The groom thanks your dad and toasts the marriage party, says a few nice terms about you and tells everyone some of your hopes for the future together and then thanks them all for attending and for their well wishes. Have a look at this. My fiance has found this helpful in writing his speech:
He can really thank everyone for coming, and enjoying and celebrating, this joyess day with you and he…, then he can thank everyone envloved in helping to make it happen, then he can thank you,,, for wanting and excepting him as your husband, and not thinking all men are PIGS….
You guys aren’t supposed to do anything. Usually the toast is up to the Best Man. More modern weddings have the Best Man and Maid of Honor both do a speech/toast, together or separately. Our Best Man and Maid of Honor are married, so they did theirs together and kept it light and amusing (pretty much alternative on me the whole time since they were my Brother and SIL!) After they close, anyone who want to toast the marriage couple at that top, would go next. If you’re having an officiant, they may say a blessing before any of the toasts start. But nothing is expected of you guys in that regard. Just sit back and delight in all of the accolades being thrown your way!
I did write my husband a special poem, that I read to him after all the toasting was done, but it certainly isn’t the norm. If your future husband really wants to do it, I would say he should make it be loving, but not overly maudlin (you don’t want to be really bawling your eyes out) and he should steep it with a excellent dose of light-hearted humor. Maybe dedicate it to you and family members/friends who have been vital to you guys. And it would be really special if he didn’t let you hear it until the “huge moment”!
