A Toast
From the
Bridal Shower
Hostess

Your toast can be short or long, funny or poignant. You can go back to your first meeting with the bride or include a funny story.

But if you feel awkward speaking in front of a crowd, a short sincere toast will fit the bill.

Just adapt the paragraph below and you will have said all you should.

Let's raise our glasses for a toast to Linda, our bride to be. Linda, we are all glad to be here at your shower sharing this celebration with you. We wish you and Brian a glorious wedding day and a long and happy marriage. Cheers!


Wedding Party Toasts

Every bridal shower should include a toast to the bride - and it can be a simple one-liner. But how about those speeches expected at the wedding?

If you are part of the wedding party and wondering just where to begin, we have some helpful sources to point you in the right direction.

Not only is the best man expected to give a speech at the wedding, but often the maid of honor is asked to deliver one also. It need not be long, but it should be positive and personal.



BRIDAL SHOWER AND WEDDING TOASTS 

 

Below is a selection of sources for

Whether you are the bride, groom, matron/maid of honor, mother or father of the bride, best man, sister of the groom . . . whatever your connection... you will find the right words to use. Cheers!
