    I have done it pal.
    Was nervous at first but went well in the end.
    I think people over think it sometimes.
    Pretty simple just a couple of pointers.
    1)Start by welcoming everyone
    2)Maybe how you and the groom met
    3) First time you met the bride
    4)How happy they are together
    5)How beautiful the bridesmaid look ! (Don't forget this )
    6)Wish everyone a great night

    Always found this line useful if your single

    "I hope I find someone who makes me as happy as the bride does to the groom"

    Maybe a story or two but go easy on the jokes.Real speeches are nothing like in the movies
