Wedding toasts are a tradition that many couples look forward to as their closest friends and family members share memorable and endearing stories to celebrate their matrimony. For many, toasts are either humorous, sentimental, or?preferably?both.
However, the microphone shouldn?t be just handed over to anybody who feels like sharing their thoughts. Wedding toasts are traditionally expected from important members of the wedding party, and sometimes, other people the bride and groom select well in advance. In fact, toasts given at the reception usually follow a structure, and a timeline, to keep everyone on track.
If you?re a couple wondering who to ask or if you’re curious if you should be on that list, these are the people who should be giving a wedding toast. Best Man

His speech should congratulate the couple on their marriage, wish them a lifetime of happiness, and hopefully, providing a few good laughs along the way without being too inappropriate.
