subject: Good Short Best Man Messages [print this page] Hi, here again with more top pointers on how you can get through the discomfort of giving the Best Man Speech at a wedding! I have done it three times, and everytime it became less complicated because I simply applied some basic ground rules. One of the key ones are, if you are undecided what to talk about, doesn't whatever you do try to pad it out. Nobody wants to sit though 15 minutes of waffle. Particularly when all they want to do is get to the bar! Also, if you are really not confident about public speaking, why would you need to subject yourself to standing there for that length of time?
In brief, keep it short, make it simple, and keep it to the point. So what are the bare necessities that you have to include in a good and short, Best Man Speech? You want to compliment the bride. Hopefully you like her, though not that much.
Hopefully she looks gorgeous. That makes it much easier, but recalls it must be a sincere compliment, and a safe, family-friendly one. Don't go mad; otherwise it will sound like you're jealous of the groom.
Next, you want to say one or two words about the groom. Ensure you thank him for asking you to be the best man, and it would not hurt to make a reference to the indisputable fact that you're not thanking him for having to make a speech. After that, you sometimes need to tell a few stories about the groom. If they're funny, then the whole better, but don't try and force smirks if they're not there.
If your stories really aren't funny, then be at liberty to add a couple of jokes, but there are a couple of rules here too. Don't tell too many - it is a Best Man Speech, not a stand up routine. Select cleverly - make sure the jokes you use are suitable for family viewing. Try them out first, in part to make certain they are funny, and also to make sure you can tell them properly.
Ultimately, you need to assert one or two words about the bride and groom as a couple, wish them well, and talk about how ecstatic and successful you're sure their marriage will be. You last task is to propose a toast to the bride and groom.
See, you are done! Was not so bad, was it? A short, sweet speech like that will last approximately 5 minutes - easy on you and easy on the audience, and if you're actually not content about the entire process, easy on you too.
