Subject: RE: Need wedding blessing/toast in German
Hi Marion. Here's what babelfish says the toast is:
"We raise now our glasses on the well-being of the recent pair and wish we it a long life of full love. Prosit!"
(Erheben wir nun unsere Gläser auf das Wohl des jungen Paares und wünschen wir ihm ein langes Leben voller Liebe. Prosit!)
See that bar at the bottom of each post? If you click on TRANSLATE it takes you there. the second toast, Ein Langes Leben --Ein Langes Lieben. translates as: A long life -- long loving.

Notice that babelfish doesn't do "Prosit" which I always thought meant "health". Oh well.
Blessings,
Barbara
