Make 3 jokes, thank the world and his wife (or yours), then sit down and let the best man have a laugh at you.

Not much really.

Tell everybody how pleased you are to be married to X. Thank the brides parent's for their help (and paying for it if they have gone with tradition), thanks to the bridesmaids (plus small pressie for them), thanks to the best man, <BAFTA_Mode>thank the guests, your parents, the dog and anybody else you can think of, cry in your champagne and offer a toast to a few people, brides maids etc</BAFTA_Mode>

True, be more of "Sorry guys, couldn't be bothered to marry your daughter as I thought a **** up with my mates in Florida was a far better idea"

use it as an opportunity to recall many funny p1ssups from the past and how you came to blame stella for all the ugly birds youve got on. then say how youve reformed and wont act like that again.....

Thank her parents for her, tell her dad that she's a cracking ride, must take after her mother! Say that the bridesmades look fantastic and are game for anything

Seriously though, it's to say thanks to her and your parents and everyone else for making it a great day.

The last bit should say does take after her mother surely?

Always start it with "On behalf of my wife and I....." will get u a cheer from the guests straight away, that will get the old confidence up.....

Never been a groom btw only had to do the best man bit
