Your beloved brother is getting married and he has chosen you as the best man. You are feeling overwhelmed and you want to make sure your brother feels proud of you. Be warned though, the best man responsibilities have a tendency to eat up the toughest of men. As the time for the wedding draws nearer you will find your duties getting larger and the tempers of people around you shorter. Your entire family is pitching in to make sure that the wedding is a huge success.
Apart from all the responsibilities, which you are just about managing to shoulder, there is also the task of making a speech. Many people are afraid to make any kind of public speech. It scares them no end that they have to get on stage and speak in front of a hundred or so people. As the best man and the brother of the groom no less, your speech will be the measure of your relationship with your brother. So make sure you have it down to a T.
Let us give you a few tips to get through that speech-
Set time limit- Weddings are a time for everyone to make speeches and as the best man; even you will have a set amount of time at your disposal. So co-ordinate with the wedding planner and get it right.
Congratulate- offer your congratulations to the newlyweds on their wedding.
Thank – say thank you to your brother for choosing you as the best man. It goes a long way in showing your appreciation. After that, thank all the people who have attended the wedding, thank those too who have helped out in the wedding in any which way. People like to be thanked so make sure you do that. Some of the people have traveled a long distance to be here appreciating that.
Positive aspects-Talk about all the positive aspects of your brother, how he is rock of your family or how everyone turns to him in times of need and want.
Recount incidents-Since you have grown up together, you both will no doubt be very close to each other. So draw inspiration from this. Recount tales from your childhood, the emotional stories, the funny ones, the not so emotional ones. Anything which holds some meaning in your life can be mentioned.
Praise the bride- She is the newest addition to your family, make her feel welcome. Let her know how much your brother adores her. You can even congratulate your brother on his excellent choice in choosing a bride, talk about how beautiful her eyes are etc.
Talk about the journey-You can even talk about your brother’s journey with the bride. How they met, how they fell in love etc.
End by wishing the couple all the luck in the world and wish them a happy married life.
