Corporate and civic functions

THE BESPOKE TOASTMASTER BY ENSURING THAT PROPER PROTOCOL IS MAINTAINED ENSURES THE EVENT HAS JUST THE RIGHT LEVEL OF GRAVITAS

Civic and ceremonial functions that demand absolute conformity. Correct etiquette, adherence to precedence and the proper use of titles, honours and awards need to be observed to the letter.

These services are just as important for Business events, a company launching a new product or hosting a social evening for clients or staff.

The Chief Executive does not want to be distracted from his role of hosting the evening by trying to ensure that everything is on time and that the correct announcements are made at the right part of function

formal dinners, presentation and charity events

THERE ARE MANY WAYS THAT THE BESPOKE TOASTMASTER WILL ADD TO EVERY EVENT AND THESE CAN INCLUDE

  • Receiving guests and directing them to the main reception

  • Receiving and directing VIPs to the President’s reception or equivalent

  • Announcing the meal and helping guests locate their places

  • Announcing and leading in procession the top table

  • Saying or announcing any prayers before the meal

  • Proposing or announcing the Loyal Toast

  • Announcing toasts and speeches

  • Assisting with presentations

  • Conduction charity auctions and raffles

  • Closing the formal proceedings and conducting out the Top Table

Of course, there's no limit to the ceremonial tasks a capable Toastmaster will undertake. As an expert, they will use the correct form of words at the most appropriate time.
