A toast is the raising of glasses to celebrate or honor the bride and grooms' marriage. While normally there are several toasts made at the wedding reception, they generally follow this order. Toasts for the bride come in first - typically starting out with the best man. However, this can be replaced with another relative or friend. Recently - there has been a trend towards toasting both the bride and groom at once, its up to you!

Toasts end with the father of the bride, which generally is a big tear jerker for everyone in the room. In this process he will thank all of the guests for coming and kick off the reception party!

Toasts are meant to celebrate the coming together of two people, and they provide amazing fun when done well. Wedding toasts can be serious, loving, funny, but they should always be respectful. People love to hear stories about the bride and groom, but be tactful - nothing can hurt a friendship and mar a celebration that a wedding toast that is in poor taste. Speak with confidence, speak from the heart, and wish the bride and groom a happy life together as a married couple.
