Quick Question For Any Brides Grooms Best Men or Maids of Honour...

Recently, I rejigged my Fiverr and steered away from unsuccessful things to offer speech writing. More speficially, a very niche form of wedding speech writing... but if you were getting married, is this something you'd ever consider? 

The gig is for wedding poems. These are a little bit cheesy, funny and sentimental. They're designed to be fun, but also come out of left field (they work really well when nobody is expecting them in a traditional wedding speech) and you can absolutely get away with murder that wouldn't fly in a traditional spoken word speech. 

I've written a few through the years for people and they've always had an excellent reception, so thought I'd offer the services. I've had two orders this week (both 5-star reviews), but in terms of scalability, is this the kind of thing you'd ever consider mixing in to your speech? Or even using a speech writing service in the first place?

In my previous role I had to give about one set piece speech a fortnight.  My speech writing skills are/were fine but I always gave a mate the finished product so he could polish it and add jokes.  (He now makes money writing books on magic and writing jokes for well-known comedians/sitcoms.). Once he left the company, I continued to use him but of course had to pay him then as it was his main living.  Sorry I can’t remember how much.
