“At least 20 people told me it was the best wedding speech they've ever heard. Another 100 told me they loved it one way or another. The brilliant part is that Den is actually pulling the speech out of you and organizing your thoughts - the memories, tone and jokes are all yours.” (more)

How to give the best groom speech they’ve ever heard…
Original
Your relationship with your fiancée is like no one else’s.
But it’s difficult to step back from years of thoughts, memories and feelings to make sense of it all.
I get to the heart, soul and humor of your relationship to create a speech only one person in the world can give—you.
Authentic
Your voice and personality can’t be captured in canned speeches, generic compliments and silly lines found online.
Audiences want an authentic, inside look at your relationship and will feel bored and manipulated if you try and con them with the same empty platitudes that can be said at every wedding everywhere. Snore.
Organized
The best groom speech is grounded in the fact humans have been hard-wired for story since the Stone Age.
So like a movie, your speech must grab, entertain and surprise the audience in a simple narrative structure that is more showing than telling.
