Tone
Warm
Warm, intimate, sincere. Like talking to family late at night.
Powered by Claude Sonnet
An AI wedding speech writer that doesn't write like AI.
Pick a tone — warm, funny, heartfelt, formal or irreverent. Drop in a few real memories. Get a well-paced, edit-ready wedding speech calibrated to the speaker's role and target runtime. Two to fifteen minutes. Plain prose. No clichés.
How it works
Four steps from blank page to rehearsal-ready.
01
Add the speech
Enter the speaker's name, their role (witness, parent, sibling, friend, officiant or the couple) and a target runtime. Two minutes? Five? Eight? Calibration matters.
02
Pick a tone
Five editorial tones — warm, funny, heartfelt, formal, irreverent. Each one is a different system prompt under the hood. Pick the one that sounds like the speaker.
03
Drop in the memories
Anecdotes, in-jokes, the trip to Lisbon, how they actually met. Two lines is enough. The more honest the input, the less generic the output.
04
Generate, edit, rehearse
Output is plain prose calibrated to 130 words per minute — exactly the right length for the runtime. Edit freely. Save the draft. Read it aloud twice before the day.
Five tones
One AI. Five voices.
Tone
Funny
Light and funny without being roast-y. One affectionate gentle joke is plenty. Keeps dignity.
Tone
Heartfelt
Deeply heartfelt and emotional. Lean into the love. Quiet, beautiful sentences.
Tone
Formal
Elegant, restrained. The cadence of a polished toast at a black-tie affair.
Tone
Irreverent
Playful, slightly cheeky, but always loving. Like a best friend who can't help themselves.
Who it's for
Calibrated to who's speaking.
Witness / best man / maid of honour
Most common ask — the one that keeps people up at night.
Parent of the bride or groom
Decades of memory, two minutes to honour them. We help.
Sibling
The ones who remember everything you'd rather forget. Calibrated for love.
Officiant
Ceremony script with the right cadence and the couple's actual story.
The couple themselves
The vow assist — for the one who never knows where to start.

Frequently asked
Quick answers about the AI wedding speech writer.
How does the AI wedding speech writer work?
You provide the speaker's name, role and target runtime. Pick a tone (warm, funny, heartfelt, formal, irreverent) and add a few memories or anecdotes. The AI — powered by Claude Sonnet — drafts a calibrated wedding speech at 130 words per minute, sized exactly to your target length. The output is plain prose ready to read aloud, with no AI clichés or awkward openings.
Which AI model powers the wedding speech writer?
Claude Sonnet from Anthropic. It's the same family of models that powers Claude.ai. We use it because it writes warmer, more nuanced prose than alternatives — wedding speeches need feel, not just structure.
Is the AI wedding speech writer free?
Yes — you can generate drafts for free when you create an account. Premium plans unlock unlimited regenerations and longer runtimes.
How long are the speeches?
Whatever you set as the target — typically two to five minutes for witnesses and friends, two to four for parents, ten to fifteen for officiants. The AI calibrates word count to 130 words per minute (the natural spoken pace) so your draft fits the time.
Can the AI write a vow?
Yes. Pick role 'couple' and tone 'heartfelt' — the model adapts. We recommend writing your vows together with this assist, not having it written for you. It works best when you bring real memories.
Will my speech sound like AI?
No — the system prompt explicitly forbids the usual AI tells: hollow openings ('Today we celebrate love…'), purple metaphors, awkward toasts to oneself, and any phrase that screams 'I was written by ChatGPT'. You will need to edit lightly to add your own voice, but the foundation is clean.
Can I use the wedding speech writer without buying the full platform?
