#376 All About The Wedding Emcee

In this ep, we uncover the essential role of an Emcee and why having one solely dedicated to hosting (no DJ duties!) is a game-changer. We dish out the must-have qualities to consider when picking your Emcee superhero and spill the beans on the fantastic benefits of assembling a dream team – planner, Emcee, and DJ/Band. 
Get ready for a whirlwind of creative ideas to sprinkle ceremony magic into your reception, along with quirky micro-event suggestions to keep the party going. Plus, we explore the "Emcee or Uncle Joe" dilemma, compare Australian and American wedding traditions, and wrap it all up with insider tips on orchestrating a show-stopping grand exit. Tune in for the wedding wisdom you never knew you needed!
