If you mean in a few minutes and it's done..... I can't help you.

But if you mean in a day or so; then listen up....


All you have to do is stand up...... then ask every guy that has been roommates with the groom at any point to also stand with you...then tell her that you, and every other guy standing has lived with "groom" and that all of you collectively know what she is in for and all of you "collectively" will be her support network as they begin their life together. Everyone will enjoy the commentary and you haven't offended anyone.

I was in your shoes back in the mid 80s. I literally went to the library to research the kind of things I should say. At least you have the whole Internet to find that information rather easily!

Searching Reddit for best man toast was a life saver for me. That and the open bar.

Say hi. Say you want to tell a story to show what they're like. Tell it (make sure it's PG, etc.). Say how that ties in to how he and she are great for each other, and how he'll be great for her, etc. Witty final line. ????? Profit.

As long as you speak from the heart and are sincere it will be fine. And don't lose the wedding rings tomorrow.

Get buzzed, keep it 'off the cuff', and talk about all the crazy shite you used to do together, then end with a "Congratulations"

Your welcome.

You should be drunk, you're doing best man wrong. Also, be prepared for it to be cut short by the reception hall, they made me move on after like 2 minutes.

The funniest one I've ever heard was at a Wedding Rehearsal Dinner.I was a Groomsman and so was the guy that gave it.

All her family,Grandparents and such,that the Groom so wanted to impress,were there.

A bunch of generic Toasts.

Then he stood up.I'm sure he was pre-buzzed because it was the most dry Wedding I've ever been a part of.

"Ok,enough of the candy-coated bullshite."

He basically roasted him over the fact that when he was out of H.S. he worked at the Beach for 3-4 years.Every time he came back to Town he had changed his appearance.One year he came back and his hair was blonde.Next it was an earring.Then a tattoo.

You could see him shrinking in his chair.
