Below is How To Become An MC In Ghana
What Does a Wedding MC Do?
The wedding emcee is like the host of the wedding. He or she is not getting married, nor have they organized or paid for the event. Instead, they are given the job of keeping the day run on time and making sure that everyone is having a good time.
Beginners Guide to MC Duties
Exactly what sort of MC jobs can the bride or groom ask you to do? Well, you will probably be asked to:
Help gather guests for photos
Help guests find their seats
Announce the arrival of the newlyweds to the wedding reception
Announce the first dance
Introduce speakers at the reception
Explain to guests how meal service will occur
Introduce the cake cutting and bouquet throwing activities
Encourage wedding guests to sign the guestbook and use the photo booth (if these activities are available)
Tips on Being a Great MC
When it comes to being an amazing emcee, there are a few things you should consider:
Obviously, your behavior will be noticed by everyone, so limiting alcohol consumption while you are ‘on duty’ is vital. Planning is key, which is why we suggest meeting with the engaged couple before the wedding.
As well as getting a list of duties, you will also have the chance to ask questions about whether there will be a microphone for you to use or how long you need to talk for.
If you are asked to do a speech, you can prepare it in advance. If not, you will still be able to practice the announcements you are expected to perform.
Arriving early at the venue or visiting beforehand lets you see where things are and can assist guests when they arrive. You’ll also be able to introduce yourself to key people such as the DJ, bartender, housekeeping, and even all the members of the bridal party if you don’t know them already.
Being asked to be an MC is an honor.
While it can be nerve-wracking to know two people have asked you to make their wedding special, you will be fine. After all, they wouldn’t have asked you if they didn’t trust you to do an awesome job!.
