However, you only need apply a little bit of thought to the problem and will find that you don't need to be a natural comedian to be able to give best man speeches that will be remembered. Here I'll look at how to brainstorm funny best man speeches and give you a specific example that I have actually used.<br /> <br /> The first rule to remember is that you don't need to be able to tell gags, that's not what this is about. The best approach is to think of the groom, think for the guests, find a true story that may connect to some of the guests and embellish it a bit to add humor if necessary. Think about funny or uncomfortable situations the groom has found himself in - they don't need to be funny in themselves as long as they can be funny in the telling. Think about your audience - the wedding guests - and what they know about the groom and how they can relate to your story. The unbreakable rule here is don't over step the mark and say anything that could offend even a single guest. <br /> <br /> When you've thought of a story that you think will get laughs from the wedding guests you've done the hard part, the thinking. The rest is practise and knowing what you're going to say. You can leave the rest of it for a while and reflect on the story before writing it down and emphasising the humor for maximum advantage.<br /> <br /> The last time I was best man was for my brother and so unfortunately for him I had a many years of memories from which to choose. However, the ones that sprang to mind were when he was really young and always used to fall into water - puddles, rivers, lakes, fountains, you name it he's been there.<br /> <br /> As he is a keen scuba diver, and teaches scuba diving at weekends, plus a number of guests were diving buddies, I linked his falling in water with scuba diving. Everyone enjoyed the story and while I did embellish it slightly it was based on fact.<br /> <br /> So as you can see, giving a funny best man speech doesn't mean you need to be funny. A little thought into some "unfortunate" situations and a little embellishment will go a long way to getting laughs and the guests will remember you for one of the wittiest best man speeches they've heard.<br /> <br>If you liked this article you may be interested in more information about <a href="http://best-man-speeches.weebly.com/">best man speeches</a>.
