My Best Man Speech

**srt acr** · 08-28-2008, 09:59 AM

On Saturday my best friend will be getting married and I'll be making a best man speech. This'll be my first one and I'm a little nervous. I wrote it out and have been practicing but i wanna see what you guys think. I didn't wanna roast too heavy or make it too long. I'm going for short and sweet with a few jokes mixed in...

"Excuse me everyone, if i could have your attention please. i'd like to take a couple minutes to say a few things about the bride and groom. First off, i'd like to thank the people who made this day possible - Megs parents, Joe and Franny, Rich's parent's, Rich and Maryann and of course the bride and groom, rich and meg. I feel very lucky to be a part of this incredibly special day...because anytime you have free alcohol and free food it is indeed an incredibly special day.
In case you can't tell i've never given a bestman speech before so i did a lot of research and asked around to a lot of people leading up to this. i learned that its my responsibility to sing the groom's praises and talk about what a good guy rich is - well, i can't sing and i'm a bad liar so instead i decided i was gonna tell some of my favorite sories that best exemplifies who rich really is... and then i decided that probably wasn't the best idea either. so i gave it some more thought and came up with one memory that was ok to talk about and that was the first night i met meg. right from the start i could see you too were gonna be perfect for each other. and then as i saw you two together more and more i could see why. you two balance each other out and brings qualities to the relationship that the other person may not have necessarily had. fo example, meg is smart, she's really funny and she's good looking... so you can se how there's a balance there.
In all seriousness, you're both amazing people who i feel fortunate to call such good friends and i think you're both very lucky to have each other. i think this is the part of the speech where i'm supposed to wish you guys good luck but i don't think you're gonna need it, so instead, i'm just going to say, congratulations. *raise glass* to the bride and groom. cheers!

what do u guys think? any suggestions? keep in mind, not trying to make it long and i'm not trying to take any shots at the groom that are too crazy.

its on the grooms list of things im not allowed to talk about. same goes for the weekend he spent in jail, the one night stand he had with an asian teenager or the time we drugged a girl in her house and took naked pics of her.

Tell them he's even though he can stuff a pineapple up his ass no problem, he's not gay.

Here's what I'd say...

"Excuse me everyone, if i could have your attention please. i'd like to take a couple minutes just sit right there
I'll tell you how I become the prince of a town called Bel-Air

In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys who were up to no good
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom scared
And said you're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air

I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The licensce plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought man forget it yo homes to Bel-Air

I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
And I yelled to the cabbie yo homes smell ya later
Looked at my kingdom I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel-Air"
