Personalised poems are a wonderful gift to give and receive and one that will last in the memory of those in attendance long after the event is over and done with!
Sean decided to set up Event Poems due to his love of poetry, “I have always been writing poems for my friends for various occasions, especially weddings and birthdays and I have been doing that for years. It’s something that you can keep forever and frame, it’s a keepsake of a certain event in your life. I also write radio plays, speeches, and the odd song or two. Rhyming and humour come naturally to me and I really enjoy seeing people’s reactions which, so far, have been very complimentary. My poems are individually crafted – not formulaic – they achieve what no other gift can – something to remember – something to cherish.”
Each poem is unique with Sean highlighting the various aspects that are important to you and that you wish to be included for a truly personal touch.
Usually, a poem of 4 to 6 verses (4 lines in each) is sufficient, but not always. An eight-verse poem can be written at no extra cost. Thereafter, there is a charge per verse of €10. For framing purposes please bear in mind that the standard A4 page holds 8 verses.
There are a variety of poem packages available from Event Poems, the mini poem is €40 and consists of 4-8 lines, a standard poem is €100 and consists of 8 verses with 4 lines per verse and you will also be supplied with an MP3 recording of the poem. Finally, the complete package is priced at €140 and contains an 8 verse poem with 4 lines per verse, an MP3 recording and a printed scroll with the poem on will be mailed to you also.
Event Poems also provides a speech writing service whereby Sean will craft a speech for you to use at events if you are not too confident in your own writing, again personalised for your own particular needs and wants.
Seans tells me, “If you feel that a little overwhelmed because you have to make an important speech then you’ve come to the right place. The essence of a great speech is to keep it concise, interesting, amusing and rewarding. Be it a best man’s speech, or a political or business speech I can craft it for you to include the most prevalent points in an interesting and amusing way should that be desired. Writing is my passion and I am honoured to share that someone.”
