The last thing you want to do is lose focus when you write a best man speech. Keeping your wits about you and remembering the best man speech advice you’ve learned will go a long way in adding to a memorable evening. Take your time work at the issue at hand – entertaining the crowd.

Make it Meaningful

Your speech should first of all be meaningful for the bride and groom, as well as the guests in attendance. Should you ramble on about something that has no bearing on the occasion will simply relegate your speech to the realm of the forgotten. This day is for the happy couple, and your speech should reflect that. Use happy memories about their meeting, or events that you shared with them that showcases their love.

Funny Works if it’s Done Right

The reception mood should be light and fun, so your speech has an opportunity to add to the enjoyment of the evening. Don’t use blue humor or something that might easily offend someone. A joke can work if you’ve done your homework, or simply relate a funny story about the couple. By keeping the mood light, you will be adding to the memories of the reception guests for years to come.  Our article on ‘To Joke Or Not To Joke’ is full of great funny best man speech advice and tips in how to use humor effectively and appropriately in your speech and wedding toast.

Don’t Forget Voice Projection

You may be addressing the wedded couple directly from their table, but don’t forget about the audience in the room. Your speech is written to be shared by all, and if great aunt Gladys can’t hear you, you’ve lost your hold on the crowd. Face the audience while looking aside to the bride and groom. Make eye contact during your speech with different guests and speak so they can hear you, no matter where they are.

Bring Your Confidence

You are the subject matter expert after all. That is why you were asked to be the best man. Keep this thought in your head while you give your speech and it will help with your confidence. Speak clearly and with purpose, and don’t rush to finish. Let the crowd hear what you have to say.  You might also like to read our article about overcoming your best man speech nerves which offers some great advice and tips for your very important speech.

Using Relatable Quotes

The last thing you want to be is vague and misunderstood, so be sure to use appropriate and relatable quotes for the occasion. Remember that that not everyone in the room shares your passion for obscure trivia, so choose quotes that most people would get no matter their interests. Because everyone is at the wedding, you might consider something from the experiences of the bride and groom.
