Toasts?

Are you doing toasts? How many? Are you asking people to toast specific people? 

We are giving the opportunity for 6 toasts... My siblings, His Siblings, My parents, and both sets of his parents. And of course Us. But its weird to ask them to just get up and say nice stuff about us. Even tho I think its kind of assumed. But should someone be toasting the parents specifically?  

I'm also still dealing with assumptions of my siblings weddings. "well we did this at your sister's wedding so why aren't you doing it." sort of thing.

    I'm only going to ask the best man to toast us and we'll say a little something also.

    My sister, the Maid of Honor, is going to give a toast and my fiance and I will make a short thank you speech. Anyone else who wants to make a toast, although no one has mentioned it, can do so at the reheasal dinner with the much smaller crowd.

    I think we are just going to have MOH and BM do speeches, then we will say a very short thanks for coming.

    We are doing just a MOH and BM speech at the reception. At our rehearsal dinner we're going to give both sets of parents a chance to say a few words and then we'll thank everyone for coming and being a part of the wedding.

    Personally I think that more than 2 speeches at the reception will get dull. It depends on the situation though, like who is paying for everything. If my parents were paying for everything I would give them an opportunity to say a few words at the reception but we're paying for it ourselves so I think the rehearsal is a good place to get most of the talking out of the way.

    So we are mixing up the toasts inbetween the dinner courses. No more than 2 at a time. It won't be like half an hour of speechs before to put everyone to sleep, just a few words. 

    We don't have any attendants so there are no Best Man's or Maids to speak, and I know the parents really want to anyways.

    We don't have a bridal party, so we're just gonna do a little "Thank you all for coming" kinda deal. Short and sweet.

    My mother is the one hosting the entire wedding, so she is saying a few words of thanks at the beginning of the reception. To welcome everyone for coming kind of thing.
    The BM and MOH will both be giving toasts. But that is it. His BM is his father, and my MOH is my sister.
