What can a Toastmaster do for you at your wedding?
- Liaise with your Banqueting or Catering Manager before you arrive, making sure everything is in place.
- Liaise with and co-ordinate the catering team, photographer, video operator, entertainers and DJ. These groups alone can add up to 10 or more people who all want to run the show; do their thing their way, and you will want someone to keep a tight control here.
- Organise the receiving line and announce guests.
- Announce or say, Grace.
- Assist the photographer in gathering groups together.
- Direct the speeches and in some cases, even write a speech.
- Deal with noisy or boisterous children (and some grown-ups too).
- Declare that the party or cake cutting ceremony is about to begin. Keep a watch on guests flouting any smoking restrictions, promote the safety rules for younger children i.e. waterways, staircases or roads near the gardens.
