I write and perform speeches at weddings
Not just the traditional line up of speeches
I believe that wedding speeches should be more than just jokes and embarrassing stories. Speeches should be about you as a couple and remind everyone in the room exactly what it is that makes you perfect for each other.
Write & Perform
I’ll write you an original speech and perform it on your special day. I’ll work with you to design and plan the speech before collecting content from you, your family and friends. You’ll have full creative control and I’ll send you as many drafts (and audio recordings) as it takes until you’re happy we’ve got the perfect piece.
Some couples choose to leave me to it, and hear the speech for the first time on the big day - I’m happy either way.
The speech itself can take whatever form you like and be as ‘speechy’ or ‘not speechy’ as you want it to be! I could tell a romantic tale of your courtship, have the room in fits of laughter at your cringiest moments, or simply weave together the opinions and observations of your family and friends like a mix-tape of you’re ‘perfect story’.
I pride myself on getting to know you as a couple, mingling with your guests on the day and then delivering the speech as if I was one of them.
Just Write
I’ll offer you the same original speech detailed above - the only difference being that I’ll leave it to you to perform the speech on the day. I’ll send you both a written copy and a full audio recording of myself delivering the speech so that you can get to grips with the timing, tone and tempo. If required I’ll then meet with you, in person or virtually, to help you work on your delivery to ensure you feel confident to perform your perfect speech.
Delivery Coaching
I’ve delivered many speeches in my time and know just how nerve wracking the experience can be. I’ll spend a few hours with you to help you edit the speech you’ve written and hone your delivery. You’ll leave the session feeling confident and ready to deliver a memorable performance on the big day.
