Choosing the Right MC

A good MC keeps the night moving: welcoming guests, introducing speeches, calling people to dinner and handing over to the dance floor at the right moment. The MCs here are DJs as well, so one booking covers both the microphone and the music.

That matters most at functions with a lot of formalities, such as a wedding reception, a milestone birthday or an end-of-year presentation night.

Before you book an MC, settle:

The run sheet, including when food is served and who is speaking.
How formal or relaxed you want the tone to be.
How to pronounce names, especially family members and guests of honour.
Announcements about getting home, such as when the coach leaves at the end of the night.
What happens if speeches run long or a course is late from the kitchen.

Both cover every region, the Huon Valley and the Coal River Valley included. For a work function in a hotel ballroom or event centre, ask whether the venue's own microphone and sound system can be used. See DJ hire and corporate event planning for more.

Announcing the couple's entrance and the bridal party.
Introducing each speech and keeping toasts to time.
Calling the cake cutting, first dance and farewell.

MC duties at a work function

Welcoming guests and covering housekeeping such as exits and transport home.
Introducing speakers and calling presentations in order.
Filling gaps if a speaker is late or AV fails.
Moving the room from formalities to dancing.

Getting the most from your MC

Meet or call beforehand so they know the key people.
Give them a printed run sheet and one contact person on the night.
Tell them any family or workplace sensitivities to steer around.

Common Questions About Booking an MC

Why hire a DJ who also MCs?

One person handles music and formalities, so timing between speeches and dancing stays smooth and you pay one supplier.

Can an MC host a presentation night in a city hotel?

Yes, both MCs here take work functions. Ask whether they will use the venue's sound system or their own.

What does an MC need from us before a wedding?

The run sheet, the names of speakers and how to pronounce them, and any announcements about transport home.

Will an MC travel to a Huon Valley reception?

Both MCs listed cover the Huon Valley. Confirm any travel charge in the quote.

How do we keep wedding speeches to time?

Give the MC a time for each speech and let them signal speakers when it is time to wrap up.
