    I am after all you lovely peoples' opinion, knowledge and help please?!

    We have 3 best men and they are struggling on what to say?

    We have thank the bridesmaids, flower girls and page boy. Who else do they thank? I know they have stories each they can say but what one best man usually says, what can they share between 3?

    It's so hard! Haha

    Yeah they all have stories, what specific 'thank you's' do they need to say?

    The best men don't thank the bridesmaid, they generally thank the groomon the bridesmaids behalf once he had thanked them.

    Tell them to just Google best man speeches ideas. Loads come up.

    Do they need to thank guests for travelling far to come to the wedding. I think they also do the last toast to the bride and groom. X

    I always thought it was the husbands speech that thanks every one for coming and thanks all the relevant people (bridsmaids, mob, grooms men ect). The best man or men in your cace usually say how beautiful the bridsmaids look. Then they say some funny story about the groom. As there is 3 of them maby they can shair a small story each? X

    I didn't think so, but as they all don't want to organise with each other, one who has previously been a best man, is asking me to help and round everyone up! Haha I think they have sorted now though, but thanks for the idea of thanking guest for travelling a long way! All my family are travelling from the Isle of Wight to as West of Wales as you can go! :)

    We didn't really have this problem as the best man was husband's brother, but he did a sort of prize giving from the stag do. They did clay pigeon shooting so there was a sharp shooter prize, one for the karaoke and one for the ale tasting session. And obviously one for the groom :o)
