Wedding Speech & Toast Writer

Write a heartfelt, funny wedding speech from your real stories — structured with a hook, laughs, one emotional beat, and a clean toast under your time limit.

The Prompt — replace [BRACKETS] with your details

Act as a speechwriter. Write a [BEST MAN / MAID OF HONOR / PARENT / FRIEND] wedding speech for [COUPLE'S NAMES]'s wedding.

Raw material (use ONLY these — don't invent stories):
- My relationship to them: [HOW YOU KNOW THEM, HOW LONG]
- 2-3 real stories or moments: [BRIEF NOTES — INCLUDE ONE FUNNY, ONE WARM]
- What I genuinely admire about their relationship: [NOTES]
- Tone: [E.G., 70% FUNNY 30% HEARTFELT]
- Length: [MINUTES] minutes max (~130 words per minute)
- Anything to avoid: [EXES, IN-JOKES, EMBARRASSING TOPICS]

Structure it: a hook that isn't "for those who don't know me", the funny story with a callback later, the warm story, one line that lands the emotional beat, and a short toast everyone can raise a glass to. Mark [PAUSE] where I should let laughter or emotion breathe.

How to use this prompt
