Your Special Wedding Toasts

Author: Sharon Naylor

Your Special Wedding Toasts provides everything needed to help all the toast-givers rise to the occasion. It offers new ideas not only for the best man and father of the bride, but for everyone from the maid of honor to guests, and shows how to craft the toast, how to practice it and pitfalls to avoid, such as toasting only the bride or groom as opposed to the couple.

This helpful guide includes a brainstorming questionnaire to help collect and organize thoughts and stories, popular and inspiring quotes, examples of successful real-life toasts, plus a collection of original wedding toasts tailored to such special situations as second weddings, outdoor or destination weddings and even post-elopement parties.
