Hello
Welcome
Not only does hiring a professional Toastmaster add a little more ‘gravitas’ to your special day, it also allows you to relax in the knowledge that all the details are safely taken care of. I’m not just the man in the red coat.
I will be your friendly personal assistant for the duration of your celebration. I work for the Bride and Groom and not for the venue. So will be your ‘single point of contact’ between you, your caterers, your photographer and any other service that are working for you on the day.
I'll ensure that all the minor details are taken care of, in a calm and efficient manner, so everything runs according to your plan. Everything from formally announcing the happy couples arrival at the wedding breakfast and introducing the speeches, to making sure that the Best Man has the rings!
Included in my cost is a pre-wedding visit. This is so we can meet face to face to discuss your personal needs and to go over every detail of your plan. I want to ensure that I get everything perfect for you on the day, so this is as much for my benefit as it is yours.
Here's what do I do?
Liaising with caterers and photographer on the day.
I will be your central point of contact, so you will not need to worry
Checking everything is ready in place where and when they are required
Such as, table plan display, the favours, the cake knife, the place cards and even that the Best Man has remembered the rings!
Bridal party escort
To escort the Bride and Father of the Bride from the car to the Wedding Venue door. To and from the Wedding Breakfast etc.
To escort the Bride and Groom, bride and grooms parents, to the top Table and assist them to their seats.
Photographer assistant
Assist the photographer in calling for and arranging group shots etc. if required
Meeting and Greeting
Meet and greet guests on arrival. Directing them to the seating plan and assist them locating their tables. Organising groups and making sure they know where they are supposed to be at any given time.
Announcements
Announcing the Bride and Grooms arrival at the Wedding Breakfast and arranging a receiving line.
Announcing the first Dance, the Cake Cutting, bouquet toss and to introduce the principal speeches.
I am also on hand to read speeches on behalf of anyone who has a touch of 'last minute nerves' or emotions.
Saying Grace
I'll say ‘Grace’ or other suitable pre-meal words, and to provide a ‘Loyal Toast’ if required.
Time keeper and reminders
Remind guests to sign the ‘Guest Book’ etc
Help when the little things go wrong.
I'm there to be of assistance wherever possible. I even carry an emergency 'problem solving kit' of all those small things (spare cufflinks, safety pins, umbrellas, corkscrew, sewing kit, matches, wipes, pens etc.) that can literally save the moment!
