Best Man Speech Examples

Hello hitched, Thought I'd send in my Bestman speech from 14th December 2002. It went down a storm, especially the bit about the brick. I could not have done this without such a helpfull website. Dave Kershaw

Just wanted you to have this speech.Found your site a great help and knicked a few jokes from the examples posted. Deliverd this speech on Friday the 6th Dec 2002. Went down very well. This was the 4th time I have done the Best man job.Just wanted to add it does not get any better the more you do it! Dave Griffiths

I've just come across hitched.co.uk - I didn't use the site for my best man speech, but I shall use it in the future.

Please see my speech below from my mates wedding in December 2002. Hope that you think it good enough to post on your example board Many thanks to all at your site for the excellent ideas and examples that helped me get through the day. It helped make it the most memorable day of my life and will probably only be beaten when it is my turn!! Thanks again.

Dear Hitched, This is the speech my brother delivered at my wedding recently, which I would be please for you to attach to your site. Many Thanks

Thanks for the help guys... I had a week to put together a bestman speech. What I did was looked at a few examples that were posted on your site. Then, created a short but sweet speech that went very well. I organizied it a bit differently. I created "points" and just memorized those important points that gave the speech "flow" and structure. I did add a lot of freelancing as I went along at at "gametime." It was an Italian-American wedding so there was a lot of "respect" and Godfather bullshit that I had to throw in there. In any event, it went great and maybe someone else can use it.

This speech went over great thanks for all the help. its easy to see the parts I lifted from the site, though I had to Americanize a few of the jokes, once I got writing funny stories seemed to come along (though most I had to abandon because of content or they made the future wife look bad) and with a few jokes thrown in it was a success... this speech lasted at least 15 mins. there was alot of laugh breaks... the dj at the wedding said the CD of my speech would soon follow. I was very nervous before but so glad I did it afterwords... I had queue cards and I practiced alot... like many othe

This is the Best Man's speech I gave recently. Without the help of this site, I don't know where I would have started. For me it was particularly difficult speech to write as I had only known the groom for a couple of years and had no idea of his past. Also, to make things easier for me to read I printed it out and stuck it to some card which had been treated* to look like an old scroll, tied with a ribbon. *treated = Edges were torn and burnt, some holes were made near the edges and burnt, and finally stained with a strong coffee mixture.

Dear hitched.co.uk, Congratulations on a great site - I performed my best man duties just last Friday, November 15, and found your speeches section a great help. I read several examples for a bit of guidance and they really helped me to put mine together.Anyway, here's a copy of mine for you to place on the site with the others,if you wish.Kind regards,Kevin Hughes

Dear 'Hitched', I recently found myself in the predicament of giving away a very close friend - attached is the bones of the speech. It might be useful to others. I know that your site gave me great inspiration. Keep up the good work Marc Carey

To Hitched, I have pleasure in attaching my bestman speech which I did on the 11/11/02. I did this with the aid of a hand-out consisting of embarrassing photos of the groom and it went very well with plenty of laughs. If you do choose to post my speech on your website my message at the bottom is as follows:- I started preparing this speech about 4 weeks before I had to do it, and this site was invaluable for funny one liners and giving me the faith in my speech to deliver it with confidence. It's the most daunting thing I have ever done but it's worth it for the adrenalin rush afterwards. Goo

Hi Hitched, Just letting you know that your site has world-wide appeal. Using the tips and techniques from the site (and a few jokes) gave me the confidence to deliver a great speech down here in New Zealand on November 9. Thanks to everyone who has donated their speech to the Hitched library too! Cheers, Tim Savell

this speech had everybody laughing non-stop. Many said it was the best they ever heard. best delievered after several cocktails with charm on full throttle.

Dear whoever, I would just like to thank you for providing me with some best man example speeches.Over the last few months I have been reading them from your site and gathering info from them to help me thruogh mine. The least I feel I can do is share it with other readers who face the same dilemma as I did. Trevor and Gemela Wedding Reception sat 9 Nov
