Topic: Starting to get scared | |

Another idea i had, which is definately too much, but i will share anyway. Id start off looking at the couple, and say "when i was talking to people about how nervous i felt having to do this speech, they would tell me 'just imagine the crowd naked', i was going to do that but i noticed how many children were here today so i will just stare at the bride instead" Do you think i could get away with that one? |

I might possibly switch 'ugly people' for children. But that might be over the line too. Or...... "But then I realized how many of them I'd already seen naked"... and then stare at the groom. |

Im only making ONE speech! |

In just under two months i am gonna be the Best Man at my friends wedding. Which, of course, means i have to try to write and perform a funny speech. I intended to get the speech written ages ago, but except for a page of scribbles i made a while back, i have barely started. I'm not OVERLY worried about the actual writing of the speech, i can be pretty humourous when i put my mind to it. Its the performing of the speech which concerns me the most. I have never had to do any significant public speaking before. There are going to be over 150 people at this wedding, so its hardly a small crowd. So, any advice? Any stories? Any decent lines i could use? I need a good opener if anyone has one. If you are the "best man" why is she marrying someone else? |

I like it all so far, but I'd try to make sure that the entire speech isn't focused on embarassing and poking fun at him. Make sure you talk about his good points too (if he has any. He might not considering he's a friend of yours).
(oh, I just sent Regina an email) |

Im starting to think that the sentimental bits might be harder to write, the jokes are coming easier than i thought. And thanks! |

Id start off looking at the croud, and say "when i was talking to people about how nervous i felt having to do this speech, they would tell me 'just imagine the people around you un-clothed',<then look at the groom> and say i was going to do that, but then i realized i had seen one unclothed and that just made me more nervous. |

Talk about times when they dated, funny moments you observed with them.
End it with in closing may your smallest problem be your biggest. |

Remind me if I ever get married to NOT let you make a toast or give a speech! Just kidding - I love this thread! You are hilarious and I think you should start your own Mingle "column" to share with us! |
