Making Memorable Wedding Toasts

Wedding toasts give people at the wedding a chance to express their feelings to everyone there. Wedding speeches also signal the end of the formality and the start of the festivities.

The order of wedding speeches are:

• To the bride (by friend of the bride, best man or relative)

• To the bride and groom (by best man)

• Groom's response

• Best man's response

• Others (a few words from a close friend or the father of the bride)

In more non-traditional toasts, you could use this order:

• MC toast to the newlywed couple

• Groom toast to the bride

• Bride toast to her parents

• Father of the bride

Tips for perfect wedding speeches:

• Make sure everyone's glass is filled

• Raise your glass with your right hand

• Do some homework and find some interesting, sweet or funny facts about the bride and groom. For instance, how they met or what happened on their first date.

• Use personal stories or humor but end on a serious, sentimental note.
