Weddings invite a great deal of formality and whether you are enjoying yourself as a guest or involved in the wedding party or are the lucky man or woman who are joining their lives together, toasts are going to come up. The best man makes a toast. The father of the bride may make a toast. The maid or matron of honor can make a toast. The brides and grooms even make toasts.
But when it comes to writing the toast, you may find yourself fumbling a bit. Here are some suggestions to help you get your toast started:
- Here’s to love and laughter and happily ever after, as Jack and Jill start their new life – let us all lift our glasses to toast the new husband and wife
- To all our friends gathered here today who know the best and the worst of us and refuse to believe any of it
- Here’s to me and here’s to you, here’s to us and our love so true
- Water makes you wise, wine makes you glad – fill your glasses with both and your partnership shall never be sad
- May we never forget what is worth remembering or remember what is best forgotten
- An Armenian Toast: May you grow old on one pillow
- An Armenian Toast: Here’s to the bride and bridegroom, we’ll ask their success in our prayers and through life’s dark shadows and sunshine that good luck may always be theirs
- To the newlyweds, may ‘for better or worse’ be far better than worse
- May the best of their pasts be the worst of their future
- May your love be modern enough to survive the times and old-fashioned enough to last forever
