"Here's to the groom-a man who keeps his head though he loses his heart"
"To Jeff and Traci, may all their ups and downs be between the sheets"
"I can honestly say that in all the years I've known him, no one has ever questioned Jeff's intelligence. In fact, I've never even heard anyone mention it! Nobody realized how truly smart my buddy was until the night he came home and told us he had asked Traci to be his wife. That's when I knew my best friend was a clever, clever man."

If you're looking to give a toast, please, please, please don't do any of these things:
1) Go off-color
2) Ask a bunch of fools on the internet for crib notes
3) Embarrass the grooom.
4) Ignore the bride.
Just tell a good story about some time you spent with the groom or the couple and offer a toast to "best wishes for the bride and groom".
Unless you're a comedian by trade, there's no law says you have to be funny. It's easier and more effective in most cases to go sentimental. Believe me. Besides, the best man toast is one of those things that people only remember when it goes wrong. It's not about you anyway. Just be honest, be heartfelt, and you'll be fine.

I will tell you what my cousin's best man did at his wedding. It wasn't a quote, though. When it came to the part of the ceremony where the bride and groom get on their knees in front of the minister, the entire church snickered. Why? The best man had written HELP ME on the bottom of the groom's shoes!!!!!

At my brothers wedding, his best man asked him to put his hand on top of he's new wifes hand. He then said "take a good look at your hand on top of hers, cos thats the last time you will have the upper hand"
