The act
A spirit of curiosity could gather around Paul Graves's stories of snowboarding's early days, bringing a different kind of feature to your wedding reception. His stories explore the sport's beginnings and challenges, including the effort to have snowboards allowed on mountain ranges, with original footage part of the presentation. MC work is also available, with the format discussed beforehand and the contribution tailored to the audience and the occasion you are planning. For a couple who share an interest in the sport, the time after dinner feels like a natural place for those stories to become the focus.

Good to know
What to expect
Paul Graves tells the story of snowboarding's early years, the triumphs and the knockbacks both, and pulls out the passion, determination and strategy it took to build a sport and then an industry around it. Exclusive original footage plays through the talk, so the audience watches the history as well as hearing it. He is available for consultation ahead of the conference to get across your organisation's themes and vision. Book him as an MC instead and he will talk the format through with you, gather the speaker bios, then meet each speaker briefly by phone before the day.
On the day
He works with a wireless headset or a lapel microphone, whichever you have. He also needs access to video and sound so the original footage can be played through the talk. AV is not part of the booking, so arrange it with your venue.
