Wedding toasts are intended to honor the newlywed couple. Ideally, a toast should be short, yet meaningful, for smooth delivery. A short toast can also keep the entire wedding party from being bored with what you have to say. A nice way you can avoid this is to prepare your toast beforehand. An even better way is to make it funny.

To give you some ideas for a funny wedding toast, use the following lines as a springboard.

Toast to the Groom

• Behind every great man there is a surprised woman. (Maryon Pearson)
• Be excellent to each other. (George Carlin, Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure)

Toast from the father of the bride or groom

• By all means marry, if you get a good wife, you will be happy. If you get a bad one, you’ll become a philosopher. (Socrates)
• Life is not the amount of breaths you take. It’s the moments that take your breath away. (Will Smith, Hitch)

Toast from the bride to the groom

• When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible. (Billy Crystal, When Harry Meets Sally)
• I love being married. It’s so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life. (Rita Rudner)

Toast from the groom to the bride

• The most important things are the hardest to say, because words diminish them. (Stephen King)
• My most brilliant achievement was my ability to be able to persuade my wife to marry me. (Winston Churchill)

Are you tired of seeing the same old formal wedding invitations? Would you send out such invites for your own wedding? Well, if you are the traditional type, you probably won’t. But hey, there’s no harm in hamming it up. Why so serious? Invite and amuse your friends at the same time, by sending them funny wedding invites. Even if you are not naturally funny, you can make your own funny invites.

Funny Pictures

When it comes to making people laugh, you can never go wrong with a goofy face. Take a couple of photos of you and your spouse-to-be making silly faces. Arrange those pictures into a collage and use it as a backdrop for your printed invites. Or you might want to try this.

You may also use a photo of the two of you and create something comical like this.

Caricatures

If you don’t feel like making silly faces in front of a camera, then why not in front of a caricaturist? To be more creative, go beyond the traditional caricature. Try a little something like this.

Funny Wordings

If you have a way with words, come up with the funniest lines for the invites, instead. Knock yourself out creating some silly rhyming lines like this.

My boyfriends nephew is getting married in a few weeks. His first wedding and his fiance’s 2nd. They’ve been living together for 3 years and his family is making such a big deal about this stupid-a** wedding. Now what really kills me is that not only do we have to buy a wedding gift, but I also have to buy a wedding shower gift. Plus I have to buy a dress and shoes for this thing and my boyfriend has to get shoes and a new shirt and tie and have his suit cleaned… so all in all, I’m thinking that this wedding is going to set me back about 300 bucks. I can’t possibly consume 300 bucks worth of alcohol at the open bar of the wedding reception, so there’s no way I’m gonna break even. Not to mention, I haven’t had a conversation with one person in that family in the last 6 months that hasn’t revolved around… yup, you guessed it… the wedding. grrrrr….

I am so sick of these stupid, unnecessary and revolting wedding shows on TV! Why can’t networks be original and give us something different?

Bridezillas, My Fair Wedding, the list goes on! Please tell me why this is, I got so mad at my friends for watching it that I grabbed my female friend’s Ipod and threw it in the toilet, breaking it instantly, because I was so furious.

1. Why are so many shows focused on weddings? So fucking boring.

2. Why do SO MANY reality shows focus on women? Not too many shows about men, but so many about women?

3. Why do you women watch crap like this? Its gotten to the point where Barack Obama should do something about it. Seriously, enough is enough. Big deal- you want a nice wedding. Who doesn’t? You spend thousands of dollars on one day, and Most marriages end in divorce. What about a show about divorce for all you pink wearing, pansy mushy females that only care about the wedding and not your husband!

At my ripe old age, I’m starting to hate the bouquet toss at weddings. I’m usually the oldest single girl herded to the dance floor so I usually haul ass to the bathroom and hide for 10 mins or so until the flowers have been fought over by the drunken bridesmaids. I’ll be damed if some random guy is putting a garter on my leg in front of 100 people I barely know! Anyone else think this is a stupid wedding tradition that should be banned?

