Your reception is as important as your ceremony, and by having a Master of Ceremonies at your wedding will ensure the smooth and timely running of the day. 

Weddings and receptions are exciting celebrations. 

Preparation is key to a reception that flows effortlessly, and that is why it is always recommended to hire a professional who is experienced, confident, and can be trusted.

You could have a guest or family member do it - but they will have to remember to hold back on their wine consumption. We've all heard of stories where its gone all wrong!

Guests, the wedding party and the bride and groom are usually buzzing with good wishes, sentimental tears, and later, food, fun and dancing. With a mix for friends, families, new in-laws, co-workers, and neighbours, things can become quite chaotic. 

To keep the ceremony moving along, to make sure that everything the bride and groom want to have happen at their reception takes place, the "MC" at a wedding reception is the point person with the microphone in hand to keep the energy and flow to this part of your day.

With years of experience - I can make it work for you and all you need to do is relax and enjoy the party!
