Wedding MCs: what couples ask

Practical answers about pricing, timing and what to confirm before you book.

What does a wedding MC actually do?

They run the reception so you do not have to: welcoming guests, introducing the two of you, keeping the speeches and formalities on time, and letting the room know what happens next, without ever making the night about themselves.

Should a friend MC instead?

A friend brings the personal touch; a professional brings the timing and the calm. Some couples book a professional to handle the running order and let a friend give the warm-up.

MC, or a DJ who also hosts?

Many DJs offer MC duties, which keeps the music and the announcements in one pair of hands. A dedicated MC suits a wedding with a lot of speeches or a bigger production.
