Humorous Best Man Speech
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Firstly on behalf of the bridesmaids, I would like to thank the groom for his kind words, and may I also say that they have done a fantastic job today and all of them look absolutely beautiful.
I'd also like to say that the bride looks absolutely stunning today as I’m sure you will all agree. Unfortunately for the wedding photographs, the groom just looks stunned.
When I was asked to be best man I consulted the Internet for help. I must confess I was perplexed by some of the things I was expected to do:
Help the groom dress. Thanks, but no thanks. If he hasn't learned by nor then he never will.
That his shoes are tied.
That his face and hair are “in order” (God

His teenage years can be defined as several years of drinking and sleeping in the bathroom, cuddled up to the toilet bowl. It’s good to know that some thing never change.
At school, he tried many sports to no avail. When he tried rugby he was told his tackle was not big enough. He tried cross country running but could not stand the pace and when it came to soccer he was useless in every position. Whether the bride can confirm those three things for us I dont know, but I hope she has more luck.
Now, of course, I’m not the only person in this room that he knows well. In fact, this place is stuffed with people that have an opinion of him. So, I thought it would be an idea to find out what some of you think of the groom. and share your thoughts at his wedding. Over the last few weeks I've been approaching his friends and colleagues. This is what just a few of you said. His boss (and I can quote him now as he's not here) said: "Working with him is like working with a God. He's rarely seen, he's holier than thou, and if he does any work it's a bloody miracle...”
Another absent colleague, rang me the other day and said: "He's really looking forward to the wedding, and especially the honeymoon, he’s been going on about it all week. One thing I can’t understand though, is why he's taken to wearing fake tan to the office.”
Unfortunately, he has also been described by someone
My younger brother got engaged while I was pregnant with my daughter. Since, both of the mother’s had passed away, I felt obligated to help my brother with the wedding plans. Arrangements were going well, and I flew to Denver to see him and his fiancé. I helped with wedding dress shopping, booking a venue, coordinating flowers, and reserving a place to have the rehearsal dinner.
Gorgeous beading, glittering sequins, and pearly white are some of the words brides use to describe their wedding dresses. Once weddings are over, brides normally take every precaution to preserve this most expensive, treasured, and prized item. Even after years of marriage, wives fondly recall the hours spent searching for the perfect dress and playfully ponder whether the beauty still fits. However, in contrast to the typical feelings associated with a bride’s wedding dress, a close reading of James Galvin’s poem “On the Sadness of Wedding Dresses” offers a unique perspective of worn wedding dresses.
Come, Eurycleia, make a bed for him in the bridal room that he built so skilfully himself. Fetch out a bedstead, you and the other women, and then put the bedding on it, fleeces and blankets and shining rugs.
Speaking of firsts, I had quite the time visiting you and tasting those numbers your husband continued to put in my hand. It was wonderful to truly hear your voice again. Your husband, now, an interesting bub… I can tell you that. I will not lie, I was uncertain about meeting your husband for the first time. After all that I heard from you, I concluded that we would not be as compatible as you and I, for example. But I thought about it. Like that English actor... do you know who James Mason is? In an interview, he once asked himself “How do I wish to be remembered, if at all?” There was no reason for me to distance myself from the lad; if he is important to you, the least I can do is promote the most comfortable atmosphere for us all. I owe you that.
Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - I am the groom's father, Ken, and I have the great privilege of being best man. I have recently found out there are two reasons why J W asked me to do this job. 1) To make him look younger and slimmer in the photos. 2) Because he didn't want to burden any of his friends with the terrible prospect of having to give this speech.
By all accounts we are lucky that the groom is here today. I have it on good authority that when he
First I?d like to thank GROOMS NAME for those kind words ? some sort of response is probably in order
of the fiend—‘I will be with you on your wedding night!’ Such was my sentence, and on
You know, while I was watching my son and future daughter-in-law suffer through the painful process of planning their wedding, I asked myself, “What would it be like if men were responsible for organizing weddings?”
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of the bridesmaids, I must thank Donald for his kind words. I must also thank all of you for coming today - I know how hard it is to get a day release.
Being married for several years now, my husband and I thought about the words of advice that we?d like to give to the newlyweds. Together we came up with this:
"So excited to share this news that we are now engaged. From both of us, thank you all for the countless well-wishes we've received during the courtship. We are so excited to take this next step in spending our lives together. We are so grateful for how the Lord has brought us together. It has been an incredible journey so far and we are excited about serving Christ together in the coming days."
“No one is seeing my pictures until after the ceremony when they are all ready.” I said when asked about the pictures (that I had not even take yet).
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. On behalf of the bridesmaids, I would like to thank Scott for his kind words. For once in my life, I find myself agreeing with him - they look stunning and did an excellent job today.
Firstly, on behalf of the bridesmaids, I'd like to thank Mike for his kind words and reiterate how wonderful they look and what a fantastic job they have done today. I would also like to say that Sallie looks stunning - as I'm sure you'll all agree. Which really isn't that much of a surprise given we are related.
