Frequently Asked Questions
Should I give the eulogy for my own spouse or partner?
Only if you want to. Many spouses ask a sibling, an adult child or a close friend to speak instead, and nobody thinks less of them. If you do speak, write it out in full and ask someone to stand beside you ready to read the last lines if you cannot.
How long should a eulogy for a husband or wife be?
Four to six minutes, or about 500 to 800 words, and shorter is fine. Grief slows delivery to around 110 words a minute, so a page and a half of ordinary type is already five minutes. Nobody is timing you. Say what you need to say.
What should I include in a eulogy for my partner?
How you met and the first thing you noticed, one everyday ritual that shows who they were, what they gave to other people so the room sees more than the marriage, and what you will miss. Thank the people who cared for them at the end. That is enough.
How do I get through a eulogy for my spouse without breaking down?
You may not, and that is allowed. Print it in large type with pauses marked. Practise it aloud once, alone, so the first time you hear the hard lines is not at the lectern. Have water. Have a person beside you. If you stop, the room will wait.
Is it all right to include humour in a eulogy for my partner?
If they were funny, yes, and the room will be grateful. A line about the way they loaded the dishwasher or argued with the satnav lets people laugh with you, which loosens the grief for a moment. Keep it to something everyone present will recognise.
How does the AI speech generator work?
Our AI uses the personal details and stories you provide to craft a unique, personalized speech. Simply answer a few questions about your relationship, share meaningful memories, and choose your preferred tone and length. The AI then generates 3 different draft variations for you to choose from and customize.
Can I edit the generated speech?
Absolutely! The generated drafts are starting points. You can edit every word, add your own touches, and refine until it sounds exactly like you. We recommend using the AI as a foundation and then personalizing it with specific details only you would know.
How long should my speech be?
Most speeches work best at 3-5 minutes (around 400-600 words). This gives you enough time to share meaningful content without losing your audience's attention. Our generator lets you choose between short (2-3 min), medium (4-5 min), and long (6-7 min) options.
