Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Being asked to make a wedding toast is one of life’s great honours. But for many people, it can also be one of life’s most stressful moments. Here are a few ways to make the experience bearable:

Be Prepared
The best way to overcome your fear of speaking to an audience is to do your homework (well in advance of the wedding). Take the time to think through what you want to say – and get those thoughts on paper. Avoid the temptation to write out your speech word for word – you will sound much more natural by using point-form notes to help guide you through your toast.

Q. In this day of electronic communication, is it really necessary to write hand-written thank you notes? –Jodie

A. Hi Jodie, the guests that you invite to your wedding are supposed to be people that you care about, and want to share the most important day of your life with. A hand written note is your way of saying thank you for being a part of our special day. Your guests have probably gone out and bought a new dress, had their hair done, possibly hired a babysitter or even taken time off of work to attend, as well as getting a gift for you and your husband. Thank you notes need to be personal and different than the rest of the guests receive.
