How to be the perfect Best Man at a Wedding?


The BEST MAN is one of the most important roles in the wedding.  Weddings are dependent on tradition, and  the best man is an important role.  Perhaps the most important responsibility of the best man is to keep the groom on time for the wedding.  Your job as the best man is to take the burden of stress off the groom and onto your shoulders.  Often the groom will entrust the best man with the money that is due to the minister.

The ceremony's over, but that doesn't mean the best man is off the hook.  The best man is the groom's confidante.  The best man is the de facto business manager of the groom's party.

Remember that the speech is about the new couple not about you.  Your goal as the Best Man is to add humor and lighthearted stories to the speech.  The best man speech is about the new couple.

Being asked to be the best man in a wedding is a great honor.  During the ceremony, the bride is to the left and the best man is to the right.  The best man is chosen for an honorary position – but the position does come with responsibilities.

Giving a gift to the best man is customary in many weddings.  Traditional gifts for the best man may are often monogrammed, engraved, or in some other way  personalized .
