How far in advance should I book?
For a wedding, most couples book six to twelve months ahead, because Saturdays in the peak months go first. Corporate dinner and dance season runs at the end and start of the year and those dates go early too. If your date is close, message anyway. Sometimes it is free.
Do you host in both English and Mandarin?
Yes. I host bilingually in English and Mandarin and switch live depending on who is in the room, rather than repeating every line twice. Tell me the mix of guests and which language should lead, and the script is written that way.
What does an emcee cost in Singapore?
It depends on the format, the length and how much preparation the programme needs. A wedding banquet, a full day conference and a two hour dinner and dance are different pieces of work. Send me the date and the outline and I will quote for the actual event rather than give you a range that means nothing.
Do you write the script and the run sheet?
Yes, together with you and your planner or banquet manager. Names, titles and pronunciations are checked before the day, and the timeline is built so the kitchen, the AV team and the programme all agree.
Do you travel for events outside Singapore?
Yes. I have hosted events overseas as well as in Singapore. Travel and accommodation are quoted separately and agreed before anything is confirmed.
Can you host virtual or hybrid events?
Yes. Live streamed, green screen and hybrid formats, where there is a room in front of you and an audience at home at the same time. Both need hosting, and they need it differently.
What happens if you fall ill on the day?
I have never missed an event, but the honest answer is that I keep a small group of emcees I trust and would arrange a replacement at my own cost, fully briefed with your run sheet and script, rather than leave you without a host.
