I was delighted to have received this lovely review from Jodie and Barry who were married on 26 May 2023 at Fennes in Essex. I was booked as Wedding Toastmaster, Coordination and Compere.
‘ I can honestly say that Jonathan made one hell of an impact on our wedding day. From the very beginning he was extremely efficient in communications, really approachable and such a down to earth guy!! We never had a doubt but with each meeting our confidence in him grew and come our wedding day, we knew that we would be in great hands!!
Our guests loved him and he was so on the ball all of the time, was able to steer our guests to where and when they needed to be somewhere, gave plenty of laughs and gave us ideas/input for things we hadn’t even thought about. Would highly recommend him!! Top man!! Excellent toastmaster!! Damn right lovely man!!!’
Special Review from bride and groom who were married on 02 October 2021 at Prince Regent Hotel in Chigwell in Essex and booked my Professional services as Toastmaster, Coordination and Compere. This review sums my services up 100 percent.
Dear Jonathan,
On behalf of my husband and myself, I want to express how pleased we were with Jonathan Watermans services, Jonathan went above and beyond for us, I was completely stressed out and he took all the stress away ensuring that our wedding day went smoothly. Jonathan’s professionalism showed and I do not know what we would have done without him. Jonathan had scheduled our wedding day timings, he communicated with all the vendors, and he made all the announcements at our wedding, he was on hand to help with speeches if needed and even added some special touches to our day which we would not have thought about, for example, The Card Ceremony and lighting of candles to unite the family. Our day was truly a day to remember, and the extra touches made the day even more special. We would like to express our appreciation for everything that Jonathan had done for us, and we recommend Jonathan and his services to everyone who needs a wedding MC. Thank you so much Jonathan for everything.
Kind Regards
Christina & Okine
Review another of my satisfied clients
Dear Jonathan,
A year has passed and we are reminiscing on fond memories of our beautiful wedding day. Just opened our cards from the 'card ceremony' which was your idea!
It was lovely to know that it was just as important for you (as it was for us) for our day to run as smoothly as possible. Your expert opinion on tailoring a schedule for our particular wedding was invaluable to the success and memory of our day!
Your prompt responses to queries & attention to detail were hugely reassuring throughout the whole planning process - exactly what a bride & groom needs.. and more!
Thank you for your help in co-ordinating a realistic yet relaxed schedule - including arrival of flowers, opening up of church, photographs, catering, decor, speeches and first dance. The day itself went like clockwork due to your professionalism & expertise.
You were welcoming and personable to our guests - many of whom were quick to comment on our " Brilliant Coordinator & Toastmaster" and one described as "the most gifted of Wedding MCs"! A grand example for any Wedding Professional and the industry as a whole.
Kind Regards
Mr & Mrs Allen, 3rd June 2016

Napkin Game - Guests will pass the napkin around there table, i will beef up the atmosphere and get them it do it faster and faster, and then I will tell them to stop, and the person holding the Napkin, will won a prize ( maybe a box of ferrero rocher )
Best Mans Sweep Stake - I will go round to the guests and ask them if they want to take a bet on how long , the best mans speech will take, it is 5 pounds per person to enter, i will then have all the names written down, I will then time on my phone, and the person closest to the time taken, will receive the money. ( I can do this for Grooms, Father of bride speech or any other )
I will also go around to family and guests throughout the day with my small video cam, and ask for congratulations and words of wisdom, and I will send you these snippets.
Clients purchasing a Polaroid or Instant Camera with Film for around 40 Photos and they provide for Guest Book and Glue Sticks, I will go around the dinner tables and drinks reception and take photos..
I love the Shoe Ceremony, this is when I ask the bride and groom, either on their special day or prior, to write a message to each other on the back of there shoes, and I will read them out on the day, or they can read them to each other...... these shoes will be kept for the rest of their lives, so it is always lovely to look back on.
