Would it be appropriate to ask a good friend who is a Jehovah's Witness to make a toast on a bridegroom at a wedding?
Well, it would be up to your friend whether he/she would do it (concious matter) but as you would probably be aware, the practice of toasting is to ward of evil spirits (when the glasses clink together) because they are frightened of the noise. So that is why Jehovah's witnesses tend not to do that. But of course it is up to your friend, and if they decide not to, then why not ask him/her to give a speech at the wedding. I hope you have fun at the wedding =).
