Funny One Liners for Best Man Speech

As the best man, you're tasked with giving the toast—maybe the most famous one of the evening. For the big speech, it's important to have some jokes scattered throughout. The couple gets to be sentimental. Her father gets to be sad and nostalgic. You need to bring the funny like it's showtime at the Apollo. That's no easy task, either. Luckily, there are dozens of jokes that have already been written that you can plug your buddy's name into and carry on. We compiled some of our favorites for you here. Good luck!

The Openers

Good evening everyone. I'm so happy to preside over the only five minutes that the bride didn't plan. Of course, I'm only kidding. We went over the speech 40 minutes ago in the hall.

It's been an emotional day, even the cake is in tiers.

We've reached the moment in the evening where we get to watch the groom figet and worry in anticipation. Yes, everyone, I've been asked by the staff to give him the bill.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Before I begin, I just want to apologize for not being an experienced public speaker. I'm probably going to spend most of the time looking at this piece of paper in my hands. Oh, it's not my notes – it's a picture of the triple Jameson I'm going to down as soon as this is over.

I just heard there was a lucrative pool on the length of the Best Man's speech. I put my money on 40 minutes, so settle in…

Before I begin my speech, there's just one order of business I've been asked to take care of. *Hold up pair of trousers with padlock on them* These are Jack's Chastity Pants. I know he's given keys out to various ladies over the years, but since he is now a married man, he'd like to get those copies back, so Jill is the only one with access. *Wait for the keys you strategically handed out to wedding guests to be brought up*

My name is Peter and I am the Best Man. Many of you would beg to differ, but shut up – I know your secrets.

Just a couple of rules before we begin. If you have a mobile phone – leave it switched on, entertain yourselves. And if anyone texts you any good jokes, kindly pass them up to the front."

I've been told I won't get away with a few thank yous and a quick toast. Apparently, as Best Man, I'm supposed to sing the Groom's praises and talk about his good qualities. Unfortunately, I can't sing and I won't lie.

My speech today will be like a mini-skirt.  Long enough to cover the essentials but short enough to hold your attention!

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen – Before I came here today one of my good friends gave me some advice on giving this speech. He said think of it like walking through a nudist camp, it's only hard for the first minute.

Jokes About The Groom

Now he's getting a bit older he's turning his attention more and more to gadgets, constantly buying stuff from ebay, amazon and I want one of those dot com. I swear he didn't have an interest in women until he overheard someone say the secret to women was knowing what buttons to press.

I read somewhere the perfect best man speech should last as long as it takes for the groom to make love. So ladies and gentlemen, please raise a glass to the happy couple!

Sally is a bright, charming, wonderful woman, who deserves a good husband. It's such a shame Harry swooped in before she could find one.

I think the main reason we've lasted as friends all these years is because you're geographically convenient…and you had a trampoline.

Jack is the kindest friend anyone could ask for; a man whose philanthropy knows no bounds. 'Generosity' should be his middle name. He would do anything for me; like helping write a section of the best man speech because you forgot about it until late last night at the bar!

Jack was in a pub when he proposed. No, really, it was actually very romantic – he got up on one knee.

It's strange to be giving a speech like this one, because my parents always told me that if I had nothing good to say about someone, I should just be quiet.

Seeing the happy couple walking down the aisle earlier today, I'm sure we all agree that the bride looked simply stunning. The groom, on the other hand, simply looked stunned.

So I'm the best man, although I think I was picked by default since the groom doesn't really have any other friends.

I can only say in my defense that Mike and I share a common sense of humor so if this speech is in anyway unfunny please "Feel Free to Blame Mike."

I'd also like to congratulate Keith on a truly magnificent speech, I always knew it would be hard to follow, and I was right, I could hardly follow a word of it.

John did tell me that the vicar was firmly against sex before marriage. However, Jane did assure him it would only take a couple of minutes.

