You’re the best man! You are honored to have been asked. But, what are
your responsibilities?
Here is a list of some of the things the Best Man does for the Groom.
You may want to talk it over with the Groom to see if he agrees, or if
there are other things he would like you to do.
- Organizes the bachelor party
- Drives the Groom to the wedding
ceremony
- Brings the brides' wedding band to
the ceremony
- Gives the officiate the fee
immediately before of after the ceremony ( the groom should give
this to you in an envelope before leaving for the church)
- Returns the Grooms tuxedo after the
wedding
- Makes sure the wedding gifts are
moved to the parents home after the wedding reception
- Helps the Groom get ready for the
ceremony
- Holds the Brides wedding band during
the ceremony
- Signs the wedding certificate as a
witness
- Escorts the Maid of Honor in the
recessional
- Poses for pictures with the groom
before and after the wedding
- Gives the first toast at the
reception
- Assists in gathering the wedding

(you may or may not want to discuss this with the groom)
As Best Man, you help the Groom with whatever needs to be done. In
addition to being the best, you are his right hand man, do whatever you
