The Order of Wedding Toasts

Traditionally, the Father of the Bride gives the toast first, then the groom and the best man.

Usually the MC or the best man will invite the father of the bride to make a toast of health and success to his daughter and new son-in-law. Often, he also offers welcome toast to the groom's parents and other guests, or express his happiness at this special day.

The groom can start with thanking his parents for their good wishes for his marriage. He can may make a toast to the bride and new parents-in-law.

The best man's toast to the newlyweds should be short and sweet. A short joke to entertain the guests can be added, but always use appropriate languages.

Remember, there is no set rule. You can always personalize your wedding!
