Funny Wedding Vows To Use In A Best Man Speech

Best Man speeches rely on laughter as a yardstick of success and one of the best ways to ensure laughter occurs is to include a few humorous lines about the wedding vows. Your goal when doing this, aside from keeping the guests entertained, is to have the Groom squirming with embarrasment though it is vital not to offend the Bride.

Here are 3 examples of how you can use funny wedding vows in your speech.

I’m not saying John is a sci-fi geek but rather than “til death do us part” he told me he wanted to use “to infinity and beyond”.
Now that John is a married man he can forget “to love and to hold” it is far more likely to be “to love and to scold”.
Instead of “with this ring I thee wed” I thought I heard John mutter “with these handcuffs I thee wed”.

Finish this with a heartfelt sentimental statement about the love that the Bride and Groom share.

It is vital that you balance humor with some sincerity so bear this in mind for all aspects of your Best Man speech. Though your speech should include funny Best Man jokes and witty wedding one-liners make sure compliments and praise also have a prominent place in the words you speak.
