The majority of best man speech endings conclude with a toast to the newlywed couple. Before toasting you should tie up your best man speech and let the guests know the best man speech is coming to an end. You may use phrases such as "In closing", "To tie up this speech", "Let me finish by wishing...", "I'd like to make a toast in honor of ..." etc. Before toasting make sure to congratulate the newlyweds and thank the guests for coming and listening to your best man speech. You will want to hold up your glass so guests are prepared to toast, making sure that you have wine or champagne in your glass as some cultures find toasting with any other beverage to be insulting. Make sure your best man speech ending is very positive and congratulatory to the newly married couple. All best man speeches should end with wishing love and happiness to the couple. |
