She specialises in crafting custom poems that beautifully enhance weddings to tell personal love stories and be read during ceremonies. They also make wonderful gifts for special individuals at the wedding party or for the parents. Each poem is uniquely created to meet specific needs. Emma shares, “Writing poems has been my passion since childhood. I’ve transformed my hobby into a career, and I’m here to write for you. Every poem is one-of-a-kind and tailored just for you. All I need is information about your loved ones, and I’ll create something truly memorable. It often brings tears of joy, which is a beautiful thing. We may think our loved ones know how we feel, but there’s something incredibly impactful about seeing those feelings expressed in writing. With my touch of poetic magic, it becomes a keepsake to cherish forever.” Prices begin at £65 for a personalised poem comprising six to eight verses.
