Passport To Love: Toasts

August 3rd, 2011 @ 4:14 pm by Mrs. Elephant

Once we cut into the cake it was time to pass out the champagne for MOH Navy and Groomsman Runner to make their toasts.

MOH Navy made a joke about how I made her wait 755 days to give her speech.

Her speech was extremely sweet and talked about some of the same wonderful memories I shared during my MOH speech at her wedding. I loved reliving some of our times together from high school, in college, during our study abroad in Mexico and life since college.

BM Cali listened in with the rest of the crowd about some of our college memories.

Up next was Groomsmen Runner who is an amazing public speaker by trade. (Mr. E’s brother is very nervous speaking to crowds so he asked not to give a toast.)

He had us busting out as he recounted how he met me back in college and knew that any guy I introduced into our circle of friends had to be the real deal.

I can’t wait for our speeches! My sister is doing mine, and I know she’ll say just the right thing. And hopefully not embarrass me too bad. Looks like your friends had just the right balance!

The reminiscing during toasts is so sweet, and it’s so nice to hear events recounted from another’s perspective! Love the photo of you two laughing together. :)

I am not going to lie I am a little nervous for our toasts. The Sammie Sisters are giving a joint one and they love nothing more to embarrass me so we will see how this goes. They also mentioned something about a lyrical rap… great!

I absolutely love your wedding programs …but know Im not that crafty to do those. I definetly need something simple.

Where did you get your cake topper done? I really like it.
