The best man is the most important person for the groom during the wedding, aside from the bride!

In a wedding, everything that is connected to the groom should be known by the best man. It is the best man who has to take care of nearly everything as the groom has got his hands full.

It is an important role to be a best man as it represents responsibility, so, be sure to be ready to take up all the responsibilities if you say yes.

If you don't want to take up such a big role, it is okay to say no to the groom when he asks you to be the best man for him.

Also, the best man has to give a speech and  read the messages from the people who could not attend the wedding but have sent their best wishes.

The scariest and the most fun part of the wedding is the speech. If you are a best friend, you can add up the incidents you both did as teens and get some good best man quotes to make the speech look good and funny.

You have to not talk only about the groom but also the bride. After all, it is going to be the bride and groom wedded to be a couple.

For your help, we have collected quotes for best man speeches where you can find funny best man quotes too, and also best man toasts quotes. If you like this, check out 50th wedding anniversary quotes or [Dwight Schrute quotes].
