Now that you’ve went through all the top emcees, here are some tips on how to pick the one for your wedding:
Most emcees upload video clips of their emcees during real events. Take a peek to have a better idea of what they’d be like on the actual day.
Email the few emcee companies you’ve shortlisted for an actual quotation. In that way, you can eliminate those that are way out of your budget.
Chemistry between the emcee and the couple is the most important. Trust your instincts because the one who makes you feel the most comfortable is most likely the best choice for your wedding!