Rest assured though, unlike most traditional best man speeches, which are full of sexual innuendo, I've promised Dan and Anne that if there is anything slightly risqué, I'll whip it out immediately …"

Although Ria did actually tell me Paul has always brightened up her life. Well, she actually said he never turned the lights off but it amounts to the same thing pretty much.

I'll try to keep my speech short, because every extra minute I speak is an extra minute's delay in witnessing how the Groom's dance lessons worked out.

Jokes About The Bride

I do have to say though how lucky you are Dave, you're leaving with a beautiful wife whom you love. And you, Miranda, you get to go home with such a nice new dress and beautiful bouquet of flowers, it's great.

Jill, you are an amazing woman who deserves a wonderful husband. And I promise you I won't rest until I get to the bottom of what's gone wrong here.

Being asked to be the best man is about five minutes of glowing pride, followed by an eternity of panic and misery. Linda, I expect you had a similar experience when Paul asked you to be his wife.

I spoke to both Sally and Paul before the Wedding and I asked Paul what he was looking for in Marriage – he said "Love, happiness and a long life together."
When I asked Sally the same question – she replied – A coffee percolator!

Speaking of Jane, I would like to say how beautiful she looks today in that fantastic dress …Dan likes it too, as he told me in the church it will blend in just nicely well with the rest of the kitchen.

Someone once said that marriage is a 50/50 partnership, but anyone who believes that clearly knows nothing about women or fractions!"

When I saw Linda heading up the aisle with her father, I thought "At last she's seen sense, and got herself a man with looks and money."

Before proposing, Paul went to ask Linda's father for her hand in marriage. He said that it was fine by him, providing Paul took the hand that had spent 20 years fishing into his wallet!

Jokes About The Best Man

I recognize my place here; being best man at a wedding is like being the dead body at a funeral. You're expected to be there, but if you say too much people start freaking out.

If you can't hear me in the back, let the silence in the front assure you that you're not really missing out on anything.

A Best Man is like a dog. You love him, care about him, and he's only thrown up and ruined your upholstery twice.

I would like to start by saying what a pleasure it is to be Best Man at Jack and Jill's wedding. Jack made me compete for this honor today, but I was able to beat Mark the Bartender over there in rock-paper-scissors, so here I am!

I found the speech length really difficult to settle on. At one point, it ran to almost 70 minutes, so I cut it down to a five-minute speech but I just felt like too many important things were being left out. So I came to a compromise – I'm going to read the five-minute speech. Then straight afterwards, I'll do 70-minute one and you guys can tell me which speech I should use.

What can you say about a man who came from humble beginnings and is now rising to the top of his industry based solely on his intelligence, grit and willpower? A man whose charisma knows no bounds and who has already distinguished himself amongst his peers? Because I'm trying to write my Tinder profile and I'm having trouble summarizing myself.

When I sat down to write this speech I Googled "perfect best man speech", but you had to pay to read the examples and I didn't think it was worth it, so I'm gonna wing it.

I admit, I'm extremely nervous right now. As the people sitting near to me at the table can testify, it really is possible to smell fear."

I must admit, I'm not used to speaking in public. Until now I thought a toastmaster was a kitchen appliance.

The trouble with being the best man at a wedding is that you never get to prove it.

You know, it's been said that being asked to be best man is like being asked to make love to Camilla Parker Bowles.. It's a great honor but you don't really want to do it!

I've been anxious about giving this speech for a while now. Fortunately last night I slept like a baby. Waking up every two hours and bawling my eyes out. Ten minutes ago, I had to ask a complete stranger to burp me.

Other Favorites

Dave was telling me that the amazing meal this evening was charged on a cost-per-head basis, so, on the bride and groom's behalf, I'd like to thank the following people for not coming…

What's the difference between in-laws and out-laws? Outlaws are wanted."

Leading up to today John and Jane were having an issue with the seating plan. Who would sit comfortably in here & who would have to get up and stand during the speeches so we decided to use wedding present list, biggest presents at front and work it back from there.
So hopefully you can hear me at the back when I say on behalf of Jane and John thank‐you very much for the teaspoons.
