It is often given by the maid of honor, but may also be given by a relative or close friend.
• When is it given?
It may be given at any time that seems appropriate. This will vary with the type of event you are having. A formal party will often have this at the start of the meal. An informal event might have it before the cake is cut, or while the gifts are being opened.

It can be adapted to your affair. It can be anywhere from casual to very formal. Even at an informal event, you might want to have a serious tribute. Adding a comedic twist can work well at any event, as long as you keep it tasteful.
