subject: Groom To Bride Toast [print this page] It is quite traditional for the groom to be asked to deliver a wedding speech and toast for the bride. Now, this can be a bit stressful for those people who are not used to giving speeches or talking in front of a lot of people. But with these tips on how to make a great groom to bride toast, you cant go wrong.
Before anything else, the first thing that you have to do is to, of course, decide on a topic. You may want to tell short stories of how you and your bride met, how you two fell in love, and how you two decided that you wanted to spend the rest of your lives with each other. Make it exciting, funny, and interesting to keep your audiences interest piqued. Also make your speech honest and genuine and sincere.
Remember to use tasteful humor, and dont do in jokes that only a few people will get. You want to include everyone in on the joke, not exclude them. Moreover, do not ever make fun of your bride or to make silly jokes at her expense.
After your short narration of how your romance blossomed, you can go on with your speech thanking the people who helped you with your preparations, the people who have been supportive of your relationship, and the people who shared that momentous day with you. You can say something that goes like this Thank you to each and every one of you for sharing this joyous occasion with us. A wedding can happen anywhere and at any time, but it can only be a true celebration when it is shared with the people who matter to you the most. So thank you.
Do not forget to include your beautiful bride in your thank yous. Besides, you wouldnt have a wedding without her. You may say something that goes like this: Thank you, my beautiful wife, for putting up with me, loving me, and always being there for me. I love you always and forever. Heres to an amazing life together.
As for the groom to bride toast, keep it three to five minutes long. Make sure that all glasses are full before you begin, and maintain eye contact with your bride as you deliver it. It also helps to practice your toast beforehand. Nothing is as important as your very own wedding day.
