Speech by Andy Dougall

Speech Type: Best man
Speech Creator: Andy Dougall
Speech Date: Jan2006
Ladies and Gentleman I would like to thank DUMMY I mean Tommy for his kind words about the bridesmaid and the flower girl and may I add how lovely they look.

Now wouldn't you agree ladies and gents that Pamela looks absolutely stunning whereas Tommy just looks stunned.

Now for those who don't know me my name is Andy and I am the best man but after this speech I might be a dead man. That all depends.

Tommy and I have been great friends for a long time now so when he asked me to be his best man I was more than happy to oblige. I first met Tommy back in 1984, back then we were pretty normal kids, dodgy bikes, dodgy clothes and dodgy haircuts but normal or at least I was.

A few years later Tommy introduced me to his soldering iron and he became a right Jim'll fix it, stereos, videos and cb's, you name it he could fix it but if there was one thing he couldn't fix it was his hair. This boy was an nightmare when it came to his hair.

When we used to go out by the time Tommy had done his hair it was last orders at the bar. He couldn't even go to the ice cream van without fixing his hair, but that was then and this is now and I am sure you will all agree that he has well and truly fixed himself up with Pamela who is a great girl.

I would also like to say that I know Tommy's parents are no longer with us but I am sure they would have been very proud on this special day.

Telegram Time

Well it's nearly time for me to shut up but before I go I would like to thank you all for coming and hope you all enjoy the rest of the day.

Now all that remains is for us all to toast the happy couple. Ladies and gentleman please be upstanding and raise your glasses to Tommy and Pamela the bride and groom.
