A wedding is an important event, and being a groom, best man or father of the bride

it is a unique honor that most people only get to enjoy once or a few times. However,

as honorable as it is, few people really expect to do so. There is pressure on

you to give an impressive and memorable speech, often in front of a large audience,

and not spoil the big day.

There are a number of simple tips that help you write an outstanding speech.

We’ve listed our personal top 10 below.

10) Divide your speech into several sections: introduction, middle and closing. Make a note of

Some ideas for each. Ask yourself a few questions, such as: why did they choose you?

As a best man, what are the most important things you have to say about the bride or groom?

and remember any funny (but positive!) anecdotes you might know about them.

the public will know you. It is also the right place to say a few words of thanks to the

wedding hosts (mainly the parents of the bride or groom). The introduction

it is important because many people are focused on you and will remember it better.

8) After the introduction, a joke to brighten up the atmosphere and get the attention of

audience is a good idea. However, it is a good idea to get another person’s opinion.

in your joke if it is unconventional. Not everyone can share your sense of humor, and

there are few things that spoil the impression more than a joke that nobody laughs at.

7) In the middle of your speech, you can tell a (brief!) story about how you met the boyfriend

or girlfriend, your ideas about their marriage (positive of course), how do you think

relationship has changed them, and what it might bring in the future. Avoid any ex-girlfriend

using notes at this stage is fine, try to avoid just reading them out loud. Instead, try

paraphrase freely and convey the feeling.

and a relationship with listeners. Do not move or make other nervous gestures.

3) Take your time to talk. It’s common for people to talk too fast when they’re nervous.

Try to avoid this by consciously speaking in a calm and relaxed tone. Don’t be too quiet

especially if you don’t have a microphone. Pause after key sentences.

2) It’s a good idea to write your toast or the basic structure of your speech on a note card.

and practice giving the speech a few times in front of a mirror.
