FAQ

Questions & Answers

Is this for my vows or my reception speech?

This is for your reception thank-you toast — thanking guests, parents, and your wedding party, and sharing a few words about your partner. For ceremony vows, use our Vows for Him product.

What should I include in my groom speech?

A great groom speech thanks guests and family, acknowledges the wedding party, shares a personal moment about your partner, and ends with a toast. ToastPal weaves your answers into a speech that sounds like you.

How long should my groom speech be?

Most reception groom speeches run 3–5 minutes (about 400–600 words). If you choose rehearsal dinner, we tailor a shorter version for that setting.

How much does it cost?

For $39.99 you'll get 4 unique drafts of your personalized groom speech, plus delivery tools. We offer a 100% money-back guarantee if you're not satisfied.
