No Stress, No Blank Stares—Just a Heartfelt Toast in 3 Simple Steps
Whether you're the bride, groom, parent, or part of the wedding party… if you're expected to say a few words at the reception, you might be asking:
“What do I say? And how do I make it special?”
The good news?
You don’t need to be a writer, poet, or public speaker to deliver a meaningful toast.
In fact, with my Wedding Toast Book, you can create a personal, heartfelt toast in under 10 minutes using a simple 3-step formula:
Step 1: Choose an Opening
I've included dozens of ready-to-use toast starters—some formal, some funny, some spiritual—so you can sound confident and sincere right from the first line.
Step 2: Pick a Sentiment That Fits
You’ll find beautifully written toasts categorized by tone, including:
-
Funny & Lighthearted
-
Rhyming & Poetic
-
Scriptures & Proverbs
-
Advice & Well Wishes
-
Romantic & Sentimental
-
Quotes from Famous People
Just pick the style that best matches your relationship with the couple, choose your favorite from the extensive list—and make it your own.
Step 3: Add a Closing
Finish strong with a warm, genuine send-off. We’ve included closings for every tone and setting—sweet, formal, or fun.
All you have to do is choose your 3 favorite parts, copy and personalize (insert names, adjust timing), and you're done.
No awkward silences. No rambling. No stress.
Just a toast that honors the day and touches the heart.
