No cursing or embarrasing stories–make them proud they chose you as best man, rather than cringing on their special day…tell a personal story about how you knew they were right for each other or how happy he is now that he’s found her…people love that stuff, and you’ll be a big hit!

Doesn’t matter what you say, as long as you aren’t drunk while giving the toast, everything should work out fine.

bring up a funny time that he cheated on the bride or how you use to catch him doing the nasty all the time. talk about how bad his poop smells and how you always had a crush on the bride. pull out your johnson.

Say how they are the perfect couple. How he better take good care of her. How he’s such a great guy that you know that taking care of her isnt going to be a problem.
Please no reminising on the stupid things the groom has done in the past. Also, stay away from any sarcastic or immature jokes, or anything that’s going to make the bride (and even the groom) feel uncomfortable. Dont talk about exes obviously.
You’re his best friend so you know the kind of person he is. Speak from the heart. I know men pretend they dont know how to do that, but you guys do you just try to hide it.
And dont forget to congratulate them at the end.

Be sober and be short. No embarassing stories or inside jokes. Complement the bride and say how lucky she is to end up with your friend. If you are done in under thirty seconds you probably did it right.

Be sincere. How did you know they were right for each other? What makes them great people? He’s your best friend for a reason, mention some of the qualities that made him your best friend and how that will translate into their relationship. Compliment the bride. Everyone loves funny stories if you have one, just make sure it doesn’t embarass the bride or groom.

You could have a personalized poem about the couple written for you. You could read it but it would be much better to memorize it and then give it to them in a handpainted bottle as a keepsake to cherish forever. If you like that idea and need help email ipoem4u at yahoo.
