Giving clever and funny wedding toasts is traditionally the job of the best man. Today it is becoming more common for both the best man and the maid of honor to both give wedding toasts. Working together, the best man and the maid of honor can create one of the most unique and funny wedding toasts that no guest will ever forget. A great way to do this is to enlist the help of several friends or family members to help you act out the toast. Sounds complicated I know, but with a little bit of planning, acting out a wedding toast by the maid of honor, best man and family friends can be one of the more memorable funny wedding toasts that will never be forgotten.

 

Like any play, the first step in acting out funny wedding toasts is coming up with a script. A great idea is to write a skit centered on how your bride and groom met, but make it a farce. Keep it light and friendly. Find out all the details on how they met and see if you can’t change it up a little bit to make it funny instead of serious to make one of the most silly and funny wedding toasts.

 

Once you have the script down, find some actors and suitable costumes. Again, when designing costumes make them a funny representation of how your bride and groom really dress. For example, if you bride is known for formal business attire, consider dressing up your actress in a business suit that is falling apart. Whatever costumes you pick, make sure they get to the reception in time for the one of the best and funny wedding toasts ever!

 

Finally, practice, practice, practice. You want this little skit to come off flawlessly, because while you are making fun of your bride and groom, you are also honoring them. Practice always makes funny wedding toasts come off better. I saw this done particularly well at a wedding last year.

 

In that case, the bride and groom had met on-line and encountered a few problems when they met in person for the first time. The reality was the bride got lost on the way to the restaurant they were supposed to meet at and they ended up meeting in the parking lot of a grocery store. The best man and maid of honor rewrote the meeting and told it in the following way while their actors acted out the parts of these funny wedding toasts. I found this to be one of the funny wedding toasts I will never forget.

 

Kathy, who is FAMOUS for getting lost, held true to form. She got in her little car, took off down the road and promptly became utterly lost. Dixon, driving from the other direction, finally got her on track and had her meet him in the parking lot of a grocery store (he was afraid to have her drive anywhere else). In typical Kathy fashion, once she arrived at the store, she exited her car and went in.  This was probably a mistake. Her poor sense direction had her wondering around the cold cuts when Dixon finally found her. He had spent time asking every single woman in the store if their name was Kathy. By the time they final met, the restaurant was closed and they ended up having deli take out sitting on the trunk of his car.

 

Creating a script and acting it out is a unique way to create funny wedding toasts that they wedding guests are sure to enjoy.
