A milestone in the life of a person or entire family, the social speech can be forgotten once the event has passed – or become a cherished memory. The better-written the speech, the more likely it will be remembered by those you value.
For social occasions, I provide laughs. I mix up important messages and serious emotions with light-hearted comments and observations.
In some cases, I save people from social disaster. There are many pitfalls for the inexperienced speaker. I can guide you through them.
Over the past seven years, I have written hundreds of speeches for all types of occasion: weddings, birthdays, bar mitzvahs, anniversaries and memorial services. I have a great deal of material to draw on. I use my extensive library of quotations and am a compulsive collector of ‘one-liners’.
I have helped cricketers, golfers, Rotarians, Masons and even a few VIPs to polish their act.
