What do people say to their friends when they get married?

When people attend their friends' wedding ceremony, what do they say to their friends?

And another question related to wedding:

I remember I once saw a film called Marriage Crasher, in which people say "Mazel Tov" to when they propose a toast. But someone says that "Mazel Tov" is used by Jews, and you will get yourself into trouble if you say "Mazel Tov" to a Muslim. Is it true? What about saying "Mazel Tov" to Christians?

In Greece they say "Live well".

"Best wishes" or "All the very best for your future together" would be fine.

I take it that you yourself are not Jewish. In that case, forget "Mazel Tov" completely. There's no reason to create cognitive dissonance by saying things that are culturally inappropriate for you and for the occasion.

Say "Congratulations" to the groom. Say "Best wishes" to the bride.

Hope you two will head over **** in love This is a very strange thing to say to anybody! Do you mean "I hope you two will be head over heels in love"?

I would find it strange to say a couple on their wedding day "Hope you will be head over heels in love" - "I hope your head-over-heels love lasts forever" might be more apposite.

Thank you all very much.

I am lucky that I have asked this question, otherwise, I might make a mistake by using "Mazel Tov" in the future.

Best regards,
