Some venues will offer to provide a Toastmaster for your big day. However, be aware that this person is typically not a dedicated professional Toastmaster, but rather a member of the venue’s staff who will be juggling multiple responsibilities throughout your event.

From calling guests into the wedding breakfast, to announcing your big entrance with the perfect build-up, to ensuring the cake-cutting is picture-perfect, he makes sure every part of your celebration feels seamless and special.

With a passion for weddings and a calm, reassuring presence, Brody is more than a Toastmaster; he’s your host and an essential helping hand throughout the day. His goal is always the same - to make your wedding unforgettable for you and your guests.

Everyone needs a brody!

Where do I even start?
EVERYONE NEEDS A BRODY!!!

Brody is quite frankly one of the most magnificent people we’ve met & his lovely Wife Steff is also absolutely fantastic.

When I met Brody I could just sense his brilliant personality and his love for weddings and making couples smile. Brody absolutely convinced me that we needed him on our wedding day by just being himself, no sales pitch, no handouts, just being himself.

Firstly, the consultation call that we had was fabulous. My (now) husband got off the call, turned to me and said ‘I am so happy we’ve got Brody’. He made us feel at ease, talked us through everything, explained what he would be doing and any concerns that we had he talked them through with us, it was like a little pre wedding counselling session which I so very much needed at that point in the planning process!

On the day, I can’t even put into words how amazing Brody was. He turned up, smile on his face, ready and raring to go. He chatted with the staff at the venue, liaised and worked with them seamlessly and made sure that absolutely everything ran smoothly. We got married at a Church and then went back to our venue but when we arrived Brody had our guests all lined up ready for the confetti shot!
He was chatting with guests, laughing and joking. Directing them to the toilets and answering any questions they had about the order of the day. He also made sure that me and my husband had a drink!!! And I cannot tell you how important that part is! I didn’t have to worry about a thing and that in itself is worth its weight in gold!

I haven’t even got to the actual announcements he made yet but I could go on!!

Brody’s announcements were amazing, he was so engaging with the guests, announced us into our wedding breakfast (also checked how we wanted to be announced which was lovely), introduced the speeches, EVERYTHING!

We can’t thank him enough for everything he did for us on our day and we are so grateful for him and Steff.
Brody has this aura about him that is infectious and choosing him for your wedding day is something that you 1 million percent would not regret!!

Thank you X

Body Swain - Toastmaster Extraordinaire!!!

From day one Brody has been an exceptional Toastmaster who became an integral part of our wedding. He simply brings an energy and professionalism that is unmatched to the role. From early zoom calls to find out more about us and what we were like as a couple, finding out about what we wanted from the wedding day itself, and very importantly for me checking the speech of a very nervous groom to make sure it was up to scratch!

The care and concern Brody took on the day for me and my wife was truly incredible and I cant thank him enough. He was also excellent with organising family members for photos as well as greeting guests and keeping them informed. As a special mention Brody was particularly helpful for a relative of ours who has some mobility issues and was kind and courteous with them.

He is an excellent person to get involved if you want your wedding day to be an enjoyable experience and to go smoothly and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Master Toastmaster

Words cannot say how happy and impressed we were with Brody. From the get go, Brody was so attentive and supported us with several calls before the wedding, and he even visited the venue himself. On the day itself he was again very supportive and of course was an amazing toastmaster, checking in with us throughout the day to ensure everything went perfect. The announcements he did were so impressive and everyone from the wedding complimented him. He even at one point saved my nanny when the bar didn’t sell Coca Cola and he provided her with a can from his own supply in the car! Amazing, can’t recommend highly enough. Thank you so much Brody for supporting us through the best day of our lives. Love the Foster’s❤️

Brody is awesome!

We came across Brody on the hitched app and he contacted us to arrange a zoom call. We clicked with him straight away and in the run up to the wedding he worked with us to understand what we needed from a Toastmaster. On the day his help was invaluable. He did not stop all day, greeting guests, announcing events and checking in with us regularly. He created a fun and relaxed atmosphere for all our guests. You will not regret hiring Brody! ❤️❤️

Everyone needs a Brody!!

