Hello everyone, we hope you have enjoyed the dishes today. Although most modern weddings had settled with Mandarin as the preferred medium to cater for the various dialect groups, the toasting remains, uniquely, Cantonese (speaks to the success of the HK film industry). The use of the cross cultural “toasting” of champagne or wine or other celebratory drinks, and the efforts to create a congratulatory scene the newly weds will not forget, is essential in such banquets (which has evolved into a celebration / marketing effort from its traditional ceremonial significance). This is unique, in that it is institutionalized into our culture for a long time. The traditional “climax” of such banquets is in the toasting. 让我们再次给 LL 掌声鼓励好不好？Another round of applause for LL! Let’s put our hands together to welcome LL! S/he would like to entitled _ to the newly weds. Today, we have a special performance by LL. Sharing their journey and special moments with you.

Let’s welcome our newly weds to come up on stage to cut the wedding cake. Otherwise, it’s also common to do it altogether during the 2nd entrance/half way through the dinner (4th to 5th dish). For serious ones, take interval steps (one foot forward, next foot bring to match to stand straight, wait, then switch).įor weddings that starts directly with cake cutting (the common case), proceed to get them on stage etc. March in: Entry of flower girl + flower boy, or anything interesting for a march in (ballet girl?), last being the newly wed couple.

Should be useful for that one off emcee job you gotta do coz you’re a close friend and the newly wed couple can’t afford to get a professional one. This is my own “notes” so it’s closer to Malaysia/Singapore weddings (specifically, very Chinese / non-religious type). I’m sure weddings elsewhere might entail different things.
