Emcee services
I recently emcee-ed for a friend's wedding at Marina Bay Sands (MBS). It is my first time attending a wedding function at MBS, and it was a rather cool experience.
I have heard stories from people who have been to MBS for wedding functions and corporate events, they have warned that MBS is just a location, while their food sucks.
Well, this wedding function, the food is awesome!
Quality-wise, they have hit it spot on.
Quantity-wise, well, let's say nice things come in little sizes. They could have increased the quantity of food, then it will be awesome! I left the wedding function feeling just a tad hungry still. My wife, who is normally easily satiable with a small appetite, also remarked that she still feels peckish, and hungry.
Back to the topic of this post, in the midst of wedding preparations and planning arrangements, there are a thousand and one things that scream out and require your immediate attention. I've been through that.
from the booking of venues, the finalisation and discussions on the decor and theme of the wedding function and layout, to the guest list, down to the seating arrangement (trust me, this is important, there are unseen politics going on in the relatives segment, this uncle can't sit with this uncle, this auntie prefers to sit with who and who, etc, even down to the vegetarian, families with kids and requiring baby seats etc). You do your best to fit everyone who know and is happy to sit with each other in tables of 10, hopefully. And pray that everyone can fit in and be seated.
Besides such events, you have to worry about inviting "brothers" and "sisters" to the gatecrashing. the actual solemisation ceremony, should you do it at the Registry of Marriage (ROM) itself, or should you invite a Justice of Peace (JP) to your location of choice? Well, you got to worry about car park coupons, bottles of wine etc, and a dozen of other things that require your immediate attention and decision there and then.
Oh, and then during the actual dinner event itself. There is a need to have emcees to guide the process. The emcees is supposed to coordinate the audio-visual, the playing of music, of slides, of the animation to the photo montage of childhood pictures.
Thing is, there are people out there (myself included), who would absolutely love to help out in such events. So that this can and will free up you and your friends' time in the event itself so you all can have a really good time.
Outsource/delegate out such tasks.
I, for one, has emcee-ed multiple times, I think about 15 weddings so far. And I absolutely love to emcee for weddings. Because I think it is a happy event, and it is a romantic event, and I have been through that, and I want to take this burden off the shoulders of the bride and groom so they have one less thing to worry about.
Well, are there anyone out there who have experience, am competent, and would love to do:
1. emceeing
2. hosting
3. event planning
4. event coordination
5. F&b coordinator
etc etc for wedding functions?
I bet there are...
