What People Say

Speeches that landed

★★★★★
"I put off writing this speech until the week of the wedding and started panicking. What came back actually sounded like me, not some generic best man speech I've heard a hundred times before. Got laughs in all the right spots."
Tony Clark — Best Man, Detroit MI
★★★★★
"I've been her best friend for 15 years and didn't want to half-do that justice. This helped me get all those memories into something that actually flowed — funny, then emotional at exactly the right moment. She was in tears, the good kind."
Meagan Mowbray — Maid of Honor, New Smyrna Beach FL
★★★★★
"Public speaking is not my thing, so standing up in front of 150 people scared me more than anything else about being best man. Having a speech that already sounded like something I'd say took the pressure off — I just had to read it like myself."
Haydon Lockhart — Best Man, Old Saybrook CT

Common Questions

Everything you need to know

How long should a wedding speech be?
The ideal wedding speech is 3–4 minutes, which works out to roughly 450–600 words. Best man and maid of honor speeches tend to run 3–5 minutes. Father of the bride speeches are often 4–6 minutes. Going longer than 5 minutes risks losing the room — shorter and tighter is almost always better.
What should a best man speech include?
A great best man speech has four parts: a strong opening that grabs attention, one or two specific stories about the groom (funny but not humiliating), a genuine moment where you welcome the bride and say something real, and a clear toast to close. The biggest mistake is making it too long or too generic — specificity is everything.
How do I start a wedding speech?
Never start with "For those who don't know me" or "The dictionary defines marriage as…" Instead, open with a story, a surprising observation, or a single sentence that immediately reveals something true about the person you're toasting. A strong first line gets the room leaning in.
Is it okay to use AI to write a wedding speech?
Yes — if you personalize it with real stories and details. The AI gives you structure and language; your memories and relationship make it authentic. Wedding Toast asks for specific stories, inside details, and your honest thoughts about the couple, which is what makes the output feel human rather than generic.
Why not just use ChatGPT?
You can — but you'll spend 30 minutes figuring out how to prompt it, and you'll still get something that sounds like AI wrote a wedding speech. Wedding Toast asks you the right questions in the right order, knows what details actually make a speech land, and uses prompts engineered specifically for this. You answer a few questions; we handle the rest. The difference is in the output — it reads like someone who knows the couple wrote it, not like someone who typed "write me a best man speech" into a chatbot.
How much does it cost to have someone write a wedding speech?
Professional speechwriters typically charge $300–$1,500 for a wedding speech, with some charging by the hour ($75–$150/hr). Wedding Toast generates a fully personalized speech for $34 as a one-time payment, with unlimited regenerations included.
What makes a wedding speech memorable?
The speeches people remember have three things: a specific story that reveals who the person really is, one moment of genuine emotion, and a closing toast that's short and direct. Generic observations are forgettable. Specific details are not.
What if I'm not happy with the speech?
We offer a 90-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. If the speech isn't what you needed, submit a support ticket and we'll refund you in full. We'd rather you walk away happy than hold onto $34.
