| 704179 | 2008-09-10 21:36:00 | BTW, something many people forget to do before the wedding service is to eat and drink (not alcohol). You have probably seen the Funniest Videos on telly, of the groom - or someone else standing at the ceremony - fainting and keeling over, or vomiting. You may not be able to stop the ring bearer or flower girl from eating junk food, but you can ensure the groom is not drunk, dehydrated or starving! Lastly, no matter who he is, when the groom stands waiting for his bride and sees the wedding procession coming down the aisle, he will be nervous as hell. A few quiet words or just a glance from you will give him the support he needs. Yes I have done sound for many weddings and it's always the best man that faints. count: Best man 4 Trumpet player for wedding march 1. |

| 704180 | 2008-09-10 22:17:00 | I used this site www.hitched.co.uk and a couple of others for amusing lines and short jokes recently. Assuming the other guy is the Groomsman nothing wrong with him doing a speech - just do yours first. If you are really worried, keep your own speech short, please keep it clean (as advised above), and practise it until you can say it in a natural voice. Imagine you are talking, with warmth and affection, to someone at the back of the room - project your voice. Was in a similar situation to you some years ago except the groomsman had a speech impediment. Once I realised this I rearranged the telegrams and messages which he and I read out alternately. He did the short genuine ones and I did the ones we'd found on the net......:D |

| 704181 | 2008-09-10 22:18:00 | I am going to be the best man at my friend's wedding, and I'm appealing to you for tips on what I have to do. Ask your friend what he wants you to do or not do. |

| 704182 | 2008-09-10 22:57:00 | Recent weddings I have been to have had a Master of Ceremonies for the reception, and depending on their level of skill and sobriety at the time, this can make things a lot easier for you as BM. The particular order in which the speeches will be given will be sorted out by them with the wedding party. | John H (8) | ||

| 704184 | 2008-09-21 06:39:00 | I survived the night & everyone commended me on my speech, so I must have done a good job even though I was shaking like a leaf. The weather was great and even the traditional troublemakers didn't make a scene. That was a miracle that is not likely to be repeated in Invercargill. I always thought that the major cost of wedding clothes was for the bride & bridesmaids dresses, but the suit hire cost $600 for 3 suits :eek: |
