The Bride - Sample Wedding Speeches & Toasts

Hello, everyone. I'd like to thank everyone who is here today for showing up to help me celebrate our wedding.

To my beloved groom Joe, I love you so much. You cannot imagine how happy I am to be your wife. Ever since the day you proposed to me, I've been walking on air, counting the minutes until I became your bride. Now that I have, I want to tell you that I will spend the rest of my life being the kind of wife you deserve. You're my best friend, my partner and my love, and I am honored to call you my husband.

To my maid of honor, Susan -- I can't thank you enough for all the things you've done for me! You've played such an instrumental part in the planning of this wedding -- I couldn't have done it without you! Ever since we were little girls, you've been there with your friendship and support. I remember how we used to dress up and pretend to be brides...and now I am! I love you like a sister and I'm so glad you're my friend!

I want to thank my mother and father for being the best parents a girl could ever want. I love you both so much and I am so happy you are here to share my special day. It would take me a lifetime to repay all the kindness, support and love that you have given me.

And to my new in-laws, George and Diane, I want to express how blessed I feel to become a part of your family. I love your son more than anything and will do my very best to be the best wife to him that I can be, and the best daughter-in-law to the two of you. Thank you so much for being here today and offering your love and support.

To my bridesmaids -- thank you all for being a part of my wedding. You all look so beautiful and I am so honored to have you here today. I'd like to give a big thanks as well to our ushers, as well as our beautiful little flower girl Marie and handsome ringbearer Max. You guys did such a great job!

And now, I'd like to turn things over to my maid of honor...
