You?  Talking in front of a large group of people?  Impossible!

Cheer up!  It’s not that bad, especially if you start early with your wedding speech. Most best men wait until the last minute to prepare their speech for the wedding but since you’re here, that’s not going to be you.  Unless the wedding is tomorrow, then you’re in trouble!

Not really trouble but your wedding speech for the groom is not going to be the best unless you have a few pointers to help you out with your best man speech for wedding.
