Nifty Little Toast Generator
Posted on | October 30, 2008 | No Comments
As I was surfing today, I came across this tool on blissweddings.com. It’s a down and dirty toast generator. It doesn’t come up with anything profound or sentimental, but it may be enough to get you jumpstarted on writing an amazing wedding speech.
Here is the toast it generated for me in a span of 15 seconds…
A Wedding Toast to Julia and Derek
Excuse me. Would anybody mind if I took this time to wish Julia and Derek a happy half hour anniversary?(Laughter, applause) I would like to say thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Jones for all that you’ve done to make this the special day that it is. And, of course, my gratitude to Mr. and Mrs. Smith for all of your support and all that you’ve done to make this, by all accounts, the perfect day. And finally, thank you, Derek for making such a good choice for the best man.
This morning when Derek and I were getting ready, he turned to me and asked “Is everything okay?” I don’t mind telling you that I was taken aback by this. In all the years that I’ve known him, that’s the first time he’s expressed any interest in my well-being. Oh sure, he’s talked to me before, but it’s usually, “Pass the chips”, or “Don’t stand in front of the TV”, or “Did you pick up the beer?” This morning he wanted to know if I’m okay? I blame Julia for this sudden surge in sentimentality. Now Derek is caring, he’s generous, he’s sensitive. I don’t even know him anymore. Julia has changed my best friend. Actually, I should thank you Julia. You’ve done in (8) months, what I couldn’t do in (8) years.
Here’s to Julia and Derek, a life of years, free of tears, bottoms up and lots of luck.
