“Paul was simply magnificent on our big day. Not intrusive yet he kept the day moving on schedule with military precision. He is warm hearted with a lovely sense of humour. Our wedding guests couldn’t stop talking about Paul and loved the way through which he coordinated our wedding photos, introduced the speeches and ‘fired everyone up’ for cake cutting and the first dance. Thank you Paul. You made our day everything we could have hoped for, and more! We will be eternally grateful.”

“Thank you for being an amazing host at our open day event. ”

“We looked into having a master of ceremonies as our best man admitted to being extremely nervous and we felt with 60 plus guests that we would need a little guidance. With this in mind we spoke to our wedding venue and they recommended Michael to us. We sent a general enquiry to Michael via email one evening and we're surprised to receive a response straight away. The majority of our other suppliers took at least a few days to come back to us. After discussing things further via telephone we booked straight away as we couldn't believe the value for money.

Leading up to our wedding Michael was extremely helpful and provided a lot of advice on his services and how our day could run. His professional and calming attitude gave us confidence that our wedding day would go without a hitch. On the morning itself he ensured everything was going to plan so that our ceremony was on time. He helped the groom, best man, ushers and the two mothers with their flowers, welcomed our guests, showed guests to seats, calmed the groom who kept crying, took the bride’s mother to her seat at the start of the ceremony (this was a great touch, I haven't seen a toast master do this previously) and assisted me when I was navigating a long staircase after the 5 bridesmaids abandoned me! After our ceremony Michael ensured everything went to plan. He ensured that our guests and suppliers were where they needed to be; he shadowed me and helped whenever possible with my dress, flowers, umbrella etc. He also kept the photographer in check which must have been a task in itself as he wanted to get plenty of photographs when we should have been elsewhere. The speeches - well where do I start! Michael introduced us to our wedding breakfast to a standing ovation which made us both cry! Throughout the speeches we surprised our guests with Sabrage.

“Joe compered our Awards ceremony in October. He was warm, compassionate and funny. My staff team loved him. I found Joe to be professional from the onset and he clearly understood the brief. Highly recommended Thanks Joe. ”

“Mark Jones was excellent as MC [at The Belfry]; he had the room laughing most of the evening and kept the whole event running to time. He did everything we requested of him and more, so much so we would like to book him again for our event next year; we have been running this event for over 30 years using various people as MC, they all assured me Mark was the best ever.”
