There comes a time when it seems like everyone is getting married. Through our 20s and 30s, the inbound wedding announcements seem to be nonstop.

Finding the words to capture the celebratory spirit for one friend after another can be tricky. Maybe you see one couple as an example, and you’ve seen another friend as her best self in a healthy relationship. You’re happy for each of them, but you can’t instantly get every message right.

That’s why there are wedding quotes for friends. Some are perfect wedding quotes for Instagram, too, because they’re short and shareable. Marriage, after all, is a public proclamation. Razzing a friend on social media can be a fun way to spread the news.

Wedding toast quotes for everyone who’s handed the mic.
