For Every Wedding Role—In Your Voice, Just Better
⏰ Wedding Next Week? I can help—even last-minute speeches

Hi, I'm Wedding Speechwriter and Strategist Den Pope.
For 20+ years, the speakers I work with consistently hear: "That was the best wedding speech I've ever heard."
Most wedding speakers have decades of thoughts, memories and feelings about the bride or groom but no clear way to turn it all into an unforgettable speech.
In one 60-minute call, I ask the right questions, you share your stories and memories, and I write a funny, warm, authentic speech in your voice—just tighter, more fun, and more powerful than you'd write yourself.
No templates. No generic lines. Fully custom for you and the couple.
Most speakers spend 8-12 hours trying to make sense of their memories, writing their speech and wondering if it's good enough. After our 1-hour call, I handle everything and you get the compliments.
Whether you have a rough draft that needs punching up or you're starting from scratch, I'll make sure you nail it.
“More people than I can count said 'best ever.' Even the wedding planner — who tunes out 99% of father speeches — said she was mesmerized.” Read full review →

“I brought down the f-ing house/excuse my French! My maid of honor speech was talked about all night and the entire next day. Guests—including the bride and groom—kept saying it was the best speech they’d ever heard. It was a total hit, and I’m still getting texts and calls about it.” Read full review →

I've been writing speeches for more than 20 years because there's nothing better than watching someone go from nervous to nailing it by delivering a speech they didn't think they could pull off.
I’ve also been a wedding speaker, so I know what it's like to have a million stories in your head but no idea how to make them land. To worry you'll ramble or, even worse, bore everyone and lose the room.
That's why I don't write cookie-cutter speeches. I dig into your stories, your relationship with the couple, and turn it into something that sounds like you on your best day—just funnier, warmer and more polished.
I have two goals: help you deliver a speech the couple will treasure forever, and help make giving this speech one of the best experiences of your life.
How long does it take? Typically 2-3 weeks from start to final speech, but I offer rush service if your wedding is coming up fast.
What if I'm not a writer? That's exactly why I'm here. I ask you all the right questions to capture your best stories and memories, then handle all the writing.
Do you write for all wedding roles? Yes—father of the bride/groom, best man, maid of honor, mother of the bride/groom, officiant, even the couple themselves.

“The speech was the easiest home run I've hit thanks to you! Most important it was great fun and everyone absolutely loved it. They didn't think I had it in me (you're now my secret weapon). So I got amazing compliments all night. Thank you for all your help and for sticking with me even as I had a few questions the morning of the wedding.” Read full review →
