MC Hire Wollongong

A capable host keeps a Wollongong reception or work function on schedule without guests ever noticing the clock. The MC welcomes everyone, introduces speakers, calls tables to dinner, sets up the first dance or a presentation, and fills the gap when the kitchen or a speaker runs late.

Both MCs on this page also play music, which saves a second booking and a handover between acts. Ultimate DJs offer hosting as an add-on to their DJ packages from $800, so the person on the microphone is also running the dance floor. Divine Productions is Anthony Hughes, who sings and plays guitar during the ceremony and then hosts and DJs the reception, in packages from $2,200 that come with sound, microphones and lighting. Both travel to every Wollongong region, from Northern Wollongong to Kiama & Gerringong.

Before the day, give your MC:

• A running sheet with times for entrances, speeches, meals and the cake
• How to pronounce every name they'll say aloud
• The order of speakers and roughly how long each plans to talk
• A contact at the venue for when timing changes on the night
