Irish Wedding Toasts
Irish wedding toasts are very popular at today's wedding receptions. Below are some samples of Irish wedding wishes.
IRISH WEDDING BLESSINGS AND SAYINGS - "SLAINTE" - prounced SLAWN-cha
- Here is to loving, to romance, to us
May we travel together through time.
We alone count as none, but together we're one,
For our partnership puts love to rhyme. - May you have many children,
And may they grow as mature in taste,
And healthy in color,
And as sought after
As the contents of this glass. - May your blessings outnumber the shamrocks that grow,
And may any trouble avoid you wherever you go. - May your troubles be less and your blessings be more,
And nothing but happiness come through your door. - Here's to health, peace and prosperity;
May the flower of love never be nipped by the frost of disappointment. - May your fire never go out.
May your well never run dry. - Bless you and yours as well as the cottage you live in. May the roof overhead be well-thatched, and those inside well matched.
- May you look back on the past with as much pleasure as you look forward to your future.
- For each petal on the shamrock, this brings a wish your way:
Good health, good luck and happiness for today and everyday. - May you never lie, steal, cheat or drink.
But if you must lie, lie in each other's arms.
If you must steal, steal kisses.
If you must cheat, cheat death.
And if you must drink, drink with us, your friends. - Don't walk in front of me,
I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me,
I may not lead.
Walk beside me,
And just be my friend. - May your troubles be less,
And your blessings be more,
And nothing but happiness come through your door. - Like the warmth of the sun,
And the light of the day,
May the luck of the Irish
Shine bright on your way. - May the road rise to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm on your face
The rains fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand. - Long live the Irish!
Long live their cheer!
Long live our friendship, year after year. - May your neighbors respect you,
Trouble neglect you,
Angels protect you,
And heaven accept you.
AN IRISH WEDDING TOAST FROM THE BRIDE AND GROOM Friends and relatives, so fond and dear.
'Tis our great pleasure to have you here.
When many years this day has passed,
Fondest memories will always last.
So we drink a cup of Irish mead,
And ask God's blessing in your hour of need. Family and wedding guests respond with: On this, your special day,
We wish to you the goodness of the old,
The best of the new.
God bless you both who drink this mead,
May it always fill your every need. Hopefully, one of these Irish wedding wishes or toast will help inspire you in your wedding speech writing.
