Master of Ceremonies and Toastmasters
Whether you hire in a professional or ask a favour from a friend, having a Master of Ceremonies on duty at your wedding will help. They are the point person with microphone in hand, their job is to inform the wedding party of what’s happening.
From Photographs, to announcing when the breakfast will be served. Once guests are seated the MC will announce the entrance and lead a round of cheering and applause. The MC can then announce the tossing of the bouquet, introduce speeches and cutting of the cake.