I also like the very special ' Bride and Groom Game ' This is where 10 questions are compiled by myself, I will then ask the guests starting with the first question, i will then proceed to ask the guests the questions, and after each question, they will put hands on there heads for bride or hands on the backsides for groom. I will then ask the bride and groom the question, and they will decide unanimously between them, if the answer is ' bride ' or ' groom ' and then the winners stay standing and losers are seated, we keep on doing this until we get a winner, and the bride and groom will present the winner with something funny.. as that person knows about the bride and groom intimately. If there are several winners, then everyone will just give them a round of applause, or even the winner can just receive a round of applause. If we do not have a Winner, the rest will be decided by the 10p Game ( Heads and Tails )
The First Dance scoring is brilliant, This is where the bride and groom have there first dance and i then ask 5 volunteers, to write on the paper provided, marks out of 10, at the end of the dance, they then reveal there marks, and ask them why they awarded them for example 8 out of 10.
The Dance Offs are always fun between Bride and Groom or Best Man Vs Bridesmaids or Men Vs Ladies or could be anyone
The Bingo Game is always a winner, could you be the winner of a Line, 2 Lines or even the Full House.
The Lengthy Speech Game is interactive - Small cards are Placed on each table setting , prior to the speeches Occurring. Then just before speeches start, each guest will guess how long the speeches will take and will write down how many minutes on there card. Then after speeches, I will tell guests, the amount of time the speeches took, and the person guessed the exact time or closest to, will receive a cuddle from the bride or groom .......maybe even a little gift.... no cheating !!
Ten Fun Facts Ceremony
This is a great one, this is where I ask friends and family, some funny facts about the Bride and Groom, and I read them out. Fun facts cards will be placed in front of each guest on there tables , and they can fill out the cards with there names and I will read them out. Or you can do it per table.
I also love the Drinks Game .. 5 Alcoholic drinks are placed next to the Bride and 5 drinks Next to the Groom, with lots of audience noise, the winner will be the person, who can drink them the fastest, lots of fun. This can also be adapted as two teams of 5 lead by the bride and groom and the winning team will receive a prize. Or we could do the Groom Vs Best Man / Made of Honour VS Bride / Guest from Brides Side VS Guest from Grooms Side with 3 Drinks, and then the Winner will have a Dance Off with the Bride or Groom, they can choose. The Can also work at Special Event - Director Vs Employee / Dept Head Vs Subordinate / 1 Person in 1 Department VS another.
I love the superb Picture Scavenger Hunt
Send your guests on a Mobile phone scavenger hunt by creating a list of 10 wedding moments for them to capture with their phones, like:
a couple kissing
someone taking a shot
a delicious dessert
a group selfie
flowers
someone crying
etc.
Not only does this give your guests a fun activity, you'll end up with even more pictures at the end of the day. Bonus tip: turn it into a contest where you'll vote for the 3 x best photos overall after the wedding, they guests may even receive a little gift !. This way, your guests will go for quality photos, not just quantity, and you'll end up with better snaps. You can also instruct guests who are playing to use your wedding hashtag , such as #johnandmichellewedding and post the photos on social media, such as Instagram and Facebook to easily catalog all the fun pictures.
Special Mannequin Challenge with sweets
This is so much fun. I will get everyone onto the dance floor standing still with there hands held out, I will then go around and try to distract people, and if they are undistracted and do not move, I will put a sweet in there hands.
The Bottle or Serviette Game is always a lot of fun, everyone is asked to stand, and every table has an empty bottle or serviette, this is then passed from person and person, and when i ask people to stop, the person holding the serviette or bottle on each table is a finalist, all the finalists then come to the front, and then the bottle or serviette is passed from person to person and then winner will receive a gift from the bride or groom. ( Always great with music)
The Chair Game is always lots of fun, this is where we ask for 7 volunteers and there are 6 chairs laid out, and i may ask the volunteers maybe to fetch a lighter first of all, and the first people to fetch a lighter and sit on the chairs are still in and the other person who has not been fast enough is out, and I keep doing this with different things, such as Pen, Glass and more, until we get a winner, the bride and groom may want to give a prize to the winner.
Open Forum on Speeches - It is always fun during the drinks reception or just after or even before main speeches to do a little 15 to 20 minute session. It is always lovely to hear from guests.
In relation to Events, I have lots of ideas, that will enhance your event, and make it that much more memorable.
