What a maid of honor speech needs
- Who you are to the bride, in one line, before the room wonders.
- One memory that shows who she is, told with real detail.
- The moment you knew the partner was right for her.
- A sincere word to the couple that does not turn into a list of in-jokes.
- A toast the whole room can join.
Emma and I shared a bedroom for fourteen years, which means I know two things about her. She talks in her sleep, and she is always, always right about people.
So when she came home after a second date and said, very calmly, "I am going to marry him," I did not laugh. I asked what his name was. It was Daniel. Daniel, I have been waiting four years to tell you that she called it.

How it works
Answer a few questions

The plan for the speech, its opening lines, and three questions that dig out the detail that makes it land.
Get your speech in a minute
Pay once and watch it being written. Revise it as often as you need, then print cue cards or rehearse with read-aloud.
The best man and a parent speaking too?
One order for 3 speakers at the same wedding, for example the best man, the maid of honor and a parent. You fill in your speech now; each speaker adds their own details later through their own link, and the speeches are coordinated so no story or joke is told twice.
€85 for 3 coordinated speeches, instead of €39 each. Every speech has its own 10 revisions. On the form, choose the occasion and then “Wedding party pack: 3 speeches for €85”.
Questions
How long should a maid of honor speech be?
Three to five minutes, about 400 to 650 spoken words. One story told well and a sincere word to the couple fit comfortably; anything longer starts to feel like a list. Choose the length on the form and the speech is timed to it.
Does the maid of honor speak in the UK?
In the US the maid of honor usually gives a toast at the reception, often just before or after the best man. In the UK the chief bridesmaid or matron of honour traditionally did not speak, but many now do, usually after the groom and before or alongside the best man. Tell us which you follow, or choose English (UK) for British spelling.
What should a maid of honor not say?
Nothing about exes, the hen do or bachelorette, or stories the bride would not want her grandparents to hear. The writer keeps teasing gentle and makes sure the partner is part of the speech, not an afterthought. Add anything off limits under "Anything to avoid?".
Can I mention someone who has died?
Yes. Add them under "Anything that must be in it?" and we write a short, warm mention in the right place, so the speech keeps its lift.
Our money-back promise
If your speech is not what you hoped for, use the withdrawal form within 14 days of your order and we refund the full price. We make this promise voluntarily, on top of your statutory rights.
It applies once per customer (the same email address or card), the request must reach us before the event date you gave on the order form, and we ask you to tell us briefly what was not right. Other requests within the 14 days are reviewed by a person and answered by email.
