AN: this is a speech Harry say's as best man for Ron and Hermione.
Now really what can I say about two people like Ron and Hermione. On the build up to this day I can not tell you how many nights I have tried to put something down on to paper so I can speak from that just so I could get this perfect for them, both of them.
I even tried to plan it out just how Hermione used to tell me and Ron to while we were at Hogwarts doing our homework in the common room but in the end I just came to the conclusion nothing was going to work so please excuse me if this isn't perfect as in fact it is coming straight I guess from my heart.
Well what can I say really about two such individual people? Who would have known eight years to the day since Hermione told Ron he had dirt on his nose for the first time that they were going to be married? I certainly didn't that's for sure.
I don't think they will mind if I remind every one that the has never been a fairy tale romance as the thing that silled our friendship was the day we rescued Hermione from the toilets were she had been crying over some thing Ron had said about her.
In all truth I can not what it was he said now but what ever it was I am glad he did because that is what brought us them and me together and I guess in some ways silled our fates for the coming years.
There is no doubt in my mind that with out these two by my side I could not have got through any thing.
Hermione's brain and Ron's loyalty brought me through and gave me courage and strength as well as hope.
They didn't have to do half the things they did for me but they did. I never even had to ask them.
They just were there for me, regardless of anything, through the think and the thin I guess with out sounding to cheesy.
And that is why I think I have to try and do them proud in this speech thing I have no idea how to do that. I have prattled on about the past bringing up things that are best forgotten so now I think I have to say what is re ally and truly important for today and that is we are all thrilled for you guys.
It has been clear to a lot of people for a long time that this is meant to be and I am honoured to be the one saying all this for them.
It is high time these two had a bit of true love, happiness and peace and I am thrilled top see they have found it together.
So come, let's toast the bride and the groom: To Mr Ronald and Mrs Hermione Weasley, the best friends who ever lived. Long may they be happy together for many years to come!
