Feeling the butterflies in your stomach just before giving the best man wedding speech? Not sure if you should be funny or serious? Witty or emotional? Long or short? Delivering a best man wedding speech is indeed a challenging task. It is an embarrassing moment for the bride and the groom and a demanding moment for the best man.
Amongst all the speeches delivered in a wedding perhaps the best man wedding speech is the toughest of them all. Everyone expects you to come up with funny stories and hilarious anecdotes. But what if your mind can't think of the funny moments and goes blank? Or what if you get carried away and end up completely embarrassing the newly weds?
While delivering a best man wedding speech always remember that the speech should not have forced humour in it. Dragging stories in your speech like how miser the bride's mother is and what a chatter-box her Aunt is might not be a very good idea. It can lead to embarrassing and awkward moments.
Be careful of not getting drunk too much before giving your speech. This is a common mistake that a best man makes. Taking a drink or two is fine but if you drink too much then you can end up saying anything! You must not get carried away and offend someone.