From start to finish, nothing was ever too much for Brody. We had a Zoom call due to us living in the South but getting married in the Midlands. Brody was super helpful and clear and didn't make us feel pressured at all. He was very reassuring and answered any questions we had. Brody then walked around our venue in February to meet some of the family and the suppliers and get to know the venue and then we met him one final time prior to getting married to go through the plan of the day. Brody was so supportive throughout everything and was very reassuring at our final meeting when the nerves were starting to kick in! On the wedding day, Brody was super smart, met the guests as they arrived, supported my husband to see the registrars and then waited for me at the bottom of the stairs to see the registrars before going through the plan for the ceremony. He announced us into the ceremony and out again once we were married, helped co-ordinate guests for confetti shot and for photos afterwards, helped keep us hydrated and was just brilliant. He was super clear and charismatic. He even got emotional at my husband’s speech which just shows how caring and fab he is. He was brilliant throughout the whole day and even carried my water around with him whilst we were having photos as my gums kept drying out due to the wind of storm Amy. I really feel like Brody is so professional, but so charismatic that he could be your friend. The friends and family absolutely adored him too, including my 4 year old nephew. Thank you for being part of our special day, Brody. It wouldn’t have been the same without you! You are sunshine in human form, always smiling, joking and laughing that is infectious.

You definitely will not regret spending your money on Brody!!

Above and Beyond Expectations!

I couldn’t imagine my wedding without Brody. From planning to the big day he went above and beyond to help us ensure our day ran smoothly. From working with ministers, photographers venue staff etc to keeping an eye on us on the day so we wanted for nothing, he was exceptional at his job.

All announcements were perfect and guests knew exactly what they were doing. To add to that he has a fabulous personality and really lights up a room , everybody loved him.

I would highly recommend Brody to anybody who wants to bring a little extra flare to their event. I guarantee that you will be well looked after and will thoroughly enjoy the experience of having Brody as your toastmaster.

Just go and book him now….

To say this man made a significant and deeply meaningful impact on our wedding would be the understatement of the century.

Brody’s charisma, energy, warmth and character gave our entire day that extra sparkle. From the onset, Brody helped to ensure all our guests were welcomed, comfortable and above all, share in the passion of our day.

Some would say it may be a lot having a toastmaster working alongside photographers, wedding managers and other people who help to ensure the day goes without a hiccup. We can say with absolute certainty, that is wrong. A toastmaster helps to bring the energy, individuality, and a flare of glamorous tradition. Brody embodies the true spirit of a toastmaster.

During all parts of our day, he was a compliment to our photographer, and wedding manager to allow the seamless transitions between ceremony, group photos, wedding breakfast, and the evening celebrations. The smooth running of the day really does make all the difference and Brody played a key role in this.

He wasn’t simply there in his toastmaster capacity but he also was a shoulder to cry on (happy tears of course!). His words of advice and wisdom were invaluable, and we valued his heartfelt counsel throughout our day. Without him, the nerves would have impacted our ceremony and who knows how things would have gone. He wasn’t just a toastmaster to us, he was a friend.

We are so glad that we took the decision to have Brody for our special day. The memories we both now hold and what we will take forward for the rest of our lives, were helped made possible by him.

A truly sincere and lovely gentleman, who brought that ‘je ne sais quoi’ to our day. Brody, thank you.

Exceptional Service!❤️

From the moment we booked, Brody was fantastic, with communication always quick to respond whether by email, WhatsApp, or phone.

Meeting up a month before the wedding, we went through all the plans together and his suggestions were spot on.

On the big day, Brody kept everything running perfectly, letting us relax and enjoy time with our guests. We'd recommend him in a heartbeat!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Wedding Toastmaster

Brody was the perfect Toastmaster for Paul & I and we could not have asked for more!

From the moment that we enquired about booking Brody as our Toastmaster, we found him to be extremely friendly and supportive.  

He was also on hand to offer his expert advice leading up to the wedding.

All of our guests loved him and he made sure that everything ran smoothly, which meant we could just relax and enjoy our special day.  

Thanks again Brody x
