Make A Toast To Bridesmaids: The Best Bridesmaid Speech

First of all, I would like to say that writing that perfect bridesmaid speech is such a hard job. Trust me; I have been a bridesmaid at more weddings than most people, and there really is no easy way around. However, if you are having troubles making the toast to the bridesmaids, you should really check out this site. It is probably the resource that I have used the most in all of my speeches. There you can find so many examples of toasts, wedding poems and just a lot of great inspiration to make every other bridesmaid cry when she hears your speech.

Now first of all, when writing a toast to the bridesmaids, you got to remember that you want to move people. People are not moved by the same, but one of the great things (as I wrote about in my last post), is using wedding poems. Most people really love poems, and if you can read it out the right way, your wedding toast will truly be the one they will remember best from the wedding.

A few other tips is to always include the groom and the bride. They should of course be the center of your toast, but don’t dwell too much on it. You can always choose to make it funny, just don’t cross the line.
Now the really tricky part is actually to create the toast to bridesmaids. With a perfect toast, they should be so moved that they get tears in their eyes when they hear your speech. If you can make the other bridesmaids cry, you have indeed achieved the goal of writing the ultimate wedding-speech for bridesmaids and maid of honors.

Are you still missing inspiration? You can always do like I did the first time: Check out Wedding Speech 4 U. They have lots of examples, even wedding poems and fully completed speeches, that you can either use completely or just take parts and get inspiration. I have to admit, that it is really my favorite resource for wedding-toasts. Without that guide, all of my maid of honor speeches would never have been as good as they turned out to be.

Using Wedding Poems In The Maid Of Honor Speech

A while ago I attended yet another wedding as a bridesmaid, and once again I had to make a new toast for this unforgettable day. Since it was not exactly my first Bridesmaid wedding speech, I knew a few tricks or two. But this time I really wanted to make something different and special.

So I thought of the idea to use wedding poems in the speech! By using some poems, I could really touch my friend, and as both the groom and the bride where artistic and really into arts an poems, it was quite a challenge. In the end they where really moved by my poem, not just for the content, but for the thought of using poems for the maid of honor toast.

Below you can find a few of my favorite poems to use in your bridesmaid wedding speech.

May life’s road rise to greet you.
May the winds of life’s storms be always at your backs.
May life’s joys shine warm upon the circle of your family.
Until the end of days, may the God of your fathers hold you and keep you safe in the hollow of his love.

Standing by,
All the way.
Here to help you through your day.

Holding you up,
When you are weak,
Helping you find what it is you seek.

Catching your tears,
When you cry.
Pulling you through when the tide is high.

Just being there,
Through thick and thin,
All just to say, you are my friend.

And here is my personal favorite wedding poem:

No matter how we have fought, we will always be sisters.
Neither marriage nor distance nor children will change
The frictional fondness, part balm and part blisters,
No dawn can diminish nor passion make strange.

Like two trees with their wrestling roots underground,
Fighting for sun while restraining the wind,
By close and protracted proximity bound,
We’ve been shaped by a force that no fate can rescind.

And so it’s with undaunted pleasure that I
Bid farewell to a part of myself, for I know
That beyond the illusions of what, when, and why,
We’ll be together wherever we go.
