So you’re a groom on your wedding day. The reception plans have been made months ago, the ceremony ended an hour ago, and the stress you have had built up around this day since your engagement can finally be put aside and replaced with relaxation and good tidings with family and friends, right?

Sure…unless you forgot to prepare a toast for the reception.

Often an overlooked part of the wedding festivities, the toast can create feelings of laughter and warm nostalgia or create an awkwardness that your guests won’t soon forget.

Well don’t fret, because our friends over at GroomGroove have created a short instructional video explaining a cliffnotes-style lesson plan for giving an effective toast that is sure to create a moment that your guests will remember for all the right reasons.
