You’re the man who is caught up in a marriage due to no fault of your own, except that you’re a loyal buddy or a great brother!
And what a part it is that you have to play!
The best man’s role is rather complicated. He is the best friend, general handy man and contingency expert rolled into one. From hosting the most memorable stag party to seeing the groom and bride safely ensconced in each other’s arms in the honeymoon car, this man has a lot of work to do.
Get it right and you’re the hero of the day with every female of marriageable age swooning over you. Get it wrong and you’ve ruined the big day that she has been dreaming of ever since she sighed over her first romance novel or movie.
Sadly, men have this habit of leaving the things they do not enjoy 'til the last moment. One week before the wedding, you suddenly realize that you are totally, irrecoverably, hopelessly lost! There’s so much to do. Where do you start? Who do you call?
There’s no need to panic.
Ken York’s "Men of the Wedding – The Final Week" (available from Rum Runner Publishing) is the first book written by a man for the men of the wedding. This book contains all the information the best man needs:
- The best man’s etiquette
- Ceremony and reception responsibilities
- Last minute checklists
- Best man’s dress code
- Sample toasts for the best man
Attend the wedding armed with all the information you need to become the tower of strength and reliability that the groom knew you would be when he selected YOU to be his best man.
