Winning The Best Man Game: Make Certain Your Best Mans Speech Is Perfect
You’re sitting there, hunched over your computer, staring at a blank page. The last speech you wrote was in your Speech 101 class, and that was quite a few years ago. Your buddy finally popped the question to his girlfriend, and he has asked you to be the Best Man. All you have to do is stand next to him at the wedding right? Not exactly. As a Best Man, you hold a lot of responsibility and are an active participant in your friend’s wedding. One of the biggest responsibilities you have is your speech. Where do you start? What should you say? These are very common questions asked by guys like you all the time. Don’t worry, with a little good advice and some practice, you can nail your best mans speech and make your Groom proud.
Being genuine is probably your top priority. You don’t want to load your speech with messages straight out of a Hallmark card, and you definitely don’t want to give the impression that you haven’t thought about what you’re saying. Start off with a deep breath. It’s hopefully not the night before the wedding, so you can relax and write a relaxed speech. Writing a relaxed speech will help you to be more relaxed when you present it at the wedding. The key is to be relaxed. Also, forget any sort of formal structure you have ever learned when writing an essay or presentation. You don’t need a thesis or body paragraphs or anything. You want your speech to be conversational and to flow naturally. So tap into some fond memories and get ready to start your speech.
The best man speeches generally contains an introduction, some good memories of the Groom, and a final toast to the wedded couple. The speech usually falls between three to five minutes long. Any longer than that and the audience might get bored. The speech takes place during the reception and usually follows a few other speakers, such as the Father of the Bride, among others. Start your speech by introducing yourself. Make sure you address your relationship with the groom, as this heavily affects the mood and content of your speech. Whether you’re the father, son, cousin, best friend, or brother to the Groom opens different opportunities for you to add special touches to your speech.
It’s okay to keep a note card with keywords written on it. That doesn’t mean have a script. Reading from a piece of paper lacks ingenuity and reflects a lack of effort. By keeping an index card with some main ideas on it, you can glance down if you get stuck and quickly pick up where you left off. Try your best not to rely on your note card, though. Practice without it and keep it with you just as a crutch. Just relax and do what you’ve practiced, knowing you have a quick save if you need it.
Everyday people who are terrified of public speeches stand in front of a crowd and deliver their best man speechs without incident. This speech is supposed to be fun, so relax and be yourself. Everyone knows that making a speech is hard, so practice all you can and do your best.
