I think it's a shame that she's not just your daughter, but rather your adopted daughter.

If you love her, then just mention that and how happy you are for her. There's no need to bring up the adoption - I assume she's old enough to understand that she was 'chosen' and that makes her special. No need to make her feel different or like an outsider by bringing it up again.

Good luck to you. : )

the site below with help you make a poem. good luck



From a mother to her daughter
Celebrating your big day
Is truly so extraordinary
In each and every way.

I'm sure that not all mothers
Have a daughter quite like you
So warm, so dear, affectionate
And yes, so caring, too.

While we've had our rows, that's for sure
I want for you to know
The tenderness I feel for you
Always seems to grow and grow.

As a sister you're phenomenal
You and Elliott, joys to see
The two of you, my children dear
Branches of a single tree.

Your style, your grace, your loveliness
It really warms the heart
And makes me sentimental
For our days right from the start.

I can't forget it, never will
Thoughts always in my head
Of how we played our Scrabble games
And how we cuddled so in bed.

When you became an older girl
So thoughtful to the core
The way you loved Papa Ernst
And doted on Mama Dora.

I think of all the settings
I think of all the poses
I think of how you earned, with love
Your father's yellow roses.

But sometimes we'd go at each other
A mother and daughter - mad to hopping
Thank goodness we always shared a passion
For going out and shopping.

And now you're in the city
A place of glamour, light and forces
Working with great import
Amongst lawyers and human resources.

Your oldest friends are still right here
All close - and all still care
There's Emma, Joanne and Deborah
Liz, Lisa and yes, there's Claire.

A testament to your qualities
Of soul and something sweet
Of time, respect and values
That can truly not be beat.

It's like the love that comes to you
From Aunt Wendy with whom you bond
And Godmother, dear Barbara, who adores you
From across the pond.

Now you've found your love, your joy
With ardor that will not lack
You haven't changed, you're just the same
A Green that's turning Black.

Dear Adam is so lucky
Danielle, you're lucky, too
To find each other, to make a life
When both will say "I do."

So darling daughter, light of my life
With whom I've often fought
Just know love lasts forever
I've learned it - just as you have taught.

On this sweet occasion
Of marriage and love that's truly clearest
Please note my darling daughter
You will always be our dearest.

There's nothing more to say, Danielle
At this point all is known
Except to put these tender thoughts
In words all of my own.

Now that you've found the man you love
On this your wedding day
No tear of mine could mar your joy
As I send you on your way.

Grateful for those special years
When you belonged to me
Treasuring within my heart
Each precious memory.

Now your home is miles away
But I'm more than glad to see,
That you have found your own true love
That's the way it's meant to be.

Thank you for the years we had
And the love you gave to me.

Love

Mom

How old was she when you adopted her?

I would start by telling her how proud you are of her. Then make note of things she did as a child. Did she play dress up and pretend to be a bride? Walking through the house with your high heels on? Or did she swear that she would never get married? Make the toast from your heart and dont worry too much about impressing the guests and make it more of a messege from you to her. She will be touched by anything that you say.

It doesn't matter if she is adopted or biological, be proud of her and the amazing accomplishments she has made along they way to being a bride.
Just give the toast from the heart.

She is your daughter. Tell her how important she is to you, speak about her strengths, and the decisions that have brought her to where she is. Toast her choice of a wonderful husband, and wish love, prosperity, and strength.

I dont think that by saying she is adopted would make a difference, but i feel that if you raised her, she is your daughter, and nothing can change that!

I hope you don't mention that she's adopted, as you did in your question. She should just be your daughter, and I hope the toast would be as beautiful as though it would be for your naturally born child - in fact, even more.

well never say adopted daughter in the speech just say to my loving daughter or words like that
if it was me it would be simple along the lines of the joy of being her dad and how much she means to you and yours and wish her only the best for her and that you will be there after she is married
i wish you good luck and just enjoy

Why do you call her your adopted daughter instead of your daughter? That is offensive. Don't you love her?
