Whether you’re marking your 50th, 60th, 70th, or even your 90th birthday, this template helps you entertain your guests, share great memories, and bring the house down with laughter (without cringing at cheesy one-liners).

Unlike other templates out there, this one is NOT…

  • ❌ Full of recycled dad jokes

Instead, you’ll get three expertly crafted speech options designed for easy personalisation.

Created by an ‘excellent’ rated team of TV-trained scriptwriters, Speechy’s templates ensure your speech is memorable for all the right reasons.

(And if you’re planning on delivering a speech at a loved one’s birthday – we have the perfect template for you too!)

Why Use Our Birthday Speech Template? (Click on the Headings to Find Out!)

The Speechy team including Heidi Ellert-McDermott

The Speechy team, led by BBC-trained scriptwriter Heidi Ellert-McDermott, knows what makes a speech stand out. Our words have been featured everywhere from The Times to The New York Times, the BBC, and beyond. We’ve written for TV comedians, BAFTA-winning shows, and even some high-profile names we can’t mention (but trust us, they’re funny).

Now, we’re bringing our insider speechwriting secrets straight to you.

We know a great birthday speech isn’t just about saying “thank you” and awkwardly raising a glass. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to bring your favourite people together, make them laugh, maybe even shed a tear, and create a memory that lasts long after the last slice of cake is gone.

That’s where this birthday speech template comes in!

Celebration speech

Let’s be honest – no one wants a dull, cookie-cutter speech where you just plug in a few names and dates.

That’s why we spent months crafting a template that’s structured for success but flexible enough to make it 100% YOU.

  • Whether you’re turning 40, 50, 60, or reaching a legendary 90th milestone, this template is designed to help you tell your story in a unique, meaningful, and memorable way
  • We’ll guide you to add funny anecdotes, heartfelt thank-yous, and the perfect amount of nostalgia
  • Think of it like a conversation with your guests, not a formal speech – it should feel natural, witty, and engaging

We know birthday speeches can be a minefield. That’s why we’ve handled the speech etiquette, so you don’t have to panic about:

  • Who to thank (without it turning into an Oscars acceptance speech)
  • How to keep it short but meaningful (yes, people want to get back to the wine)
  • What’s appropriate for your audience (whether it’s a mixed-age crowd or just your best mates)

Whether this is a 60th, 70th, 80th or any big birthday celebration – consider your boxes ticked!

Father laughing at wedding speech

Every speech needs a few laughs – but that doesn’t mean Googling “funny birthday jokes” and awkwardly reading out a dad joke.

At Speechy, we believe in real-life humour – the kind that comes from your actual experiences, not recycled internet gags.

  • We’ll prompt you with storytelling techniques that make even the simplest memory sound hilarious and relatable
  • Whether it’s your most embarrassing moment, your strangest party experience, or an unexpected life lesson, we help you turn it into a genuinely funny moment
  • The best part? No forced punchlines, no awkward silence – just natural, effortless humour

This is comedy writing made easy, and trust us, your guests will thank you for it.

A great birthday speech isn’t just a list of thank-yous – it’s a mini-story about your journey, your quirks, and what this milestone really means to you.

That’s why we’ve built this template around strong storytelling techniques:

  • Choose from different speech themes – whether you want to go heartfelt, hilarious, or a mix of both
  • Personalisation prompts throughout to help you bring your best stories to life
  • A structure that makes it easy to follow, easy to write, and easy to deliver

So, whether you’re known for your legendary parties, your terrible dance moves, or your slightly questionable life choices, this template helps you turn your memories into a speech your guests will LOVE.

We’re rated ‘Excellent' on Trustpilot for a reason...

Wasn't planning on giving a speech but I was told it was expected. Thank goodness I found this template. No one couldn't believe how good my speech was and it had people properly belly-laughing.
The template was just what I needed. The choices of speeches were all great but 'Older, Not Wiser' stood out for me. It reminded me of all the great memories I could add to the speech & helped me package them up into a really great speech. Thank you!
Great value . Each speech was expertly written and I stole a bit from each. It went down brilliantly at the party and my wife loved it.
