Funny wedding toasts and wedding speeches can really enhance a wonderful wedding celebration.
Your aim is to lighten the mood with one or two wedding jokes that are subtle, suitable and selectively woven into your wedding speech or toast.
A wedding is not the occasion to introduce jokes that are rude or vulgar. You audience is likely to include a wide range of ages and guests from differing backgrounds and sensibilities.
