Heidi Ellert-McDermott is a TV director and writer turned speechwriter.
She worked at the BBC for the majority of her fifteen-year career, producing entertainment shows.
It was her love of comedy scriptwriting that led to her giving a bride speech that got more compliments than her dress.
Realising there was an appetite for wedding speeches that are modern, witty, and unshackled by tradition, she set up Speechy, a bespoke wedding speech company, employing TV scriptwriters and comedians to help couples around the world achieve their wedding speech goals.
The team's passion for storytelling is revolutionising the wedding scene and Heidi's speech advice has been quoted everywhere from the Observer to the Daily Mail, and from The Drew Barrymore Show to the New York Times.
She lives in the Cotswolds, England with her husband Roger and two children.
And, yes, she did write Roger's groom speech.
