Worst "I've got a girlfriend" thread ever.

On the basis that I was unlikely to be anyone's best man, I did (IMO) a storming Groom's speech. Some top drawer comedy in there.
If I could do it again, I would be a bit more soppy to the bride and cut a few of the b-grade jokes. But hey, it worked.

I'm pretty confident I forgot to thank anyone and just did a stand-up set about my life....

883 words at the moment. Too many? Too little?

Base it on how long it takes you read it out loud at the right pace (no rushing).
6-7 minutes, ish.

Far too long for the Groom. Thirty seconds, job done.
Seems a bit long, I'd try to knock it down a bit and focus on what you really want to say rather than what you think is expected. End of the day I can't remember any speech made by the groom, a couple by the best man stick in my mind but only bits so don't worry about it.
Shortened it a bit and skipped parts as I was a blubbering mess of big manly tears.
Went well though I was told.
