Example toasts you can use

Wedding toasts

  • “Love is easy to find in movies and hard to find in real life. Somehow, these two found it in a grocery store parking lot. May your marriage be as lucky as that parking spot. To the newlyweds!”

  • “Here's to a marriage with more laughter than arguments, more yes than no, and more dancing in the kitchen than anyone will ever know about. Please raise your glasses to the happy couple.”

  • “I've watched you both make each other kinder, braver and a little more patient. That's what a good marriage does. To many years of exactly that. Cheers!”

Birthday toasts

  • “Some people get older. You just get more interesting. Here's to another year of stories we'll be telling for decades. Happy birthday!”

  • “To the person who remembers everyone's birthday but never wants a fuss about their own: too bad, this is a fuss. Raise your glasses!”

  • “Fifty years of good advice, bad puns and the best lasagna on the street. Here's to fifty more. Happy birthday!”

Anniversary toasts

  • “Forty years ago you promised each other forever, and you've been keeping that promise one ordinary Tuesday at a time. To Mom and Dad!”

  • “You've shown all of us that love isn't one big moment, it's a million small ones. Here's to the next million. Happy anniversary!”

Retirement toasts

  • “For thirty years you made Monday mornings bearable. Now go make every day a Saturday. To your retirement!”

  • “The office will be quieter, the coffee will be worse, and nobody will know where anything is. We'll miss you. Cheers to your next chapter!”

Holiday toasts

  • “To the people around this table: the ones who drove far, the ones who cooked, and the ones who'll do the dishes. Happy holidays!”

  • “May the year ahead bring good health, good company and fewer arguments about the thermostat. Cheers to all of us!”

Frequently asked questions

How long should a toast be?

A toast is usually 30 seconds to a minute: roughly 60-130 words. If you've been asked to give a speech rather than a toast, plan for 2-5 minutes instead.

What's the difference between a toast and a speech?

A toast is short and ends with everyone raising a glass. A speech is longer, tells stories and usually ends with a toast. At weddings, the best man, maid of honor and parents typically give speeches; other guests give toasts.

Is the toast generator really free?

Yes. You can write a few toasts a day for free with no account. If you need a full personal speech built from your own stories, Toastful's speech writer shows a free preview and unlocks from $9.95.

How do I end a toast?

Invite everyone to stand or raise their glasses, then say a short line naming who you're toasting, like 'To Maya and Josh!' or 'To fifty more years!' Pause so people can respond before you drink.

Can I use these example toasts word for word?

Of course. They're written by Toastful for anyone to use. They land better if you swap in one real detail about the person, like where they met, a habit or a favorite saying.
