Toastmasters & Speechwriting

Toastmasters act as the master of ceremonies at weddings. The role of the toastmaster is to ensure the smooth and efficient running of the reception and, wearing his traditional ceremonial clothes, a professional toastmaster adds to the pomp and splendour of the occasion. They discreetly go about their duties coordinating, directing and announcing the ceremonial proceedings, whilst providing confidence and a calming influence on the bridal party. A professional toastmaster will organise and run your day exactly how you wish it to be so that the you and your families can really relax and enjoy the day with full confidence in its success. Your toastmaster will also help the bride's father, the best man and the groom when it is time for them to make their wedding speeches, introducing them, telling them when to stand up, and even giving them the correct wording for the toasts they should be proposing.

Speeches and Speechwriting

Wedding speeches are a key aspect to your wedding reception. They are highly personal and much treasured for the rest of the marriage. However if you are making a speech it can be very intimidating and seem more like a burden than an honour. There is immense pressure to make people laugh as well as bringing a tear to the eye from the start of the speech all the way through to proposing the toasts. Toastmasters can reduce these nerves immensely by assisting beforehand with speech writing tips and advice, showing you how to stand with confidence and deliver a relaxed speech, and how to build up to the traditional wedding toasts at the end of the speech.

The correct order for speeches is first the bride's father (or an old family friend), then the groom and finally the best man.

Each speech traditionally ends with a toast, when guests are expected to stand, raise their glasses, repeat the wording of the toast, drink and sit back down. The wording of the toasts should be brief to allow guests to repeat it, and there is an etiquette as to who proposes each toast. The bride's father and the best man should both end their speeches by toasting the married couple either as “the happy couple”, “Mr and Mrs Smith” or “John and Sarah”. The groom toasts “The bridesmaids” or occasionally “The bridesmaids: Ella and Jane”.

The loyal toast is used at more formal weddings and is directed at the monarchy quite simply as “The Queen” or “The King”. It is the signal to guests that their jackets can be removed and, before the smoking ban, that they can smoke.

Some people may find creating a speech difficult, this is where our amazing speechwriters come in. They can create a great speech for anyone who wants to say a little something at the wedding. Whether you want laughter, happy tears or all of the emotions from your speech, a speechwriter is a brilliant option for you.

It is best to book your toastmaster as soon as you have confirmed your date and venue, we would recommend at least a year before your wedding day.
