My sister is getting married in 3 1/2 weeks. I have a toast written but I'd like some feedback.
I'll give a little intro with my name and that I'm the bride's sister.
Sister,
You're my baby sister. When we were little we could fight like the worst of enemies and be the best of friends five minutes later. We each always had a playmate and a secret keeper. When we got a little older we both decided to have the other as maid of honor when we got married. Who would have guessed both weddings would be the same year!
BIL,
I don't know you that well since I've only really met you once before. I do knowthat she loves you, you love her, and you make her incredibly happy. That's all I need to know. As your new sister in law, I'm trusting you to protect her out here in Texas, even though she's pretty good at taking care of herself. You'll just have to kill all the spiders.
*Raise Glass*
To Sister and BIL, I wish you two a lifetime of love and happiness.
I wanted to keep it short and sweet, because frankly I'm not going to get through that first part without crying (I'm sappy like that). I also hate it when the toasts are just long stories of friendship rehash. This is actually my sister's second marriage but for that wedding they eloped. I wasnt sure if I should mention that marriage or not and decided to leave it out.
If you notice any glaring grammar errors, please let me know. I think I've got them all corrected but it's possible I missed one.
