Toast to the happy couple

I had a speech, and then a toast. I had worked out the speech days in advance, but the toast came to me the night before:

I've known John and Katie long time:

I've lived with them.
I've traveled through some of Europe with them.

I could tell you some stories...

But as a favor to the new couple I'll refrain... for now.

< to the couple>
There's a few things I'd like to tell you guys before I raise a toast to you:

Katie, you look absolutely beautiful today.

John, I've never seen you look happier.

And every act of kindness, assistance, or friendship we < gesture at gathered crowd > have ever shown you, you've returned to us 10 fold.

It is for that reason that I now raise this toast to you two today:

"May the road you travel together be a happy one.

May each step be taken out of love and heralded by laughter.

And may it be a long and joyful journey."
