The Best Man
The best man is usually the groom's beat friend or a very close family member. The groom trusts this person. The best man luckily does not have as many responsibilities as the maid of honour does as the groom usually does not demand too much.
Pre-wedding responsibilities
- Attend all the tuxedo or suit fittings.
- Plan the bachelor party.
Wedding day responsibilities
- Ensure the groom is ready and at the venue on time.
- Make sure all the groomsmen are at the venue on time.
- Hold the bride's ring and marriage licence during the ceremony until it is time to hand them over.
- Give a speech at the reception.
- Dance with the maid of honour during he first dance.
- Decorate the getaway mobile, usually with "Just Married" and other decorations.
The Groomsmen
The groomsmen are usually the groom's friends and are often referred to as "the boys." They are the groom's "go-to-guys" during the wedding.
Pre-wedding responsibilities
- Help the best man plan the bachelor's party.
Wedding day responsibilities
- Greet and seat the guests coming into the ceremony and seat them at the reception.
- Help out with any problems that may occur during the ceremony and reception.
