No bridal party, how to honor and include sisters?

My FH & I have decided to forego the traditional bridal party. We won't have a best man or maid of honor or anything like that. I have two sisters one whom is my twin. They are both helping me out tremendously with the wedding even though they're technically not in it. My older sister is letting me use basically all of her wedding decor from her ceremony (and pretty much my coordinator) and my twin is designing our invitations and made our wedding website. I'd love to honor them or include them in some way, but not sure how. Any ideas? I feel like some might suggest a reading at the ceremony but I know that neither of them would want to do that.

Do you think they would like to do a toast?

I have a twin too, naturally, she's my MOH!

If you don't want to go this route, the only thing I can think of is @spaghetti's advice, making a toast...

What about giving them each a nice gift and then giving them a toast when you say your thank you for coming speech at your reception.

Re: PPs- Asking them to do a toast is kind of just asking them to do one more thing, isn't it? I think thanking them in your toast is a better idea.

What about a special song that you and your sisters love like a "Sister Dance" along with the traditional "Father/Daughter" or "Mother/Son" dances? Or naming your signature drink after one of your inside jokes? Or even getting them a gift and presenting it to them during the cake cutting or something? Or treating them to mani/pedi/spa day and get ready with them as if they are your bridesmaids?

Thank them in your toast and give them a gift.
