The job of the Best Man is very important. As an integral part of the wedding, it is your job to not only prepare your best man speechs, but also to make sure that everything during the wedding runs smoothly.

Make sure you have the wedding rings and the marriage license in a safe place if you are in charge of holding them. If the couple is leaving right after the reception to their honeymoon, make sure their car is packed with their luggage, tickets, directions, passports, and anything else they could possibly need for their trip. Make sure the Groom looks his best and is clean and neat. Straighten his tie and button any missing buttons. This is his big day, and you want to help him look his absolute best.

Keep the wedding rings and the marriage license in a safe spot if you are responsible for holding them. Pack up the car with their passports, luggage, tickets, or whatever else they need if they are leaving for the honeymoon right after the wedding. Before the actual ceremony, make sure you do a quick once-over for the Groom. Straighten his tie, button any missed buttons, and send him out looking his best. This is his big day after all, and you want to make sure he's looking good.

Be ready to lend a hand if something goes a little awry during the wedding. Big problems are usually sorted out during the rehearsal, and so you generally won't have to deal with those, but be ready in case the flower girl gets nervous and stops or if the Groom's collar is popped up. You probably won't experience a "Runaway Bride" kind of deal, but keep an eye out so you can lend a hand wherever it's needed. Also, remember to be ready for your best mans speeches, which will come up faster than you expect!

You may have even more jobs after the reception. Check that the wedding gifts are all safe and packed up and ready to go. Make sure the Bride and Groom get to their ride if they are heading to a hotel or the airport. If you are in charge of driving them, make sure you don't drink. If tuxedos need to be returned, be sure to have them their on time so no one gets charged a late fee.

You hold a very important position in the wedding, and you don't want to become the subject of a surprise, especially at the expense of a poor best man wedding speeches. So make sure you know exactly what you should be doing at all times.
