Wedding Speech †Best Man -- Wedding Toasts Roasts Speeches

Wedding Speech – Best Man Before I begin with Leon’s character assassination, I should probably introduce myself, as a lot of you don’t know me†¦my name is Andy. My full name is actually Andy WhatcanIgetyou. For those of you who I meet in the bar later, I’d appreciate it if you could Use my full name. I’d also like to remind you, that the more you laugh at my gags the faster my speech will be delivered†¦so it’s in your own best interest†¦ I think being a best man can be a very nerve racking experience†¦(pause)†¦ if there’s one person here this afternoon feeling nervous, apprehensive and queasy about what lies ahead†¦.then it’s probably because you’ve just married Leon. Anyway, I wanted to take this opportunity, not only to demolish Leon’s reputation and character, but also to talk about Leon AND Lucy as a couple. In September 1998, Leon and I both started and met at Bath University. I think, in hindsight, going to Bath was one of the best decisions Leon ever made, as a few days in, he met Lucy.

It is an honour, albeit a most terrifying one, to have been asked to be the best man here today. But if I’m honest I do feel a certain relief to see the end of my duties in sight, as I’m totally certain that Leon will never have a need to call on met to be his best man again. As a final thought – â€Å"you don’t marry someone because you can live with them, you marry them because you simply cannot live without them†Ã¢â‚¬ ¦ Ladies and Gentlemen, please be upstanding and join me in a toast†¦ to Mr and Mrs [groom’s surname]†¦Leon and Lucy
