The whole best man speeches thing causes a lot of angst for the impending best man. Because truth told most of us are not:
a) Professional speakers
b) Professional speech writers
c) Comfortable speaking in front of a group
d) Natural joke tellers
Which seem to be ALL of the things that a best man has to be with the best man wedding toast.
There is another way though. And it is a beautiful marriage between modern technology with professionalism.
You can in fact download a Best Man Speeches Kit that has over 20 pre-written best man speeches. These are created by men who are professional scriptwriters who do have experience delivering best man speeches.
What also comes with the kit are important tips on how to deliver the speech and also some very funny jokes & one liners.
So why am I telling you all of this?
Well honestly - this Best Man Speeches kit saved my husbands bacon. At our own wedding, our dearly loved best man tanked. He completely lost it and is still not completely over it - and we love him no less.
And then a while later my husband was also due to give a speech - and not surprising the experience at our own wedding was not far from our mind.
So being avid online shoppers we thought we'd take a look at what was out there.
And we were delighted with what we found (I guess we are even more so now, because they worked - more on that later!).
So here's my husband and I looking these pre-written speeches over. Our biggest reservation was how would they fit with the particular bride and groom in question.
I can't explain it in words - all I can say is that they do! Maybe the speech writers are related to Santa's Elves? As looking over them - there were 16 of the 20 we could have used! Which is a pretty good choice to have!
But, as we know - things may look good on the surface. Do they actually do the job required?!
First up - my husband was WAY more relaxed going into the whole speech giving thing.
AND
It went so well he got a huge round of applause with many standing! That was a buzz!
So this is truly a no BS suggestion.
We ARE spreading the word - because we've been on both sides. Experienced it when it's gone horribly, HORRIBLY wrong.
And then using this approach and seeing it go down well with all involved on the day.
