Honestly MF, you, sorry, 'your friend' shouldn't try and be funny, it really will make a mockery of your best man. Stick to thanking the parents in law, telling everyone one funny anecdote about you and your wife (mine was about how we met), tell your wife how you're lucky to have her then sit down and endure 15 minutes of your best friend telling the audience some salacious things about you.

Is this acceptable? My friend is now ad libbing? Begining of speech, early handover from Father in law. (having just slaughtered FIL on handover)
'In all seriousness, I'd like to thank X and Y and of course Volvo for that fateful night in the Z carpark in (insert town) 37 years ago for me being able to be here today?'
Thats good right?

Your only role is to be sincere and to let them know that the best man is a liar.
