VIDEO: This Irish Best Man’s Speech Surprise is Absolutely Wicked

A late contender for best man of the year.

Just when we think we’ve seen every variety of wedding surprise going (from the bride, the groom, the mother-in-law, the bridesmaids and best men) another one comes along and knocks our socks off. 

Step forward Bryan Griffin, who acted as best man for Brian Meaney when he wed beautiful bride Carol Murphy over the weekend in the stunning Kilshane House.

Given that both bride and groom are huge fans of musical theatre and in particular Wicked, the tale of witches of Oz before Dorothy dropped into town, Bryan decided a special rendition of the musicals biggest number was the order of the day.

There’s something about the beard and tattoos, particularly when he is playing Glinda, that make this one of the best things we’ve seen all day.

Cheers to Bryan’s wife Mags Kearns-Griffin for sending this one our way – you guys are welcome at Her.ie any time.
