events and attractions weddingHow many toasts should there be at a wedding?
Considering this, what toasts are given at a wedding?
Traditionally, the order of wedding reception toasts goes like this:
- The best man toasts the bride.
- The maid/matron of honor toasts the groom.
- The wedding host/financier (traditionally the father of the bride) toasts the couple.
- Other parental figures of the couple toast the couple.
Just so, when should the toast be given at a wedding?
At a sit-down dinner, the toast takes place as soon as everyone is seated; at a cocktail reception, it is made after the couple enters the reception. The toast should be brief, lasting no more than a minute or two at most.
A toast to the two of you on your wedding day. 7. [Bride] and [groom,] may you find joy with each other each and every day from this day forward. Congratulations and remember this special day always, as it is the day that brought you two together as husband and wife.
