What if your brother, or best friend, isn't your Best Man?

It's a dilemma that a lot of grooms face...What to do when their best friend, or worse, their brother is someone  EXPECTING to be asked to be the best man - but for whatever reason, he isn't the right guy for the job or the guy the groom has in mind for the role of the best man. It comes up frequently when a groom goes off to college, and soon becomes best friends with a brother at a fraternity. Or where, at work, the groom and a buddy put in some long and hard hours, be it at a law firm on a deal, or as brothers in arms in Iraq. The guys at GroomGroove.com have seen it all. Here's how a groom can deal with it.
