In the traditional sense, the best man for a groom is typically his closest friend, someone he has complete trust in. It’s the person who knows him beyond just his name, but rather his entire being.

A best man for the groom is someone who has been there for him through good times and bad. Sometimes, the perfect choice for the best man happens to be the groom’s own beloved brother. However, even though a brother’s love can be strong, they may not always be the best choice to handle the microphone at a wedding.

The success of a wedding ceremony often hinges on the quality of the speeches delivered. Wedding speeches are often brimming with sincere messages and good wishes for the newly married couple. Wedding speeches often revolve around the cherished memories shared by friends and family members of the couple.

But this one is completely unique. This is a captivating story from the groom’s brother/best man that goes back two decades. In a playful twist, the quick-witted best man took the opportunity to share a lighthearted prank he had pulled on his older brother.

In his speech, he started by sharing a story from the past about his older brothers, Dave and Mark, who once had an intense paintball battle at the house next door.

At the tender age of eight, he was already captivated by the exhilarating world of paintball and yearned to become a part of it. Mark told them he wanted to join when he went to their house, but they turned him down.

During his wedding speech, he explained, “Like any older brother would tell any little brother.” He continued, “But like any other little brother, I ran upstairs; I got my stuff anyway, and I was going to follow them whether they liked it or not.”

He thought it was time for payback. Unfortunately, when he finally had all his equipment ready, his older brother had already left. Driven by a burning sense of unfairness, he resolved to take matters into his own hands and seized a few abandoned paintballs that Mark had left behind.

His older brothers were taken aback when he disclosed this during his speech.

In a casual recounting, he shared the story of how he joyfully launched Mark’s paintballs at the neighboring house. The groom, filled with disbelief, questioned the credibility of his younger brother’s story. However, his brother assured him that he was completely serious.

He shared, «So, Dave made it clear to the neighbors and our parents that it couldn’t have been him, or it couldn’t have been Mark because their paintball is not that color.»

The older brothers remained astounded, and the groom added, “I got in so much trouble for that.”
As expected, the neighbors and parents brushed off David’s efforts to shift blame. As a result, the older brothers were given the responsibility of tidying up the chaos. Despite knowing he would eventually have to confess, the younger brother chose to keep quiet, prioritizing his desire to watch TV that day, much to the amusement of the audience.

In a funny ending, the younger brother said, «So, I bring this up 20 years later as a wedding gift to him to put this to rest: I was the one who threw those paintballs. So thank you for letting me watch TV that night.”

Wow, this wedding speech is truly a masterpiece, don’t you think? Picture holding onto a secret for two decades, only to reveal the hilarious story on your brother’s special day.
