It’s not necessary to read from the list you may have created, use it as a guideline to express your feelings. When you’re ready, clank your dinnerware against your glass and stand to make a toast. If you skip something on your list, don’t worry--go with the flow.

Your toast doesn't have to be long. However, you don't want to cut it too short. Try to capture everything you want to say within five minutes of time. Recall your list and work it into a monologue. If you have a long history with the bride and groom, go back into the past. Who were they as children? What were they like as teenagers? How did they meet and develop into the couple they are now? What part did you play in all of this, if any? These are all great background details to include in your wedding toast. And of course, you'll want to wish them the best of luck for many years to come.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a friend or relative of the bride or groom, we’re sure that you have stories to tell. Stand up and tell them. This may be your only opportunity to express your love and gratitude to the new couple in front of all your family and friends. Although newly weds tend to get embarrassed during these stories and anecdotes, they hold them dear to their heart--because they know that they came from a special place.
