As professional wedding speech ghostwriters, we were dubious that Artificial Intelligence could write an original, witty and meaningful maid of honour speech. And we were right. Jump onto ChatGPT, Gemini or any of the other AI models and you’ll find it hard.

Artificial intelligence needs to be instructed by experts in the field. That’s why the Speechy team of globally recognised speechwriters (and authors of ‘The Modern Couple’s Guide to Wedding Speeches’) took nine months to develop SpeechyAI.

A SpeechyAI speech is not like your standard AI maid of honour speech. We use the pro-level AI, not the freebie version, so your speech stands out for all the right reasons. It’s been trained to avoid cheesy wedding gags, cliches and platitudes. Instead SpeechyAI creates uniquely funny & sentimental lines that could only be said by you.

AI Maid of Honour Speech – SpeechyAI Example

**Greetings**

“Good evening, everyone!

For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Jennifer, and I’ve had the absolute pleasure—and occasionally perplexing challenge—of calling Sara my best friend since our school days. She may now be a high-flyer in the HR world but I’m her human resource manager in the game of life, and today it’s my job to share a few entertaining tales that confirm just why she’s the right fit to be standing here today, alongside her partner-in-crime, Billy. And yes, they do pay me in wine. So sit back, relax, and let’s hope I don’t get fired before the end of this speech!

**Funny Tribute to Your Friend/Sibling**

Now, let me start by telling you a bit about the one and only Sara. Look at her today; beautiful and wonderfully stylish but let me tell you she wasn’t always that way. Back in Lanier Middle School we bonded over a shared love of terrible fashion choices and our ability to rock both low rise jeans and high rise thongs.

Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and Mischa Barton were our style icons. In fact, anyone who was going to end up in rehab were our go-to inspiration. It was all belly button chains, Von Dutch hats, and not much else.  

By the time we went to college we were keeping the bronzer industry in business. We were so orange – even in the winter months – you wouldn’t have been able to pick us out in a pumpkin patch.

Which is fitting really because,  Halloween is basically Sara’s Super Bowl. No one does Halloween like her. This morning, I half-expected a smoke machine in church and her to fly down the aisle on a broomstick.

Instead, she opted to walk down the aisle gracefully, which considering how competitive she is, must have been hard for her. I know she must have been wanting to beat her dad to that pulpit but luckily for all involved, she resisted the urge for a sprint finish.  

Yes, if you didn’t know, Sara is now obsessed with health and fitness—which partially explains why I mostly see her in spandex. We’ve had countless girls’ weekends away, devouring swanky dinners and then, while I nap, Sara goes out for a quick ‘15k’ and quietly judges my lack of healthy habits.

**Genuine tribute to Your Friend/Sibling**

The truth is, Sara is shockingly good at everything. She can speak French, Spanish, and probably some Italian—in short, she’s effective at ordering coffee in almost any European country. She’s run two different successful businesses, climbs hills for fun, and is now training to be a volunteer fireperson. And if you think she’s flaunting any of this, think again. Sara wouldn’t dare show off. Instead, she quietly excels at everything while the rest of us struggle to open a jar of pickles.

One thing about Sara is her unusual habits and hobbies. Who else could seamlessly blend beekeeping with marathon hill running and still have time for some edgy humor and naughty language over a glass of wine? Not to mention, she’s got a knack for gardening. Seriously, she’s like the Swiss Army knife of best friends.

But it’s not just her talents that make her special—it’s her immense kindness, unending support, and loyalty. Through every triumph and misstep, I’ve relied on her, and she on me. We’ve laughed ourselves to tears over our mutual attempts to be cool—and always failing spectacularly.

**Tribute to Your Friend/Sibling’s Partner**

Now, onto Billy. Can we just say thank goodness Sara found someone who is just as fabulous, funny, and generally as brilliant as she is. Someone’s who’s willing to let their beloved dogs sleep in their bed and lick their faces too. Clearly, these two are equally brilliant and equally unhygienic.

But in all seriousness, meeting in a bar 15 years ago, who knew they’d turn out to be such a power couple? With shared entrepreneurial spirits and a knack for making us all feel at home.

Billy, for those who don’t know him well, is a bar owner with a wicked sense of humor and a talent for cooking the best steak ever. He’s the kind of guy who is quietly funny—you wouldn’t mess with him, but you’d definitely trust him. Together, he and Sara make a team I can’t imagine breaking apart. They complement each other’s quirks in the best ways, providing unwavering support just where it’s needed.

**The Affectionate Conclusion**

So, as we stand here today to celebrate this beautiful union, I’m bursting with happiness. Sara, you look absolutely stunning, glowing with the kind of joy only Billy can bring you. You two complement each other in the most wonderful ways, and it’s plain to see that together, you’re unstoppable. You’ve both shared laughter, dreams, and even fears, proving that you’re the perfect teammates in the game of life.

So here’s my advice, Billy: Keep sharing those laughs, cherish your love, and occasionally, let her win at something even though she’s already annoyingly good at everything.

So lovely people, please join me in a toast to the newlyweds, Sara and Billy. To Sara and Billy!”

How Does SpeechyAI Work?

SpeechyAI is an AI maid of honour speech tool designed by the Speechy team. It comes with a delight guarantee as we’re incredibly proud of the speeches it produces.

  • Once you’ve purchased, you’ll be asked a series of questions (around 40-50 so, although you can complete it quicker, we recommend you dedicate an hour to the process).
  • You’ll be asked what role you have at the wedding and then you’ll be presented with the appropriate questions. They range from the obvious (how did you meet, where is the wedding being held etc) to the more thought-provoking prompts (how does she make you laugh, what’s her guiltiest pleasure, what is she surprisingly bad at etc).
  • When you complete the questions, SpeechyAI will take about three minutes to create three unique speeches based on your responses.
  • These speeches will be distinctive but follow the Speechy team’s speechwriting principles. To get a better sense of what that means, check out our Maid of Honour Speech Advice.

''I had an unbelievable experience working with Speechy. From the moment I got in touch with them I felt supported and come the day of my best mans speech, it went down a storm with a standing ovation.''
''Speechy deserves more than 5 stars. (They) produced a factual, funny Mother of the Bride speech with just the right amount of emotion..... it was ingenious. Thank you so much for the wonderful & priceless memory of having delivered my speech at my daughter’s wedding and nailed it ... and got a standing ovation too. My children were very proud of me, including my new son-in-law! ''
''These Guys are tremendous! One main point is that its not their speech - its yours! This is because it is based totally around what you would like to say, but its the spin that Speechy puts on it, that is the magical bit... Ordinary words become a hilariously entertaining event. There were giggles, applauds, laughs, tears, cheers and standing ovation – all in that order!''
''Feeling anxious or stressed about an upcoming speech? Look no further than Speechy... I just delivered my Best Man speech this past weekend and absolutely crushed it. I was nervous leading up to the moment, but while delivering my speech, I didn't want the experience to end, the room was hooked, and laughing at every joke. Worth every penny... Thank you!''
''Navigating through the wedding industry often feels like you’re stuck on a conveyer belt....Speechy is the complete opposite. They treat you and your wedding like you’re the one and only. I couldn’t recommend them more.''
''Heidi and the whole team at Speechy are an absolute gem! In addition to their talent and extensive experience in speech writing, Heidi had an impressive way of listening to me talk about mine and my partners personal anecdotes, before putting it in such a funny and beautiful way that it felt as though she’d known us for years.''
