Can you give a speech?
What if you feel moved to say something during a virtual reception? Should you just start chatting? Should you drop a note in the Zoom chat and ask to speak? As with many aspects of Zoom wedding etiquette, it’s a good idea to cover these things with the couple before the event. It gets awkward for a couple to have to reject your request to make a speech in front of everybody in the same way it’s awkward at a real wedding when someone has to grab the microphone out of the drunk relative’s hand before they happen to say something everyone will regret.
