Fresh off the digital camera, I finally have photos of my buddy’s wedding day. My brief stint as the best man ended a week ago with the ceremony and reception between Andrew and Belinda. Drew made it easy and I was glad I was part of this moment of their lives. Here are some pictures and copy of my potential speech. Luckily I wasn’t required to make one, but I did prepare for it. It’s kinda cheesy and I chickened out on it, but whatever! I was sick. Really I was.

Hi. My name is Johnny Lam and I am the Best Man to Andrew. Andrew told me that I didn’t have to make a speech but I didn’t know if he was joking or not. Good thing I went with my instincts. I mean for those of you who know Andrew, you know it’s hard to really take him seriously at times. The guy is constantly joking and laughing after every sentence. For example, “Hey Johnny, I am going to ask Belinda to marry me. Hehehe.”

I mean how do you believe someone who is chasing Hollywood celebrities as a day job? Or how do you believe someone who tells you that they just won a contest to propose to their girlfriend on national television in New York City? But after I got past his giggling I knew he was very serious about marrying Belinda. And I couldn’t be happier for the both of them. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them who was the guy constantly calling them when they were at New York for the proposal. Dude I was so proud of him!

(Ok seriously), I am truly honored to be part of this joyous occasion. Thank you Andrew and Belinda for letting me participate in this magical moment with you. I am glad that you guys found each other and found the love and companionship you both deserve. And with that, ladies and gentlemen, let us all raise our glass and help me usher in a lifetime of everlasting love as they begin their lives together. Congratulations!
