SPEECH WRITING
Wedding Speeches
Need help with your wedding speech?
One of the highlights of any wedding day are the speeches. However, it's also an incredibly hectic time for those involved and finding time to write that touching, witty and memorable speech can seem a bit daunting. Which is where I come in...
So, to avoid writing your speech on the back of a napkin during the pudding, why not let me take the reins, and I can take all the pressure off you? I can even give you tips as to how best to learn and deliver the speech.
​
The process is simple. You can either email or call me, and we can discuss what kind of speech you're looking for. If you wish to go ahead, I will then send you a questionnaire which is designed to get all the information I need to write your bespoke speech. When filling in the questionnaire, the rule of thumb is simple. The more information, colour and stories (not all of them have to be embarrassing!) I am given by the client, the more I can work with.
A bit about me - I've been working as a freelance writer for over 23 years, and writing wedding speeches for the past six years.
As a professional writer I've worked with comedians such as Al Murray, Jimmy Carr, Lenny Henry, Joan Rivers, Jason Manford, Matt Forde and many more. I've also worked on numerous TV shows, including Danger Mouse (He's asked me to write his best man speech when Penfold meets the right hamster).

Need help with your after dinner speech?
If you need an after dinner speech or help to edit an existing speech you've come to the right place.
If you're someone who needs their after dinner speech to be beefed up or someone who's never done it before I can help. Whether your audience
is corporate or perhaps you're speaking at a sports dinner or an awards ceremony I can make your life that much easier.
Sit back, and let me take the strain and you can take all the accolades. No one ever need know you didn't write it yourself.

For Those of You Tempted By AI
Hi, I’m here to explain why someone who has been writing for a living for thirty years is going to write you a better speech than an automaton.
​
-
I always like to chat to my lovely clients, be it in person, phone or Zoom call.
-
I’ve been writing these speeches for twelve years so I’ve dealt with hundreds of clients and I’m extremely aware of how stressful and nervy a time it can be.
​
-
I will capture your voice – this won’t be a “by numbers” speech. I work from a questionnaire which is designed to glean from you not just the regular information, but your stories and feelings which form the narrative and tone of your speech.
​
-
AI is generic and won’t be able to “get” your voice. It won’t be able to sit down and chat with you, understand you and help you deliver the perfect speech for your special day.
