Who is supposed to make wedding toasts? Does the toasting have to be done with champagne?
A. Usually the Best Man is the first to toast to the bride and groom, followed by the Father of the Bride, the Father of the Groom, and then any guest who wishes to make a toast. It is also customary that following all other toasts, the groom to toast his bride and optional for the bride to toast her groom. The brid and – or groom may proceed with a toast thanking their families, attendants and guests for sharing in their happiness and making their day very special. A toast is done with a raised glass. However, the glass does not have to be filled with champagne, wine or other alcoholic beverage. Toasts are just as celebratory with cider, non- alcoholic champagne, ginger ale, or any beverages chosen by the bride and groom.
