Grand-Maman m'a raconté
(Les éditions des amitiés franco-québécoises)

Hello, dear
also of note today: when i went to the shops a lady with big hair and wearing several dresses asked me for a pound coin, and when i said i didn't have one she told me, very sternly, that she was an anglo-saxon :catdrugs:

...Burnley didn't make the list because London it seems, outside of Luton, truly is a loving awful place to live. 9/10 is a pretty solid score.

Email some of the groom's close friends and collect some stories.

Mention how beautiful his bride to be is, throwaway comment early on. Do not dwell. Alternatively do dwell and tell her that she has made a big mistake and should be with you.

Talk about shock at him finding a wife because of ineptness on a date, but not about proper exes.

Be funny.

Start the speech asking the bride to put her hand on the table, and the groom to put his hand on top of hers, and to keep it there till the end of the speech. Then at the end say that your final gift to the groom was for him to get the upper hand for the last time ever in their relationship, and point to camera

the groom for me is a big wrestling fan so I am debating the use of folding chairs / Undertaker's theme in the speech

Look up best man speeches on youtube, steal the jokes you think will work.
Remember that everyone present wants you to succeed, try not to piss this goodwill away.
Most brides will straight-up murder you if you ruin their wedding day, possibly tell her in advance what you're planning on saying so she can veto any bits involving her that her family shouldn't hear. The groom gets no such veto powers.
Mock the groom, but remember this isn't a night in the pub. Frankie Boyle is very good at his act. You are not. Do not copy him.
Keep it short. This allows you to make a 'speech as long as the groom lasts in bed' joke, which usually goes down well ("Like the bride!!!!1111eleventy")

Heres some more Top Speech Tips from Taff.

- Make a joke about looking up tips on the internet, but getting side tracked by some other websites, and then say youve listed them on a piece of paper for the groom so he can check them out now hes married (when I gave my mam away at her wedding I said that I'd looked up my role and saw it was called "Brides Escort" so had looked up advice on becoming an escort, everyone loved it)

- For those of you who dont know me, my name is Taff. For those of you who do, I apologise. Not a lot of people know my full name is actually Taff Would-You-Like-A-Drink, and if you do meet me at the bar later I'd prefer you use my full name

- I have never been a best man before, and I am not renowned for public speaking. But I'm doing the best I can today because the grrom said if I do a good job today, I can be Best Man at his next wedding, too

- My advice to the groom is to always remember to tell your wife those three important little words (pause for what seems like an eternity) ‘You’re right dear’.

- Now they are married it's time for us all to see that the groom is really the one that wears the trousers. And luckily for him the bride will always be there to tell him which trousers he has to wear.

- Groom, it's important that you make sure the bride knows who is the boss. The best way to do this is to walk up to her, look her in the eyes and say confidently "you're the boss".
