[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 151318, member: 179"] Canadians typically (not always) have a Master of Cermony that is related in some sort to do all the announcements. They do the grand entrance, toasts, recognizing family, dismiss people for the buffet, cake cutting, tell stories, etc. This is usually the DJ's job, but it's a tradition for them. Last night it was the former groom that was the best man at the new groom's wedding. He will pass this down to the next groom. I would say 90% of the time this is the format for a Canadian wedding reception. It's actually a wonderful tradition, but teaching someone how to use a wireless mic can be a pain. They either hold it 9 feet from their mouth, or 1 cm from their mouth and scream. The other thing I ALWAYS tell them is that they can walk anywhere in the room, but not directly in front of a speaker as you get feedback. Where do they gravitate? [B]RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE GOSH DARN SPEAKER. [/B] :biting: Don't get me started on an Asian immigrant reception who has a sponsor. Whole new story. Abbey [/QUOTE]
