Wedding speech or toast

A timed 2–3 minute wedding toast with one story, a light laugh and a clear raise-your-glass close. Paste this prompt into ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok or Claude, change the parts in brackets to suit you, and generate.

Written for
ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Claude
Status
Tested 9 Oct 2026 in Grok, 9 Oct 2026 (one run; model id not exposed)
Test settings
The page's exact default prompt was run once in Grok on 9 Oct 2026. The default details already written on the page were the input. They are illustrative, not a record of a real event. ChatGPT and Gemini were not used. The first result was kept.
Variability
A different set of details, or another run, will change the wording. This is the first result for the defaults on this page.
Prompt
Write a wedding toast I will deliver as the groom's elder brother at Rohan and Meera's wedding.

Material to use:
- How I know them: I grew up sharing a room with Rohan; I met Meera three years ago
- One story or detail to build around: Rohan practised making Meera's favourite chai for weeks before meeting her parents

Structure:
1. Opening line that introduces me in one sentence.
2. The story, told simply, with one light, kind laugh (no embarrassing secrets, no exes, nothing that excludes guests).
3. What I see in them as a couple.
4. A closing wish and a clear "please raise your glasses to…" line.

Length: about 2 minutes spoken (roughly 130 words per minute). Write it in short lines so it is easy to read aloud, and mark natural pauses with "/".

Rules: Use only the facts I gave; do not invent anecdotes, names or dates. Keep it respectful for a mixed family audience.

After the toast, give me 3 delivery tips and offer a 60-second version.

Example output

Actual tested output. The notes used for this result are an example, not a real event. This box is not copied. Replace the notes above with your own before you paste the prompt.

I am Rohan's elder brother. /
We grew up sharing a room. /
When I speak about him, I speak as that brother.

I want to tell one story, and only one. /
Before Rohan met Meera's parents, /
he practised making her favourite chai. /
He did not do it a single time and hope. /
He practised for weeks. /
The same drink. /
Her favourite. /
So that when he sat with her parents, /
the cup would be ready. /
If you take a kind laugh from this, take it from that. /
He prepared for a cup of tea /
the way other people prepare for a speech. /
Nothing here is a secret, /
and nothing here is meant to embarrass him. /
It is care, done in advance.

I met Meera three years ago. /
What I see in them as a couple is that same care. /
Rohan prepared for Meera. /
He put weeks into something as ordinary as her chai /
before he faced her parents. /
Today that care is not a practice for a visit. /
Today they marry. /
The story is small on purpose. /
I do not have a longer list, and this wedding does not need one. /
The weeks of chai are enough. /
It is how I know the way he shows up for her.

Please raise your glasses to Rohan and Meera. /
May their home keep the warmth of the chai he practised. /
May they go on choosing each other /
in ordinary hours, /
not only in a room like this one.

Delivery
1. Read it once aloud. Pause at each /. Do not add a story at the microphone.
2. Look up when you say Rohan and Meera, then return to the page.
3. If you laugh, keep it on the weeks of chai practice only. Do not reach for a private joke.

60-second version
I am Rohan's elder brother. We grew up sharing a room, and that is the place I speak from. /
Before he met Meera's parents, he practised making her favourite chai for weeks. Not once. Weeks. /
That is the kind laugh: he prepared for a cup of tea the way other people prepare for a speech. Nothing here is a secret, and nothing is meant to embarrass him. /
I met Meera three years ago. What I see in them is that same care. He prepared for her, and today they marry. /
Please raise your glasses to Rohan and Meera. May their home keep the warmth of that chai, and may they keep choosing each other in ordinary hours.
