Keep in Short!
Everyone has been to a wedding where the speech goes on and on and on and on and on so do not be that person! Keep yours to under 3 minutes, which is more than enough time for people to keep their attention.
Bring Your drink
This one seems obvious, but people sometimes forget that to toast to the newlyweds you will need your drink with you so be sure you have it either in your hand or nearby.
It is Not About You
While it is important to give a little background on your relationship with the couple keep in mind you are toasting the couple and not your friendship.
Notecards
It is ok to have note cards but try to not read verbatim.
*Tip have any notes on a paper do not read off a phone since it will create a glare and look weird in photos.

Be Yourself
