"My buddy comes back up dejected and tells us it's not going to happen," a friend recounted in a summary he sent to Deadspin. "Two minutes later, Bill f------ Murray walks into the room and gives this speech."
The groomsmen made sure to tape the speech, in which a wizened Murray explained that bachelor parties aren't really for the groom-to-be.
"You know how funerals are not for the dead, they're for the living?" he started. "Bachelor parties are not for the groom, they're for the unmarried."
"Listen here, I'm going to give you all advice because it's too late for this guy," Murray continued, motioning to the future groom. "This is what I recommend to you. If you have someone who you think is the one … Take that person and travel around the world. Buy two plane tickets and travel all around the world. Go to places that are hard to go to and hard to get out of."
"And when you come back to JFK (Kennedy Airport), you're still in love with that person, get married at the airport," Murray said.
