Generally, it is the groom who will decide who he wants to be his best man. It is very rare that the best man is chosen by another person. The groom's final choice for best man will usually be one of his male best friends. Given that a wedding is a reunion of family and friends, it is natural that the groom would want his best friend to share in his joy at the occasion.
The role of a best man should not be taken lightly. There is a corresponding responsibility attached to this prominent position. Aside from assisting in the wedding preparations, he is primarily responsible for giving the groom a bachelor's or a stag party before the wedding day. The best man must ensure that all the groom's male friends and relatives are present in this party which serves as a farewell to his bachelor status.
On the wedding day itself, he has the task of getting the groom ready and in time for the ceremony. In some instances, the best man is also the safe keeper of the wedding rings, which he should give to the ring bearer at the start of the wedding march or at a suitable time as indicated by the official of the ceremony. After the wedding and during the reception, the best man is expected to render a speech addressed to the married couple and giving a toast for a successful union. In some countries, he is the one in charge of decorating the wedding car.
For the groom, choose someone who is reliable and dependable when deciding who should be your best man.
