Sindeira So it's more of a time- restraint sort of thing and not really an issue of editing and overall nit- picking; that's such a relief to know. With a portion of your audience not being from the U.S., you'll want to use small, simple words that are easy to understand or place a print- out at each of the seats that may need one ~hours~ before the reception should ever start. It's inappropriate to speak for more than two or three minutes. And simply remember: The longer you speak --> the longer people will have to wait to get their plates of food, drinks, catch the bouquet and bridal garter, and get their groove on. Gee- golly, if it wasn't for the humidity, I would imagine that you'd like it here. This process involves wet strips of material being applied to the soles of your feet and left to harden. Then they're carefully removed and mailed off to be made elsewhere. My insoles are so incredibly comfy, which is why I am a tad skeptical with the quality of work yours had. I prefer humidity. I am in the desert because of taxes and insanity on account of my father. My only issue with humidity is when it goes from super-dry to super-humid as I get arthritis-like symptoms so bad that I can barely move. The forms that were done on me were the impression type with the box of clay-like material. Of course an insole can only do so much when most of the pain is toenails wearing off, ankle blistering, and a piercing sensation in the top of your small toe – I'm just not a closed shoe person, I'm a barefoot person. Hell, I have problems wearing socks. xp As for speech length, I have found that, apart from Patton, most speeches of quality are under 2 minutes. So I practiced with a calm, easy tone as I would hope to have delivering such a speech and worked out a rough frame of how long it would take me to say things. So out of all the worries about this speech, duration is not one of them. It isn't language though... I meant that if it was language, I could understand it getting shot down. It is simply not to his liking. Maybe it is the way I speak and write? I do have a passive, somewhat effeminate way with prose on occasion... He wants something more masculine perhaps? Forceful sentences with firm, direct meanings that assault the language into submission instead of nuance it into an ornate bit of prose? I'll just post the latest version and maybe somebody will tell me what is wrong with this: "I am truly honored to be here today at this most joyous moment in my friends' lives.
The bride and groom are my two best friends – the best friends I have ever had in my life and whom I cherish most. They are both extraordinary people and it is a massive relief upon my nervous mind and heart knowing that my best friends are in each other's capable hands – the only hands I could ever trust them to.
I wish them a full and glorious lifetime of happiness together... But, having known these two wonderful people over the years, I don't have to wish for it at all; as it is guaranteed through their true dedication to each other."

Exxos, if he still doesn't like what you're writing, maybe you should just ask him to write it himself. confused Good luck bro.

I would have loved having that said at my own wedding. It's personal, sweet, and the perfect length. As for the delivery, how can you say it other than as yourself. You're the person they asked to be Best Man. They know you well. I don't see how they could expect you - or want you to act like someone else.

Camwen They know you well. I don't see how they could expect you - or want you to act like someone else. The summary of it is that they are both ashamed of me in person, my little contact with their families has been negative, and while they have almost nothing but accolades for the goodness I have done in their lives, all the other people do not have the years of insight into who I am and only see the surface layer of unmitigated awkwardness and fail. My friends here are lucky in that I have been able to put my true self out there from near the beginning, so you all started deeper into the exodus of the engimatic Exxos experience, but it still took over a year. Basically it is easier on them for me to put on the costume of functional, decent human being. sweatdrop It's an awkward feeling. On one hand, perfectly understandable. On the other, extremely hurtful.

My poor parents both came to my wedding even though they hadn't spoken to each other in about 8 years. I know it was awkward and uncomfortable for them but I still am extremely grateful that they were able to put that aside for me.
