Why do I need to hire a toast writer?

Our service is here to help you give a great toast, whether it's for the rehearsal dinner or the wedding reception. So, if you're unsure what to say, or you don't have time, or you just need a little help - ThePerfectToast.com is ready to assist you. We'll create a custom-written toast that will deliver the perfect mix of humorous, heartfelt and memorable sentiments for that once-in-a-life-time speech.

What is the difference between the Custom Toast Service and Personalized Instant Toast?

The Custom Toast Service is just that - a custom writing service that crafts an original wedding toast for you based on your answers to specific questions. Our writers will often contact you for additional information to ensure your toast truly captures your feelings and sentiments. The Personalized Instant Service takes a few pieces of personal information and adds them to a toast, which is then delivered to you instantly by e-mail.

Who writes the toasts?

ThePerfectToast.com employs a staff of talented writers who have extensive public speechwriting experience. Our backgrounds range from network television comedy writing, executive speechwriting for Fortune 1000 companies, columnists for wedding publications, to article writing for online humor magazines. This unique combination of skills allows us to provide our customers with the perfect blend of humorous, heartfelt and memorable sentiments for their toast. The level of writing expertise available through ThePerfectToast.com is not typically available to the general public and would be cost prohibitive if secured independently.

Do I need to answer all the questions?

Answer only those questions you want, but the more complete the information you give us, the better your custom toast will be. If you want to provide information not covered in the questions, go right ahead.

What if I want changes made to my custom-written toast?

We want you to be completely happy with your custom-written toast, which is why we offer one (1) rewrite. Simply e-mail us with the changes you'd like made and we'll do our best to accommodate your request. Please note that re-writes are NOT available on Personalized Instant Toasts. We do not issue refunds on any Custom or Personalized Instant Toast.

Is it just for guys?

ThePerfectToast.com is for any member of the wedding party who needs a toast for the special occasion. So, whether you're the bride, the groom, maid of honor, best man, groomsmen, bridesmaids, parent of the bride or groom -- we can help create the perfect toast for you. If you aren't part of the wedding party, we can still help. Simply pick the category that most closely relates to your relationship with the bride and groom, fill in that questionnaire, and just be sure to let us know your status in the wedding. We'll contact you directly if we have additional questions.

How long does it take to receive my toast?

Your custom-written toast will take between two and three business days to complete. Please see chart for specific delivery schedule. Rush orders are completed in 24 hours. Your toast will be delivered by e-mail, so if you don't receive it on time, please contact us immediately. Personalized Instant toasts are sent by e-mail and should arrive within minutes of ordering. If you don't receive it right away, please contact customer service.

What if I want to co-deliver the toast with someone else?

Co-presenting a toast is not a problem for customers of our Custom Toast Service. Simply indicate the names of the toast givers and explain that you want to have the toast split up for two people to deliver.

What if I need a rehearsal toast and a wedding toast?

If you need a rehearsal dinner toast and a wedding reception toast, you can choose that option and receive both toasts at a discount. You will only be asked to fill out one questionnaire, but we will contact you for additional information to be used in the second toast.

What is the free coaching session?

Our free one-on-one coaching session is designed to help nervous toast giver prepare for the big occasion. If you have questions about the timing and delivery of your toast, we'll be happy to walk you through it. And if you need some tips and techniques for getting through your toast without crying, laughing, or freezing up, we can help. We want you to give the toast of a lifetime, which is why we offer this unique service. If you choose to take advantage of this service, we will be in touch with you by e-mail to set up a time for your one-on-one coaching session.
