Impeccable Service

My Wedding was on the 11th May 2024 at Hedsor House and Paul really did make our Wedding day flow seamlessly. He kept us on track with timings etc and made sure everyone was where they needed to be. Paul also went out of his way to help my Husband with his speech prior to the Wedding, as he was struggling with what to say and so nervous about it. I cannot thank Paul enough for going above and beyond in making our Wedding Day so special, right down to presenting us with a very special silver sixpence. Impeccable and professional service from start to finish. Highly recommend. Thank you, Paul!

Great service

We contacted Paul as soon as we had booked our venue and he was very responsive to emails and calls. We then met with him a month before the big day where he went through the whole day with us. We were very impressed how he had already spoken to our venue and had some suggestions as to timings which we implemented. On the day, it was great to have Paul there to ensure that everything ran smoothly and that we could just concentrate on our guests! We would recommend Paul.

Best Choice and Best Investment Ever!

Paul was absolutely incredible as a Toastmaster for our wedding at Stowe House on the 1st of May 2022. Hiring him was the best choice and investment we made as he helped to coordinate our day, thus allowing me and my husband to relax and really enjoy our day and not worry about the order of events and what was happening. We had a very international group of guests and Paul translated and delivered the majority of announcements also in Brazilian Portuguese! It was superb! The guests felt so welcome and truly enjoyed the full English Wedding experience! We had a meeting before the day and he guided us and provided suggestions for our timeline! Thank you Paul! We would give you 10 starts if we could!

Organised everything!

Paul was absolutely brilliant as our toastmaster. He made sure everything ran flawlessly and took everything in his stride. Paul was also incredibly useful in the planning process to give his insight on timings and guest management! Everyone at our wedding was talking about how much they loved him.

A wonderful addition to the perfect day!

Paul was absolutely fantastic from the moment we met him. He was the best addition to our day. We met him a few weeks before the wedding and spoke through our plans for the day and got to know each other a bit. On the day he was better than we could have ever imagined! He kept everyone organised and made sure everyone was in the right place at the right time! He was superb and a wonderful character to the day! Lots of our guests have commented how great he was! I would thoroughly recommend that anyone considering him booked him! He was incredible and we cannot thank him enough.

Worth every penny

We have now used Paul's expert services at two weddings in the family - and we recommend him very highly! Worth every penny.

Paul ensured that the bride & groom could enjoy their days and had nothing to worry about - all incidents were dealt with from catering catastrophes, lost brides shoes. He was great at organising guests to be in the right place at the right time without them even knowing they are being ushered around!

Fantastic and professional

Paul was a huge help on our wedding day and kept everything and everyone in order from start to finish. All communication was smooth and detailed up to the day which definitely helped to relieve stress. It was great not to worry about timings on the day, Paul had everything covered!

Absolutely Superb!

Paul was simply magnificent on our big day. Not intrusive yet he kept the day moving on schedule with military precision. He is warm hearted with a lovely sense of humour. Our wedding guests couldn’t stop talking about Paul and loved the way through which he coordinated our wedding photos, introduced the speeches and ‘fired everyone up’ for cake cutting and the first dance. Thank you Paul. You made our day everything we could have hoped for and more, and for that we will be eternally grateful.

Excellent!

Thank you very much for making the day run so smoothly for us. We are well aware of all the running around you did in the background for us and are proud to say that thanks to you nothing went wrong on the day. Keep up the great work! And thank you for the little surprises throughout the day, and for being instrumental in getting our guests to say a few words on the video, which, by the way, you look and sound great on. And we are very impressed at how you manage to remember everyone's names. I hope we get the opportunity to use your services again in future, although not at a wedding of course!

He made it a fairy tale wedding celebration

Wow! You truly made our day a fairy tale wedding celebration. You were remarkable and attentive to all our needs and the needs of our guests. You put everybody at ease and ran everything like clockwork. From the moment we drove up to the venue and saw you so perfectly dressed in your red tailcoat, you greeted us and it was the start of an amazing journey through our wedding celebrations. You were there every step of the way and all our guests thoroughly enjoyed you being there and what you did for us to bring everything together.

You did warn us we would be having fun during the receiving line and we had so much fun! It was particularly touching when you announced Auntie NIta. As for the introduction of the best man for his speech, it was hilarious and a great ice breaker and pulled together the speeches remarkably well. You created a truly memorable funny moment we will treasure with beaming smiles. It eased Lee into his speech perfectly :-)

We are eternally grateful to you for helping us before the wedding as well as during the wedding celebration itself. It took the pressure off us and brought our wedding celebration to life. Thank you for creating and being a part of our and our guests' memories of this wonderful day.”

Fabulous experience

From the moment we met Paul we knew he would have our best interests at heart. Our planning meeting was also very useful and he gave us lots of suggestions which helped enormously. On the day he looked after us really well and all our guests loved him.

Great attention to detail and funny too. Highly recommended.
