Who are we
Enter Speechy’s TopDog and wedding speech expert: Heidi Ellert-McDermott.
After giving her own bride speech, she realised that a good speech had the potential to add an amazing moment to the wedding day. She also realised it was one of the few areas of wedding planning where brides and grooms lacked quality resources and help. Heidi then decided to recruit some speechwriters and viola, Speechy was born.
Over the past year, Heidi’s been quoted everywhere from The New York Times to The Telegraph. Her wedding speech advice has been featured in The Guardian, Radio 1, The Daily Mail and Huffington Post.
