to persuade anyone to do anything, since you knew about the retirement party, you would have planned a speech (so it would not be extemporanous and done spontasiously) and there's no need to inform anyone of anything at a retirement party.
