Your Speech
Now, be honest… How are you feeling about your speech?
You’re about to deliver an important speech for one of your closest friends on perhaps the biggest day of his life. He deserves a good send-off.
The internet is, as we both know, awash with Best Man speech advice. Trouble is, too much of it comes in the form of tired jokes, crudity or template scripts to cut-and-paste into a word document.

I never write reviews. This book demands one. Brilliant. The photographer collared me to say it was the best Best Man’s Speech he’d heard. This success is in small way down to this book. Thank you.
If you want to do a good job for your Groom and deliver an authentic, personal speech you can be proud of, ignore all the rubbish advice online and get this!
Brilliant book. I purchased this having been best man on two previous occasions when the books I used were disappointing. I’m so glad I purchased this book rather than pinching a speech off the web. My speech went down a storm…
