As the groom’s best friend, best man wedding speech is a perfect opportunity to show comrade and tell the world all you and the groom’s have been to. An event to enlighten the good side of bachelorhood; best men speech require not only stories but also wishes and have to be delivered in a manner not as serious as former speeches. To create a wonderful best men speeches that worthy of remembrance, there are few steps.

• Starts early; as soon as your best friend tells you that you got the job. This way you can write, re-write and improve your speech as much as you like. A rush speech done the night before the ceremony is unlikely to become a good speech, much less the best.

• Converse with the groom’s family and his other friends. This way you can get the memorable moments as much as possible; and well, to avoid sore subject and figurative land mines.

• Plan your speech structure and outlines. This will allow you to keep in track and not rambling along. Throw in some jokes or embarrassing stories you deemed save to share and will not embarrassed the groom and you are good to go.

• Write those pointers on note cards; you could put these on your pocket to help your deliver your speech in case you got tongue tied and forget.

• Discuss with the maid of honor about who will deliver the speech first.

• A speech like this had to have a congratulatory part dedicated to the parents of the groom. No matter where you are and how the atmosphere of the wedding, always throw some light jokes. Speak louder and clearer so that people could hear you.

• Raise the glass and invite a toast to bride and groom.

• Strike a balance and formality in your speech; write something based on your memorable experience with the groom.

• The basic structure for best men speech is more or less: Joke-emotional experience-joke-toast. Make sure you deliver the transition smoothly.

• Don’t read the text; just write down pointers. Reading text in your best friend’s wedding will bore the guest.

• Don’t step on the proverbial land mines: The groom’s past relationship (there will be no mention about ex, period.), stories of partying and womanizing, making fun of the bride or the parents from both sides

• Don’t get drunk; a glass or two to loosen your nerve is good, ten and slurring through your speech is disaster.

• Holding the microphone at least 5 cm from your mouth.

• Raise your glass and invite all the guest for a toast to bride and groom
