    gentlemen, The time has come for me to write the timeless piece that will forever be remembered as the best part of my brothers wedding.

    I'm looking for ideas, past speeches?

    Just do it impromptu after you've been drinking all day long. Those are always the most memorable.

    Its speech, not speach.

    I have a feeling this isn't going to work out too well.

    And I mean only that, dont prepare anything.

    A good speech has a good beginning and a good end.

    Just mention sausage's at some point to get the guys onside and little cats to keep the old biddies happy.

    Don't forget to mention how hot you think the Bride's mum must have been back in the day and your golden.

    I was in a similar position last year...What worked for me was:
    Somewhat formal introduction, say who you are and how you know the groom. Thanks to bridge and groom parents...Funny story about the 2 of you, talk about when he met the bride, compliments to her, light hearted joke about the wedding, rousing toast to them thanks and finish in about 7-10 minutes.
    Have the key points on a little card, and study it so you know it by heart, you can always glance down at it, but it's enough to be able to remember where you are and where you're going. Don't rush it - don't make any distateful jokes - there'll be old folks there, have a bit of class, speak slowly and smile. Look at the bride and groom when you talk to them, it makes it sound much more genuine and people will think well of you and you'll get a see of smiling faces and a proper round of applause, which'll feel great and do your friend justice. It'll fly by and you'll wonder what you were so worried about. Just a bit of proper preparation and you'll be familiar with what you're going to say and be able to relax and enjoy it, which is what everybody wants to see.

    the formula for a great best man speech is as follows:

    -introduction / how you know the couple
    -a funny story to lighten the mood (racial slurs encouraged!)
    -a transition to a 'more serious note'
    -one sentence that is actually meaningful and memorable
    -clinky
