# Vows & Speeches

> Vows & Speeches is a premium custom speechwriting and delivery coaching service co-founded in 2021 by Brian Franklin, a communications expert with a career in political consulting, advertising, education, and music. The company writes custom wedding vows, wedding speeches, ceremony scripts, eulogies, corporate presentations, love letters, and other spoken-word content for milestone occasions. Based in the United States, serving clients nationally and internationally (US, Canada, UK, and beyond) in English. Translation available for additional cost. Featured in The New York Times, AP News, Forbes, Brides, The Knot, and Bridal Guide. Brian appeared on Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend in the episode "The Wedding Ringer." Hundreds of clients served. 5-star Google rating.

Every engagement begins with a recorded one-on-one interview — not a questionnaire — so the writer can capture the client's authentic voice, tone, humor, and stories. All content is human-written by Brian Franklin, never by AI; the only use of AI anywhere in the process is transcribing the interview recording so Brian works from the client's exact words. Packages include unlimited revisions and delivery coaching sessions. The New York Times calls Brian "The Humorist."
