5 Smart Last Minute Best Man Speech Tips
Well, it’s hard to guess if you did or did not prepare for your best man speech. Since you are reading this I think you are not ready for your best man speech yet. At least not to your satisfaction, I guess. However, I could be wrong. May be you are ready with your speech and want to make it even better.
Let’s imagine that you have to give the best man speech tomorrow around this time. What if tomorrow is the wedding day and you are expected to deliver an entertaining best ma speech at the wedding reception. Are you ready for it? What do you say?
Anyway, here are 10 last minute best man speech tips that will help you present a good best man speech. I assume that your speech is already written but you are yet to grasp it fully.
- Firstly you would want to rehearse your best man speech a few more times.
- Get a card or a neat piece of paper and write down the main points of your best man speech. You can keep it in your hand and have a look at it if you ever need a cue while giving your speech. Write down that hilarious joke you picked up last night from a book and the one-liner from Leo Tolstoy you found while browsing the web . . . you got the idea. However, it would be great if you don’t have to use it.
- Be sure about the order of the wedding speech. Generally best man speeches are given by the best man after the father of the bride and the grooms have spoken. But you would not want any confusion here. Simply ask the MC before the wedding reception formally begins.
- Make sure you know the names of the people and the places you are going to mention in your speech. If you are yet to meet the bride ask the groom to tell you a little bit about her. It’s important that you figure out how a person is the bride. Is she calm and serious or is she fun loving. You could adjust your speech accordingly.
- Finally, you would want to rehearse your best man speech a few more times.
By the way, I would like you to emphasize specially on tips number 1 and 5. The secret of successful best man speeches begins and ends with those two tips. Period.

Why it is important to have well thought out opening lines for your Best Man Speech
Well, I scrolled down to see all the posts I have already posted on best man speeches and couldn’t find a post on best man speech openers. Wonder how I missed that since your whole best man speech will depend on the opening lines. It’s very important that you get a head start with your speech and a perfect opening could ensure that more than anything else. You can use the opening lines of your speech to set the mood of your speech right away. What I mean to say is if you wish to give a funny best man speech your opening lines should contain hints of humor in them. In fact, creating an outstanding best man speech would necessarily mean that you begin your speech with a catchy opening line. There are several options of best man speech openers for you to consider for example the classic or traditional opening, serious openings and witty or humorous openings.
As I have already said, the opening lines of the best man speeches often lay down the mood for your speech. And at the same time it also let you know the audience’s reaction. If you have a good start you can expect to get the attention from the audience from the word go. And once you know that you have a good start then there’s no looking back.
But as always, you need to plan well in advance. It’s not easy to come up with impromptu witty best man speech openings like that. A best man speech outline is what you need to create initially. There are several best man speech introductions available online (including this site). Pick the one you like most and customize it to suit your personality. Then all you need to do is include a humorous punchline 9In my last post I have discussed about including punclines in your best man speeches) in it and that’s how you can get yourself a humorous best man speech opening if not an awesome best man speech.
