Whether it's a traditional Irish wedding or not, knowing these toasts will prepare you to honor the bride and groom in a traditional way.

Health and a long life to you.
Land without rent to you.
A child every year to you.
And if you can't go to heaven, may you at least die in Ireland.

May you live and may you wear it out.

May the most you wish for be the least you get.

May your troubles be less and your blessings be more,
And nothing but happiness come through your door.

May there be a generation of children
On the children of your children.

May the luck of the Irish possess you.
May the devil fly off with your worries.
May God bless you forever and ever.

May your pockets be heavy and your heart be light,
May good luck pursue you each morning and night.

Long live the Irish!
Long live their cheer!
Long live our friendship, year after year!

Wishing you a rainbow
For sunlight after showers,
Miles and miles of Irish smiles
For golden happy hours,
Shamrocks at your doorway
For luck and laughter too,
And a host of friends that never ends
Each day your whole life through!

Here's to you and yours
And to mine and ours,
And if mine and ours ever come
Across you and yours,
I hope you and yours will do
As much for mine and ours
As mine and ours have done
For you and yours!

May you have all the happiness
And luck that life can hold,
And at the end of all your rainbows
May you find a pot of gold.

Here's to health, peace and prosperity. May the flower of love never be nipped by the frost of disappointment, nor shadow of grief fall upon your family and friends.

May God be with you and bless you,
May you see your children's children,
May you be poor in misfortune, rich in blessings.
May you know nothing but happiness from this day forward.

May the roof over your heads be as well thatched

As those inside are well matched.

May your day be touched
By a bit of Irish luck,
Brightened by a song in your heart,
And warmed by the smiles
of the people you love.
