The event of wedding rehearsal is an exciting moment.  Usually rehearsal dinner toasts are held the night before or at least very close to the day of wedding itself.  Normally, the bridal and groom party along with parents and close relations are included in the list of guests on this event. The intimate gathering in rehearsal dinner toasts usually consists of persons who know the couple best. These are the persons who celebrate the upcoming wedding and culmination of months of planning for the big wedding day. 

 

The event of rehearsal dinner toasts is to thank various people who accompanied in planning the wedding and those who will be participating in it. Further, on this event, the couple is wished with lots of love and joy while they are likely to start their new life together.  The best man wedding toast is also exciting.

 

During wedding rehearsal dinner toasts, you also have to prepare yourself to speak a few words.  So, you can keep these themes in mind: thanking people for their help besides welcoming the two families into a combined larger family who will support and love the pair with each other.  You can also add about a wonderful wedding celebration ahead, and love.  At least two of these themes should form part of all wedding rehearsal dinner toasts, if it is not possible to include all. There is no necessity to formally write down the toast, but thinking ahead about some of these themes will help you speak nicely.

 

It also creates a good atmosphere if you speak something nice about meeting people from the other family – the bride’s if you are from groom’s side, or vice versa. Always welcome the compliments. The moment being the perfect time to celebrate love, there should be huge amount of good feelings in the atmosphere.

 

Quite often during wedding rehearsal dinners, gifts are offered to those in the wedding party, the parents and grandparents of the bride and groom to be in their appreciation. While these gifts are presented, it makes a perfect time for rehearsal dinner toasts. Therefore, while the groom-to-be presents a gift to his mother-in-law to be, he can give a toast at the same time. Similarly, if the bride’s mother wishes to give a toast, she can do it after she has been offered a gift. Thus, the timing for toast can flow accordingly. 

 

When you are being thanked or gifted and attention turns to you, you return with giving toast to the pair or anyone you wish to thank for his help in planning the day of special occasion.
