Engagement Party Toast Traditions
Speakers
Traditionally, the father of the bride proposes a toast to the engaged
couple. The groom's role is then to rise, thank the bride's father, and perhaps
propose a toast or say a few words of his own. If someone other than the bride's
parents are hosting the party, it would be their honor to propose the toast to
the bridal couple. Any other individuals wishing to propose a toast could do so
after the host/hostess.
Timing
The timing of the toast depends on the type of engagement party. At a
cocktail party, the first toast would typically be offered once everyone has
arrived. At a dinner party, the toast is generally proposed once everyone has
been seated or as dessert is being served.
