Now that we are home and reality resumes we just wanted to send a message of thanks.
From our first point of contact with you we were totally blown away by your enthusiasm, knowledge, kindness and general personality. Being a complete control freak (Amy !) I have never felt so comfortable letting someone have the reins. I had complete faith that you would make our day run so smoothly and you did not disappoint. You were there every step of the way and completely made our day run smoothly and that was important to us.
We have had so many comments on how fantastic and approachable you are, everyone has been so impressed.
Thank you again, we will remember you fondly..
Amy and Tom.

Weddings
Take the worry out of your special day, every Bride and Bridegroom want their Wedding Day to be memorable from beginning to end. A lot of thought and preparation will have gone into the planning of this day, the Vicar or Registrar and venue will take priority, but who will ensure the reception runs smoothly? The answer is the Professional Toastmaster, he can supervise the greeting of the guests and the receiving line, announce the Bride and From, help with speeches, present the toasts, the cutting of the cake and much more. This leaves the Bridal couple, parents and best man to relax and enjoy the reception with their family and friends. Well before the special day a meeting will take place with the Bridal couple and the parents. Ensuring that all those concerned will be satisfied that the event will flow apparently effortlessly to a successful conclusion.Testimonials
Here are some of the kind words that have been sent to me over the years.

Gemma and Mark Deane, Rhinefield House 27th July 2018
I just wanted to take the time ( now we have recovered from wedding and honeymoon) to say a huge thank you for everything you did for us at Rhinefield House on the 27th July
My guests have all commented on how amazing you were, and how you were critical in helping us create the relaxed atmosphere we wanted for our guests, and yet you still made everything run smoothly. I honestly am grateful you were part of our day. I knew from the moment you arrived in the morning of the wedding day that I could breathe a sigh of relief and it would all be OK, and from start to finish I couldn't wished for the day to go any better.
You made us feel so comfortable and safe and we genuinely loved having you there to join our celebrations.
kind regards
Gemma and Mark

Mike was fantastic, from the pre-wedding meeting, through to ensuring our day ran smoothly, We both felt very relaxed with Mike taking the lead, there was so much to do and it all fell into place.

We just wanted to thank you Sooooo much for the most incredible day EVER..on Saturday. We all had the best time, and everyone was saying how perfect it was. I guess it boils down to all the professionals that made the day, it was especially you. Michael you truly are something else, without you we generally believe our day would not have gone so smoothly as it did. You are an absolute master of ceremonies and we cannot thank you enough for being such an important part of our day.
Once again many thanks Marie and Adi

We want to thank you for making our day run so smoothly. Both Tom and I were so unbelievably impressed with how seamlessly you managed our day from start to finish, and how at ease you made us both feel. Taking all the stress out of what could have been a very stressful occasion.

Thanks once again Rebecca and Tom
