I’m not a public speaker by any standard, but I actually really enjoyed delivering this on the day. My tip for anybody currently in the writing phase, try and make the beginning paragraph(s) as easy to deliver as possible, because as soon as I stood up it suddenly became rather difficult to remember, regardless that I could easily at home. The George Clooney reference is from a had cuff prank on the stag do. It would of been a fairly in-joke to use on the day, if it wasn’t for it circling rather quickly before the speeches.

I'd just like to say that looking at this website really helped me get some inspiration and ideas for my speech when my mind went blank. It is not an easy task putting a best man speech together that is good and delivering it. I have uploaded my speech because I hope that my example here too gives inspiration and helps other best men compile an excellent speech too. I don't care how many stars you give me. I just hope that my example is a great help to other people doing the same thing for their best friends, brothers etc. Whoever you are reading this passage. I wish you good luck delivering y

A speech delivered by joint best men. Utilising a TV screen with accompanying PowerPoint Presentation & a music player. Other props included a ridiculously large pile of paper for each of us at the beginning of the speech, and a genuine ten pound note....

I actually sat down to a standing ovation and received many handshakes at the night reception from people who had not attended the Afternoon Reception but had heard second hand from friends who had heard the original speech. Unfortunately I still was not addressed by anyone as What you having to drink Neil.
