The Toastmaster
The Toastmaster in his red tailcoat is a unique English tradition that has adapted and is as relevant today as when it all first started in the eighteenth century. A Toastmaster adds a certain style, distinction and image to any formal or informal ceremony, event or celebration. Today's Toastmaster offers the traditional services of greeting and announcing guests and introducing speeches and toasts, but combines these with the roles of advisor, organiser, presenter, communicator and diplomat. His duties relieve the host of worry and stress, and include overseeing the smooth running of the event.
Alan Riddick will be pleased to advise on the correct procedure in accordance with the accepted tradition, protocol, etiquette and social order, but of course the Host's specific wishes prevail. Alan will act as a Master of Ceremonies in a formal or informal manner as required, and co-ordinate the event on the day so that Host and guests may relax and enjoy it, knowing that the agreed timings and formalities will be observed.
and humour where appropriate, to your event.
