You've organised the stag do, you've even cancelled the football to be at the wedding. All that's left is the speech. But no matter how much you think about it, you haven't quite got around to writing it. To help in your hour of need, we've put together some typical best man jokes. These jokes are by no means original, but they're not suppossed to be, are they? We've all heard them before, but a best man's speech wouldn't be the same without the classic best man's jokes. So even if you've prepared a completely original speech, throwing in the classic jokes is a must. And if you haven't prepared a speech, you could always reel of these...

When two people are deeply in love, it''s traditional that a man should know about the 7 rings of a relationship. They are:
Friendship ring, Engagement ring, Wedding ring, Eternity ring. Then comes the Enduring, the Torturing, and the Suffering.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, for those of you who don''t know me, my name is David Wouldulikeadrink. I''ll be at the bar for most of the evening and if you do get a chance to speak to me, I really insist you call me by my full name.
 
I''ve learnt that every marriage may have its ups and down, may all your ups and downs, be between the sheets.
 
Did you know that marriage is not just a word? It is actually a sentence. A life sentence.
  
So you’ve finally got married, for better or for worse, which is quite appropriate as [he] couldn’t have done any better and [she] couldn’t have done any worse.
 
Looking into my speech I found out that the three key elements of the wedding service are:

1. The Aisle - it’s the longest walk you’ll ever take
2. The Alter - the place where two become one
3. The Hymn - the celebration of marriage

I think [she] must have done the same research as I did, because as she was walking past me, I’m sure I heard her whispering to herself, Aisle…altar…hymn, aisle altar hymn, I’ll alter him etc…
 
As you have found out by now, a best man’s speech involves a collection of amusing stories. Although there are a couple of things that are really not supposed to be mentioned at weddings, but I shall mention them anyway: -First of all, [his] drink problem – well the main problem is that he can’t handle his drink. Mind you his new wife will be able to give him some good training.
 
 Before I finish, I would like to give the groom some advice on what people thought were the ingredients to a long and happy marriage so here are a few. Firstly, set the ground rules and establish who is boss…and then do everything your wife says! Secondly, never be afraid that your wife will leave you – she’s spent time training you, she’s not going to throw that away lightly! Thirdly, never forget to say those 3 little words every day for the rest of your life - “YOU’RE RIGHT DEAR!”
 
Well [grooms name], I hope you made the most of your speech, Now you’re a married man, that’ll be the last time you get to speak for 3 minutes without being interrupted!

Now it gives me great Pleasure to ask you all to raise your glasses for some very important people, with out them the today would not be the same, Would you raise your glasses to toast.. The bar staff!!
