I just mirrored myself in this write-up, like we've met before 100% my personality while performing as a Best Man. I have done that twice, and the next one will be this month of May. God help me to settle down after this last one, cause e the heat is much.

Having performed the function of a best man before, I must commend your points.

12. THE BEST MAN PROPOSES THE TOAST.
Go and learn how to propose a proper toast o! cheesy

13. THEY ALSO SIGN PART OF THE MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE.
The best man serves as one of the legal witnesses by signing a section of the marriage certificate before it is being presented to the couple by the officiating minister. This should not be a problem. cool


14. THE BEST MAN MIGHT BE CALLED UPON TO GIVE A SPEECH AT THE RECEPTION.
This is known as the best man’s speech. The speech usually contains insights into the love life of couple before the wedding, how they met, his own role in settling disputes when they fought, etc and sometimes, the best man uses it an avenue for vote of thanks. The speech usually ends with a toast.

15. THE BEST MAN SOMETIMES CONDUCTS THE ORDER OF PHOTOGRAPHS.
Please, as the best man, try your best to ease the burden of the photographer as this critical moment. The photographer will be grateful.

16. THE BEST MAN GOES HOME WITH THE CHIEF BRIDES MAID AFTER THE WEDDING! wink grin grin grin cheesy cheesy No be me talk am o. cool But, anything can happen. You gerrit? wink


There is nothing really hard in being the best man. Just be confident and go with the flow. YOU WILL DO JUST FINE. I PROMISE. cool


HOWEVER, AS THE BEST MAN, PLEASE,
1. Do not come to the wedding and start forming frosh and start doing “igberaga”. sad If you know all you will be doing is press phone, please, don’t take the best man role. You were chosen to serve, not to be served.

2. If you will be rude to the vendors like telling the photographer that you are not sure he is a professional, or calling the caterer a compound fool because she didn’t serve your friends on time, don’t do it.

3. If you cannot ginger the groom and bring good vibes, don’t do it. Don’t come and be behaving like you were being forced. Be humble.

4. Don’t try to outshine the groom. We know say you fine. cool We know you can speak phonetically heavy english. grin We also know you can dance. cool Do all, but, don’t outdo the groom. Wisdom is profitable to direct.

5. Do not leave your post and start directing who should get rice or semo. sad Have some dignity.

That’s it for this week! cool cool

Past best men in the house should help us add to the tips in case we missed any.

Next week will be for the chief brides maid! Watch out! Thanks for your time! I remain Timagex. Your favourite wedding photographer. Bye for now...
