What the Doorbell Barbers Toast Looks Like (And 5 Examples You’ll Want to Steal)
At Doorbell Barbers, we believe the wedding day isn’t just about fresh cuts and hot towel shaves — it’s about creating a moment. One of our favorite traditions during every groomsmen session is the Doorbell Barbers Toast — a short, heartfelt, and slightly badass send-off to the groom and his crew before the ceremony begins.
It’s not a best man speech.
It’s not a roast.
It’s a pause. A moment to honor the bonds between the groom and his closest friends — while everyone looks their absolute best.
🥃 What Makes the Doorbell Barbers Toast Special?
Delivered after all grooming is done (yes, photo-ready)
Everyone is gathered, suited up, and usually holding a bourbon or whiskey tumbler
We include cigars, music, and even a custom cigar box for the groom to sign
It’s short, powerful, and custom to the vibe of the crew
Ends with a unified “To the groom!” and a solid clink of glasses
🍻 5 Doorbell Barbers Toast Examples You Can Use
1. Classic Gentleman’s Toast
“Gents — today we’re not just sending off our brother into marriage. We’re standing with him as men who’ve laughed, fought, grown, and celebrated together. May this next chapter bring him even more strength, wisdom, and love. To the groom — sharp as hell, and ready for forever.”
2. Brotherhood Over Everything
“To the crew that’s stood by each other since day one — through breakups, bad haircuts, and even worse decisions. Today, we show up looking our best for the guy who’s always had our backs. Let’s raise one to brotherhood, loyalty, and looking damn good while doing it. To the groom!”
3. Modern Love, Timeless Style
“In a world of instant everything, what we’re witnessing today is something rare — commitment, intention, and love that lasts. Let’s raise a glass to our brother, who reminds us what real loyalty looks like — and does it in a tux. To the groom, and the marriage that starts now.”
4. The Groom’s Inner Circle
“Gentlemen — not everyone makes it to this room. We were chosen to be here. So today, we honor our guy. The one who’d carry us home if we ever needed it. Who’s now stepping into a new kind of strength — as a husband. Let’s send him off the right way. To the groom!”
5. Funny + Real
“Here’s to the man of the hour — cleanest haircut in the game, soon-to-be husband, and the only guy we trust to still be friends with after he gets married. May your wife love your jokes as much as we do, and may your fade never fade. To the groom!”
🕯️ The Toast is a Moment of Pause
Right before the chaos, the nerves, and the aisle walk — the toast reminds the groom he’s not alone. That he's surrounded by real ones. That he's ready.
At Doorbell Barbers, we don’t just deliver sharp looks — we deliver moments.
