Every now and again - and increasingly so, nowadays - the bride and the groom decide that instead of having a traditional best man they will ask their best friend or a favourite sister, or even a daughter, to be their best person.

If you are a best person at a wedding, then this is a great speech for you to give

This is a fun speech... good clean humor, presented with a considerable amount of style and eloquence and ease. 

This is a well written speech - written by a professional, where the best man - (hey, that is you!) - comes across as a very likeable person, which, of course, you are.

Let us face it... we are not all cut out to be great public speakers.

In fact, if many of us are completely honest with ourselves, the very thought of having to make a best mans speech can make us feel sick with nerves.

We are waking up at night time. We are thinking about it all the time... and if we could do anything, anything at all, to get out of it, we would gladly pay a lot of money to escape. But, of course we cannot run away.

With this speech you do not have to pay a lot of money and it gets you out of a tight corner very nicely indeed. It is a super good fun speech.

I wrote this speech for a best man who gets on famously with the groom.

They are best friends. They go back a long time. They enjoy each others company. They have a good sense of humour.

Each goes to great lengths not let the other get away with anything ... without making a good-natured and very funny joke about it. And here is some of the fun... fun ...fun!

I wrote this speech for a good friend of mine who was terrified about the prospect of standing up in front of an audience and giving a best mans speech.

It really did work a charm for him. And it will work a charm for you too!

This is a best man speech for a wedding where the groom and the best man are business colleagues or partners as well as good friends.

... where the groom is successful in business and has a good eye for spotting...
