2. It is highly recommended that your chosen Emcee/Host must have a very good relationship with your suppliers and if possible they have worked before most especially with your Coordinator, Lights & Sounds, Band, Photographer and Videographer because they will be closely working with each other during your Reception program.
3. If you are keen with their diction and pronunciation, it is strongly advisable to check their portfolio so you can have an idea with regards to their speaking skills.
