To MC or not to MC?<\/p>\n

So, you\u2019re planning your wedding. YAY YOU!<\/p>\n

One of the biggest decisions you have to make is whether or not to have someone MC your wedding.<\/p>\n

No…a different MC (come on that joke was just WAITING to be used).<\/p>\n

We\u2019re talking about a Master of Ceremonies aka MC aka Mega Cool aka who wouldn\u2019t want to be called a MASTER OF CEREMONIES amiright?!<\/p>\n

An MC typically \u2018runs\u2019 the wedding reception. They are the person at the front with the mic, introducing the wedding party, providing information, and announcing the speeches. They know what time the wedding photos should finish, they know when to kick off the dancing, they know what time the cake is due to be cut, and they know when the venue might start tidying up and pushing people out. All very important times of the event. And reality is, if you don\u2019t have an MC to run the reception, who will? Aunt Marilyn?<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s not all \u2018drill sergeant with a mission\u2019 here. An MC gets to have fun and helps set the tone for the guests. They keep your wedding reception running smoothly and on time, and guests feel like someone is in the driver’s seat. \u2018Cos we all know you two newlyweds will be too busy smooching and being all lovey eyes to actually worry about what time it is.<\/p>\n

Now, an MC can take many forms. They can be a close friend or family member (ideally someone who really likes you and will make a good effort) or you can hire a profesh (that\u2019s me, hi!).<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s look at the facts. No MC = a lack of order to the reception. When are the speeches? Where is the bride? Who knows! Yes MC = a smoothly run and awesome event, where your guests are happy and everybody leaves saying \u201cWow what an amazing wedding, didn\u2019t she look gorgeous, I must get the number of her MC.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you want to talk more MC (Hammer OR other), give me a call!<\/p>\n
