I've done 2 now - ruins the day cause you're shittin it about the speech.
That site that Duke has linked to is a belter though for material to use.
Both times I started off thanking everyone, then a few gags/stories, then saying what a great bloke they are and a great couple they make, then something a little soppy (I used the same 2 line thing both times "may their love be modern enough blah blah"), then a toast to the bride and groom.

this is good advice
I've done 2 - loved it both times - but then i am a bit of a show off... :$
Keep it simple - keep the gags relevant to the groom - i.e. stories that really happened (if safe
) don't churn out the ones that you hear at all weddings - cos everyone will have heard them before - that's not to say you can't use some of the stock gags - just taylor them to your/groom's own experiences.Smile!!
You will be fine mate
I've just had a quick look and this was the site I was thinking of because the speeches are free:
sample wedding speeches

It wasn't shitting the bed - that would be a little wierd at a wedding. It was wetting the bed and if you recall it went down extremely well with all
i have done one and probably my last ??as i said i would like to thank rent-a -tent for making the brides mums dress!!!!!
class !!
went to a wedding where the best man had made up a big 'This Is Your Life' red book together with a slideshow which showed various pics of the groom pissed, as a kid etc, and the best man give a funny story for each pic. Thought it was a top idea

i did a similar thing for one of mine (didn't do the 'This is your Life book as that would have been to much hassle!!) but got all my and the groom's mates to describe him in 1 word - then i did a load of gags/stories around those themes.
excerpts from a speech my mate did
???=brides age ZZZZZZ=bride
I must say, it’s funny how history repeats itself. ??? years ago, ZZZZZZ mum and dad were sending their beautiful daughter to bed with a dummy – and here we are again today.
ZZZZZZ= groom
However it was a beautiful ceremony. I found it very moving to witness XXXXXX taking his two marriage vows: Silence and Poverty!
XXXXXX=groom ZZZZZZ=bride
I am the best man so in time-honoured tradition, I will now do my best to give XXXXXX the most uncomfortable five minutes of his life. For the record, the most uncomfortable five minutes of ZZZZZZ’s life will becoming later on this evening, courtesy of XXXXXX!!
XXXXXX=groom
It’s easy to say XXXXXX is hardworking… saying it with a straight face is the problem. XXXXXX works almost everyday – almost on Monday, almost on Tuesday, almost on Wednesday……But seriously a friend like XXXXXX is certainly hard to find. This morning, for instance, we had to look in three pubs and a wine bar!!

Armando has done two, the most memorable line in his first one went something like "when i first met Sarah, i was impressed by her beauty, personality and reasonable hourly rates"! her face was pure class....then he went on to describe how the groom got caught by the police taking a shat in the middle of the road.....
