This is not your day to be center of attention. Leave the pranks for the bachelor party.

Grow the fvck up :roll:

You do know his wife will hate you forever right? You'll be *that* friend of his that could never grow up or let go of the "college days." Don't be that guy.

My buddy is getting married in a few days, and I'm best man. I want to see to it that it's memorable, so I'm looking for some ideas of pranks for the reception. They need to be clean, and shouldn't use anything too off-the-wall--if I don't have the required materials, I'll probably only have time to get some stuff at Walmart.

Some examples of things I'm already working on: Fake ice cubes with bugs visible inside them, for the punch. Remote controlled "whoopee cushion" to hide under his chair. Booby-trapping various objects with string-trigger firecrackers, hopefully the knife for the bride/groom's cake will be able to trigger one when he picks it up 😀

based on what you just said... they should have chosen someone else to be the best man.
DO NOT DO ANYTHING STUPID AT THE WEDDING OR RECEPTION. i assure you, no one will find it funny and you will have lost a good friend.
THIS is NOT the time nor place.
 
Another vote for not doing it ... go hog wild at the bachelor party if you must, but be an adult for the ceremony AND the reception. The bride and groom are under enough stress as it is, and your silly pranks will not make them laugh.

Seriously, this is one of the first times I've seen OT gang up on the right side of a discussion.

QFT and so you don't make an F'in fool of yourself. Heed the advice of ATOT this time.


Yeh don't be an attention whore. The girls father probably laid out a bunch of jack for the reception so let his daughter have her day.

The groom obviously made a poor choice in choosing a Best Man. Grow the fvck up you child.
 
The likely outcome of your misguided jocularity will be that his wife will NEVER forgive you and will immediately begin driving a wedge between the two of you.

If you want to pull a prank on him, have some lingerie delivered to their honeymoon hotel that is 20 sizes too large with a note to his wife from him. Honeymoons are fair game, a bride's day is not.

If someone, I don't care who, had this set up at my reception, I would make sure they were removed from the party.

Wait, I'm supposed to have a speech? They haven't told me that yet, doh.

Note that I'm talking about pulling stuff at the reception, not the ceremony; I wouldn't think of disturbing the ceremony. "Crashing" was an over-dramatization... I'm not looking to do any attention whoring, just to cause minor disturbances that leaves people wondering who did it.

The reception costs nearly 10-25,000 for most weddings. It has the first dance with her father his dance with his mother, lots of memories that photographers are paid big bucks to capture.

Have you ever been to a wedding/ wedding reception before? I recommend you see at least one before their wedding. If you don't think you can handle being best man then step down. Everyone at the wedding will shun you and it may just be the most embarrasing day of your life and a sabotaged wedding for your friend and his new wife.

you sound like tons of fun :laugh:

actually, just take a dump in his shoes. it's cheaper than WalMart and should be enough prank for him for a lifetime.

Agreed! I'm getting married in 1 week and would be pissed if you were my best man.
 
If I made you best man at my wedding and you pulled some of the stupid sh!t you've mentioned, I would beat your ass in front of all the guests there. This is a once in a lifetime thing (hopefully), not some kiddie birthday party.

Why would you want to do this?

Why would you want to ruin your friend and his bride's wedding day?

Do you dislike them that much?

Are you jealous of them?

I am trying to understand your motivation for pulling pranks at a wedding.
 
You are an f'ing moron. If I had a friend as stupid as you do that crap to me on my wedding day, he would have been toast. The only thing you have rights to mess with is the car that they leave in. Other than that, be prepared to have your ass kicked.
