Hi ladies,
I just had my wedding in July 2016.
For my wedding prep, I found reading all the reviews and comments on forums very informative and useful. I thought I'd "payback" and contribute a review on my wedding emcee - James Yang.
Ever since the start of my wedding prep, I knew I wanted to hire a professional emcee to emcee my wedding. As a marketing professional, I know how important an emcee is for an event with more than 200 attendees.
I knew James back in university (where he emceed for one of my events when I was in the students' union. He had also many years back, emceed one of the events my company organised as well as a friend's wedding. And after watching some of his emcee-ing stints on youtube, I was very sure James was the emcee we wanted.
And we were right.
Prior to the Wedding
James asked to meet up, as he wanted to ask us a few questions to get to know us and our style better.
We also had a brief discussion of the actual day timeline. Being very experienced, James also shared many tips and things which we previously did not know about. (Like it would not have occurred to us to prepare a 'march-out' song for solemnisation. For solemnisation, the bride will walk in with her dad. And the march-out is when the bride and groom walks out together, for the very first time.)
Actual Day
Unfortunately, our JP was late for our solemnisation as he was caught in a jam. Just imagine how awkward it would be, if 100 pax had to wait in a room for the JP to arrive for the solemnisation to start.
But thankfully, we had James there. Seriously a life-saver. James brilliantly entertained our guests, by 'interviewing' the groom with hilarious questions and comments.
During the banquet, James livened up the atmosphere and kept our guests breaking out in laughter. James is extremely quick-witted with a great sense of humour. He did such great a job that it was really beyond our expectations. Many friends and relatives told us that our emcee was great and they really enjoyed the wedding banquet.
If we could choose again, we would definitely still choose James as our emcee. If you are looking for a wedding emcee, do consider James. If he does not fit into your budget, do consider increasing your budget. He's well worth it
