Hi Jonathan,

Thank you so much ! We honestly loved every minute of it and we are so pleased you were there to help us right from the pre wedding organisation, to our chuppah and to our last dance. It couldn’t have gone any smoother and we really appreciate it.

We loved the additional extras like the cake cutting / feeding each other and the funny memories that you read out. You were also brilliant gathering people and introducing all of the toasts and speeches. Thanks again for helping to create such lovely memories.

Very special review from the Parents of Thomas Berns who had his Bar Mitzvah on 05 March 2022 at Theydon Bois Village Hall in Essex. I was booked as Toastmaster and Coordination.

We decided to hire a toastmaster as we wanted to ensure our function ran smoothly. Jonathan was professional from start to finish and went through every detail with us, advising where necessary. He made sure all our guests knew where they should be throughout the evening. Several of our guests commented on how Jonathan entertained them with his jovial manner and how he made them all feel valued.

This review below is from the Diamond Rock in Santorini in Greece, I thanked them for excellent teamwork and gracious hospitality at a destination wedding, where clients booked me as Wedding Toastmaster, Celebrant/ Officiant, Compere/ Games, Coordination and MC. They send me this lovely letter in reply.

‘Jonathan is absolutely excellent at what he does! He helped our team out so much and made sure the day ran on time and as smoothly as possible. Having Jonathan on-site during the Wedding made such a huge difference and his passion and enthusiasm shines through making it the best day possible for the Bride and Groom. We look forward to hopefully working with Jonathan more in the future, but I personally highly recommend’

Best Wishes,
Jess

Very Special Review from Top Wales Venue ' Celtic Manor '

Jonathan was hired by the Bride & Groom to act as a toastmaster and co-coordinator for their wedding celebration on the 21st, April 2019. Throughout the entire day Jonathan worked well and assisted the Celtic Manor team to deliver a 5* experience to each guest who attended the wedding. Jonathan communicated well with the team and with the main point of contacts within the wedding party. During the procession at the front of the hotel he interacted well with the guests to bring the atmosphere within the procession ‘alive’. It was great to have him there as a contact and to help with the main points of the day to make service smooth and to enhance the guest experience. We look forward to working with him in the future!

Event: Exotic Wedding Planning Conference
Venue: Fairmont Rey Juan Carlos 1, Barcelona, Spain
Date: 09/10 November 2016

I was delighted to have been asked to both Coordinate and to Host and Chair this very prestigious conference. I was involved in making sure all would be run perfectly, all speakers knew what they were doing and ensuring they were wired up to speak, I organised a special panel discussion for the delegates, as well as these points, I generally oversaw and troubleshooted any other problems that may have occured. As a result of my hard work, here are some of the comments in which I received:-

From:- Exito ( The Organizers )

I would like to thank you and appreciate for the lengths you went to support in hosting the Wedding Planning Conference in Barcelona on 10 -11 November 2016.

Due to our absence we were unable to do a lot of things we had planned for at the event for the delegates, sponsors, jury as well as the speakers including you. I am glad to hear of the way the you managed to handle everything around you starting from the agenda to speakers to sponsors and chairing the overall show.

One thing unanimous in the feedbacks we have received thus far is about how you took the responsibility in keeping everyone in the same page at a very short notice. It was certainly a display of masterclass skillset in running such a high profiled show organized by Exito. I agree that the event would not have looked the way it did without your support at the event and believe you will continue to support.

From:- Kylie Carlson ( UK Wedding Academy )

" Jonathan did an amazing job pulling it all together and making it work. There were various tough obstacles which occured and required professional experience to overcome these, Jonathan handled everything that was thrown at him very with a smile and indeed very well. I am not quite sure what we would have done without him. "

From:- Laura Charles ( Reviva Weddings )

Hi Jonathan,

" It was an absolute pleasure to have met you.

Without you, the obstacles that were present during this conference would never have been overcome, and that would have made the conference a shambles, and I can only thank you for holding it all together for us. I will certainly stay in touch with you and will be more than happy to recommend your services to our clients here in Spain, there really is nobody like you in our country with your level of talent and expertees. Thank you once again for acting so professionally. "

Very Best wishes
Laura

From :- Joyce & Eleonora ( Dream on Wedding - Italy )

Dear Jonathan,

Written Review from the mother of the bride...

