Serve as the groom's personal aide and adviser before and during the wedding. This can include helping him pack for the honeymoon (the valet part).


Help the groom choose and rent (or buy) wedding formalwear, and coordinate the other groomsmen's rentals. You guys are supposed to match, after all! You may be expected to arrange accommodations for out-of-town groomsmen.It's your job to corral
the other groomsmen and make sure
they're performing their duties.



Organize the bachelor party. Don't be shy about enlisting other groomsmen to help you out -- most guys don't mind this duty! Put financial worries out of your mind -- the cost should be split among everyone who attends the bash.


Attend the rehearsal with the bride and groom and all the other attendants. This is your chance to figure out how you're supposed to walk down that aisle.


Stand beside the groom at the altar and keep the bride's ring until vows are exchanged. Find a safe place for the ring (and triple check that your pockets don't have holes) -- you don't want to fumble around when it's time to whip it out.


Corral the other groomsmen and make sure they're performing their duties.


Sign the marriage license as a witness after the ceremony, along with the maid of honor.


Give the officiant a sealed envelope with his or her fee (the groom's responsibility) just after the ceremony.


You may be announced with the maid of honor when the reception begins.


Dance with both the honor attendant and the bride during the wedding party dances.


Give the first toast to the bride and groom at the reception. This is your biggest -- and probably most frightening -- duty. Read our article about toasting, and remember the cardinal rule: Mum's the word on the bachelor bacchanalia.


Collect any gift envelopes guests bring to the reception. You may be asked to deposit them in the couple's bank account or at least to keep them until the couple returns from their honeymoon.


Decorate the getaway mobile. Grab the other groomsmen and the bridesmaids for this one.

The role of the best man in the wedding.....well, I might say the groom should select the very best close friend or relative as well for him during the wedding.....it should be his best man ever in times of troubles, ups & down, and in reality plays the role of a matured person in the midst of married couple in their entire life.

If you cannot believe of some thing for him to do on the marriage ceremony like be a further usher or do a studying for the period of the rite why now not present to make him the MC on the reception? That means he could be a huge facet of your day via taking cost of the thrill after the rite and ensure the speeches go with the flow, announce your access to the reception, announce the garter toss and the bouqet toss and so on

The best man is there to show that there are better men than the groom at the wedding.

To escort the Maid of Honor down the aisle after the ceremony and act as a bouncer at the reception in case Uncle Earl gets too drunk and starts acting like an idiot. But, that's just from my own experience.

He is there to make sure the groom gets to the wedding.He holds the brides ring for the groom. Plus make sure he doesn't drink to much the night before.Or you might have to pick him up after he faints at the altar. Have fun and good luck.Oh also give him a bachelor party too.Plus don't forget the nice speech you have to give at his reception.
