A wedding day is all about the love between two people who are ready to spend their lives with each other for as long as they live. It is always filled with happy moments and one of the most awaited parts of the reception would have to be the messages people close to the bride and groom deliver as they raise their glasses for a toast.
Timothy Leinen, a Marine, just got married to the love of his life, Jessica. Everything at the wedding is more than they could hope for. Friends and family surround them on their special day, and every spoken word is meant to honor the newlyweds. Until it was finally time for the Best Man to deliver a speech for his toast.
Timothy must have expected his only brother to be generous with compliments and praises about him, but he was sorely mistaken. He did not have any idea that he was going to receive a “roast” and not a toast.
Joe Leinen started off his speech like any other heartfelt message. He made it clear that he was not going to “roast” his brother and said that he was supposed to say all the good things. But in the end, the comedic Best Man could not find anything good to say and joked about ending his speech early. Everyone could not help laughing at that smoothly delivered punchline!
The Best Man then pointed out the first day he and his brother first met.
“The day I was born… me and Tim shared an instant connection. We both immediately disliked each other.”
The Best Man went on emphasizing how different he is from his brother.
“We had very different personalities. You know Tim was always loud and abrasive and obnoxious and foolish. While I was always calm, and self-controlled and good looking.”
At this point, the groom must have had his own doubts if he made the right decision of making his brother his best man. Oops, too late to go back on your words now, Tim. The crowd loved his brother’s antics anyway, so he still did the right thing, right?
“I was a bit surprised that he chose me as his best man, I don’t think he realized that I get the chance to stand up here and say whatever I wanted about him, in front of all his friends and family. The moment I’ve been looking forward to for years.”
Just like any brothers, Tim and Joe had their own stories to tell about their fights and quarrels, and Joe made sure everyone knew about this, too! To make it more entertaining, the Best Man even made a poem for everyone to hear.
“Once I was sleeping atop my bunk bed, Tim pulled me off and I hit my head. Once when Tim was being arrogant and haughty, I asked ‘What’s it like being a woman trapped in a man’s body?'”
The guests just kept on laughing, totally entertained by Joe’s amazing roast. He surely knows how to deliver a funny line! But, of course, the best part of all would be when Joe finally said how honored he is to be Tim’s brother, and both men hugged it out.
Everyone thought Joe’s speech was over, but he was not done yet. He still needs to give his message to the bride, of course.
“You are a beautiful bride, and you have so many great qualities. You’re smart, funny, a hard worker… your only flaw is your taste in men.”
The room erupted in laughter after that and just could not stop smiling as Joe ended his incredible speech with a heartfelt toast for the newly married couple. What a way to make this wedding day extra special!
