Toasts and speeches

The toasts are probably one of the most anticipated elements of any wedding. Will the groom pull off that joke about the bride's mother? Will the best man drag the appropriate skeletons out of the groom's closet?.

Here are a few suggestions for the perfect piece de resistance.

Bridegroom

- As John Keats once said "A thing of beauty is a joy forever." Here's to you, my beautiful bride.

- Never above you, never below you, always beside you. Every day you look lovelier and lovelier, and today you look like tomorrow.

Father of the bride

- It is written: when children find true love, parents find true joy. Here's to your joy and ours, from this day forward.

- Happy marriages begin when we marry the one we love, and they blossom when we love the one we married.

- May the best of your past be the worst of your future.

Best man

- Let's drink to love, which is nothing - unless it's divided by two.

- May you live as long as you like, and have all you like for as long as you live.

- May (Bride's name) share everything with her husband, including the housework.