I have been with my boyfriend for almost 3 years. We have talked about getting married and we do plan on it, we just don’t have money right now for rings and everything that goes with paying for a wedding. Well, my boyfriend’s sister is currently engaged and they have only been together a little over a year and a half. They’re not better off financially than we are, they just made it work…by putting her ring on layaway at a jewelry store and paying for everything a bit at a time, etc. I am very happy for them. But I also find myself feeling a bit jealous of them too. I don’t like feeling jealous, but I do. Am I being stupid or petty for feeling jealous?

Also, on an unrelated note. My boyfriend’s other sister got married last year, his cousin was married the year before. And his sister mentioned above is getting married later this year. I understand that I’m not officially part of the family, but I am pretty close with most of the women in his family. His sisters and his cousins. I was not asked to be a part in any of the weddings. I understand that it’s their wedding, it’s their choice…but I was a tad bit offended. I know that being offended for that really is stupid and petty. But I was even more so offended when I was invited to the bridal showers, but not the bachlerette (sp?) party. At first I didn’t know if only the bridal party usually goes to that so I didn’t take it personally…but a ton of the brides friend’s went. So I felt like I was invited to the shower just so she could get more presents when she didn’t even want me to be with her to celebrate. I know this is all so petty and it shouldn’t be about me at all. But it’s how I feel. I’m even closer to the sister getting married this year than I am with the sister that got married last year and she didn’t ask me to be in the wedding at all either. So my question is…when my bf and I do get married, would it be incredibly petty and bitchy of me to not have any of them in my wedding? Even though I don’t have many female friends that I’m close enough to warrant asking them to be in my wedding. I know it’s a bitchy move, but I don’t want people in my wedding who wouldn’t want me in theirs.
Oh, and I went with the sister that’s getting married later this year to look around at wedding stuff and she’s apparently planning it with her sister and a friend, because they’ve both just been married. So the whole time we were out she would disregard any opinions I had and call one of the girls and repeatedly said things like “oh, I wish you were here” …I just felt incredibly left out and like all she needed me there for was for a ride. I didn’t say anything to her or my bf because I know it’s not about me…it’s HER wedding…I just can’t help feeling this way.
I know that at the time, they both have other things to worry about than my feelings. I think it all just hurt me because I thought we were closer. I understand that I’m still just the girlfriend, but I thought we were more friends than just their brother’s girlfriend. I’ve noticed though, that his sisters still seem to think of me as just the girlfriend, but his brother already calls me his sister in law and his parents already treat me like a daughter and call me their daughter in law and say “I love you” when we get off the phone or leave from their house. But thank you to amandadanielle84, I think your answer made me feel the best after reading it. I do just need to focus on my relationship right now and not worry so much about getting married and whatnot.

Also, someone else said something about a justice of the peace wedding. I’ve told my bf that I didn’t care if it was like that or a ceremonial wedding, I just wanted to marry him. He still wants to save up for a ring and stuff.

I have overly obsessed with weddings. Many times a day I see something and think I either want that color at my wedding or it makes me think of something to add to my wedding. I have my colors picked out, my dress, the location, yet I’m not engaged. I don’t even have a boyfriend. I know it’s normal for girls to pre-plan a wedding, but I think about it all the time. I just want to get married. I know I can be a good wife, and I’m ready to live my life for someone else. I have a cousin who is the same age as me, who was married 2 years ago. His wedding pics are beautiful, and everytime I look at them, I get sad and wish I had some. I’m not stupid though, I’m not about to go marry some stranger, but I’m just wondering if other girls feel this way. Especially when they have friends/cousins getting married and having babies. It’s not affecting my life, I’m still able to work and socialize, but I just want to plan my wedding the man of my dreams. Am I totally out there, or what? My friends said I should be a wedding planner if I love them that much. How does one get started with that?
I’m obsessed with both planning the wedding and a marriage. I just want “the one”, ya know?
