subject: 6 Things You Should Consider Including In Your Best Man Speech [print this page]


The one speech at weddings everyone looks forward to is the best man speech. It can be either highly entertaining or mind-numbing boring. What you really want your speech to be is sincere and genuine. To make that happen use these 6 tips to help you make your best man speech perfect

The best man is usually the master of ceremonies and at the same time, it's his duty to take care of the groom until the wedding reception. The best man also looks after the bridesmaids, parents, and tries to solve any problems. When you prepare your speech make it about how you feel about your best friend, the groom. That is why he picked you for his best man.

As you're the best man you're either a brother or best friend to the groom. Most friends are happy for their friends so it stands to reason that you shouldn't humiliate or embarrass the groom but use subtle teasing to make his squirm a little. Using these 6 subjects in your speech will take care of most areas. These topics are in addition to introducing yourself, giving thanks and comments about the bridesmaids, parents, and those who helped with the wedding.

1. Your relationship with the groom. 2. How the groom behaved during courting the bride. Give it a little twist. 3. How the groom asked you to be his best man. Lay it on thick. 4. How the groom met the bride. Make it funny even if you have to embroider a little. 5. Emphasize how the groom changed since meeting his love. 6. Make the toast personalize with witty comments.

Duties of the best man include keeping track of the groom until the reception. You can use your humor to create amusement during your speech. You can also use some props such as a presentation, photographs of you and the groom, or any other funny images. Including these 6 topics makes your best man speech perfect.

Best man speeches should be anywhere between 5 to 7 minutes, otherwise you run the risk of putting the guests to sleep. These 6 subjects mentioned above will keep the guests entertained (and thus engaged) and with a little teasing to the bride and groom your best man speech will be wonderful.
