This will be easier for you to remember and mean more to the couple than a toast borrowed from a book.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Brief.<\/strong> Keep the toast within a two to three minutes time frame. (Hey, com&#8217;on, anyone can memorize a two minute toast.)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Tactful.<\/strong> Refrain from embarrassing the couple on their special day. The groom&#8217;s broken heart from an old girlfriend, the bride&#8217;s nose job, first marriages, what happened during the bachelor\/bachelorette party, all should be left out of the toasts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Complimentary.<\/strong> After all, the whole purpose of a toast is to say something nice about the people being honored.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Practiced.<\/strong> Practice the toast, in front of a mirror, without your notes. (Remember that if you are holding a glass in one hand and the microphone in the other, you would need a third arm to read from your notes!!)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Clear-headed.<\/strong> Nerves and memory are not aided by alcohol. Avoid the spirits until after you have successfully delivered your toast.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Mannerly.<\/strong> Sip your champagne. Wedding toasts are not a chug-a-lug contest. Your glass should not need to be refilled after each toast. Also, clinking should be done with care. Unlike beer mugs, crystal is quite delicate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Connected.<\/strong> Look at the couple and the guests while speaking slowly and clearly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be Charming.<\/strong> Remember to raise your glass during the toast and sip from your glass at the end of the toast.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12350\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12350\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12350\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486.jpg\" alt=\"wedding toast\" width=\"640\" height=\"446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486-500x348.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12350\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12350\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486.jpg\" alt=\"wedding toast\" width=\"640\" height=\"446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/medium_10122697486-500x348.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> photo credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/mssarakelly\/10122697486\/\">MsSaraKelly<\/a> via <a href=\"http:\/\/photopin.com\">photopin<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/\">cc<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>MORE: See our\u00a0<a title=\"Ultimate Guide To Wedding Speeches &amp; Toasts\" href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/guides-wedding-tools\/ready-set-deliverthe-best-wedding-speech-or-toast-ever\">Ultimate Guide to Wedding Speeches<\/a>\u00a0for everything you need to know about giving a wedding speech or toast.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a title=\"Groom Speech | The Ultimate Guide\" href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wedding-planning\/groom-speech-the-ultimate-guide\">Groom&#8217;s Speech.<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>Our Guide to writing and delivering an amazing Groom wedding speech.
