Are you a little nervous about the upcoming wedding? You're not the
bride, groom, or maid of honor--so what's the problem? You're the best man and
you're expected to give a speech. They'll be taping it--and if you flop, you'll have
the rest of their lives to try and live it down.
Are you going to open with a joke? A sappy story? A cliche? What can you possibly say to let everyone know that you take your responsibility seriously--but that this isn't too serious--It's fun, and love, and friendship--AAACK!
Deep breaths, I've found a few tips for you.
- Remember these are your friends--tell them a story, be comfortable.
- It gets easier once you open your mouth and start talking.
- You will most likely be introduced by a Master of Ceremonies.

Once you've written that speech, the editor here will even give you a free second opinion. Sometimes that brilliant 2:00 AM writing doesn't quite stand up to the light of day--trust me!
