Top Tips & Recommended Suppliers
Here are my top 5 tips for engaging a toastmaster or master of ceremonies
1. Always Meet Them
It's really important to get to know your Toastmaster before you choose to work with them. They'll play a vital role in making your special day go off without a hitch, so it's essential that you feel confident and trust them completely. Take the time to chat with them and see if their personality and style match the vibe you want for your celebration. A good professional will not only guide you on traditions and etiquette but will also be genuinely interested in listening to your ideas and adapting to your needs. After all, this is your big day, and it should reflect your unique vision!
2. Appearance is Key
Looks aren't deceiving! It’s really important that your Toastmaster is not only well-groomed but also dressed to impress in their incredible livery. Why not take a little time to browse through the photos and social media? It’ll give you a lovely sense of how they present themselves. If they don’t seem to pay attention to their own appearance, it might make you wonder about their ability to keep everything running smoothly on your special day. After all, those little details matter!
3. They Aren't a Guest
4. Its All in the Package
Remember, Your Toastmaster is a key supplier. A good Toastmaster understands this responsibility and will act professionally. For instance, you can expect them to avoid alcoholic drinks, and they'll typically steer clear of the canapés or buffet. When it comes to photos, your Toastmaster won’t join in the group shots unless you invite them to. That said, they might like to grab a quick photo with you for their portfolio or website, but only with your permission. It’s all about keeping the focus on your special day while ensuring everything runs smoothly!
When you’re considering a venue that includes a Toastmaster, it’s a good idea to confirm that you’ll be getting a professionally trained, ‘red-coated’ Toastmaster. You see, some venues might just have a staff member stepping in for this special role, and that’s not quite the same experience. And here’s a little tip for you: if, after meeting your venue’s Toastmaster, you feel they aren’t the perfect match for your big day, don’t hesitate to let them know you’d prefer someone else. It’s all about ensuring your celebration feels right for you!
5. Do Your Research
It's essential to do your research, particularly regarding their membership in a professional body, which signifies thier commitment to professional standards but also ensures they possess the skills, knowledge & training necessary to facilitate your special day seamlessly. Before making your choice, take the time to verify their credentials and read reviews; it will make all the difference in creating an unforgettable celebration.
