Best Man Speech - Example 1:

I would like to thank all of you for coming tonight and sharing this special occasion with Sue and Bob. I’ve known Bob for several years and am very happy to see my good friend get married to such a great girl. Ever since Bob and Sue met, they have been inseparable. I have seen their love for each other grow stronger and stronger through some tough times. Tonight, I would like to offer Sue and Bob and old Irish Blessing. Sue and Bob may the road rise to meet you may the sun shine warm upon your face, the rain fall soft upon your fields, and until we meet again may god hold you in the hollow of his hand.Thank you Bob for being such a good friend over the years. I wish you and Sue the best of luck in the future.And finally, In closing, To Sue and Bob: May all your Ins and Outs, & Ups and Downs, be between the sheets...Cheers!!

Best Man Speech - Example 2:

Tonight, it is my great honor and privilege to make the first toast to Bob and Sue as husband and wife. While some people know that Bob and I went to both high school and college together, it is a little known fact that our first meeting occurred while playing CYO soccer in grade school. Bob played for St, Joe’s & John’s, I played for their arch rival, Incarnate Word Academy. During the course of one of our games in the eighth grade, Bob took a free kick just outside our goal. I was one of the defenders that stood in the wall. Rather than opting to put the ball on goal, Bob launched a blistering shot into my thigh. As a result, I had the impression of a soccer ball tattooed on my leg for about a week.

While that impression was only temporary, the impression that Bob has made on me as a classmate, teammate, roommate, and friend will last forever. Bob has always been there when I needed him. He is honest and trustworthy.

In short, Bob is a great guy and he has found a great girl in Sue. Alas, let us toast Sue and Bob. May they live a long life together filled with love and laughter. May their joys be many and their troubles few. Congratulations!

Best Man Speech Example 3:

Sue & Bob, I love you both so much! You two have been dear friends to me longer than you've been dating -- which is a very, very, VERY, long time! I have seen you both grow as individuals and flourish as a couple. Separately, you two are special, remarkable people -- but together you are complete. Today, we celebrate everything you have found in each other -- a best friend, a lover, a teacher, a playmate, a true partner -- for life.

As you sit side by side through this roller coaster of life, remember to: scream from the peaks, hold hands through the dips, laugh through the loop-the-loops, and enjoy every twist and turn --for the ride is better because you share it together. Please join me in a toast: To love, laughter and happily ever after! To Sue & Bob... Finally!!!
