English Central - Hallmark Brother of the Bride



Here is a funny commercial for the greeting card company Hallmark.  In it the brother of the bride is giving a toast.  A toast is a short speech given in honor of someone followed by everyone taking a drink together.    At a wedding several toasts are given by different people.

  1. About wedding topic, I wonder that what can be gifts for the couple. In my country, it is almost money packed in envelope. And, is there any special wedding traditions in your hometown? I look forward to listening to your sharing on Tuesday.
    thanks a lot :)

    1. Money is a good gift in the US also but gifts for the house are very common. Couples make a special list of all the things they would like and the colors and patterns they like. Then a guest can look at the list and pick something to buy them. The list includes things like kitchen appliances, silverware, dishes, towels, and so on. The list is called a gift registry or a wedding registry.