Dear Jonathan,
Many thanks for all your hard work on Sunday for Madeleine and Toby’s wedding. You did a great job of keeping the whole wedding moving forward, making sure everyone got to where they had to be on time, and navigating our way through all the formal proceedings.
I didn’t have to look at my copy of the timeline at all – as I knew you were on top of it. Our guests had such a good time, and were in high spirits – which did sometimes mean you had to repeat yourselves a few times to move things along - but you managed to get everyone’s attention when you needed to. I have forwarded your email to Madeleine and Toby regarding the wedding industry awards – as it looks like it has to be completed by the bride and groom.

Many thanks once again,
With best regards
Adrienne

Thank you once again and of course if the situation arises we would have no doubt in booking you a 2nd time.

All the best.
The Nourani Family

I also received a personal testimonial from The Bride, as you can see below:

"Jonathan was the Toastmaster at my wedding on 13 May 2012 and I was extremely pleased with the job he did, both prior to and at the wedding itself. Prior to the wedding Jonathan came to my home to discuss the itinerary with my family and I. He provided interesting suggestions for the order of the day and wrote down exactly what we wanted before writing up a detailed summary and sending it to the caterer and I.
At the wedding itself my husband and I could relax and enjoy ourselves, knowing that Jonathan was doing an excellent job guiding the guests from the reception area to the dinner, to the dance floor, back to the tables, back to the dance floor and so on. He appeared to be in three places all at the same time in certain cases, for example, I saw him assisting us with the photos on Grosvenor Square outside the hotel by calling out the names of who is in each shot, but then I also knew that he had followed the timetable right down to the last detail by ensuring that all the guests had moved from the reception into the dining area whilst we were still outside having our family photos taken.
Jonathan has got a very friendly and jovial nature. When he spoke into the mic to welcome my husband and I onto the dance floor and invited the guests to join us, you would have thought he was an old friend, because of the sheer warmth in his voice. He really tries to make the wedding special for the couple and is very aware of where he is.
As we were heading towards the last hour and a half of our wedding, Jonathan came over to the top table and asked my husband and I whether we wanted the band to continue playing English music, to go on to play more Israeli music. Jonathan was aware that it was our day, and he came to us, instead of any other member of each of our families.
Jonathan’s great. Don’t hesitate if you’re wondering whether you need a toastmaster. He’s fun, smiley and polite "
Regards , Sharon.

This communication was invaluable, as because of Jonathan’s vast experience his time management was superb and ensured a very smooth flow of events on the night "

Event: Jewish Wedding of Nadia and Bradley
Venue: Pendley Manor, Cow Lane, Tring, Hertfordshire. HP23 5QY
Date : 14 August 2011

I was delighted to be asked to officiate as Jewish Wedding Toastmaster and Coordinator and Master of Ceremonies at The Wedding of Nadia and Bradley at Pendley Manor. Pendley Manor is a very nice hotel and stately home, based in The Hertfordshire Countryside. My clients request was to be professional but very modern and to bring in a lot of fun, and that is exactly what I did.

As Hertfordshire Wedding Toastmaster I get to meet and work many different Wedding Professionals, and I was delighted to be working with one of The very top tier Videographers, we worked great alongside each other, and Gavin was kind enough to e-mail me a testimonial based on my performance, as you can see below:

"Jonathan was a pleasure to work with at the wedding at Pendley Manor in Tring. Unlike some of the 'stuffy' toastmasters that can be found, not a moment went by without a smile on Jonathan's face and involvement with guests, getting audience participation throughout the evening from introducing the rabbi, thanking speech makers, or thanking the band and other services involved. From a professional viewpoint in videography, I'd have no hesitation in recommending Jonathan for reasons such as supplying me with the running order in advance of the wedding, making sure myself and colleagues are ready to record before speeches and always informing us about what's about to happen during the day. He even made sure we were to be fed during the evening!- Gavin Freedman ( Moving Memories Videography) "

On The 28 August 2011, I was delighted to receive recognition for services as Wedding Toastmaster and Master of Ceremonies from The bride and Groom, here are their kind words below:-

"We were searching for a toastmaster when we came across Jon's website. Having contacted him he came round to discuss our forthcoming wedding and our requirements. When we met, we found him to be very professional and very knowledgable about Jewish weddings. After our first meeting Jon very promptly confirmed in writing all the timings and everything that was discussed. Jon kept in contact with us in the lead up to our big day and we made sure he was aware of any changes or new ideas which we had, which Jon in turn had no problem accommodating."

"On our wedding day we want to say Jon was absolutely fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. He even helped hold the bride's dress! Jon made sure everything went smoothly on the day and really took the stress from us, which was a huge weight off our shoulders. We cannot thank Jon enough for all this support and assistance on our wedding day, and would recommend him 100% as he is a brilliant and professional toastmaster for all occasions. Our family cannot stop raving about how modern and unique his style was - the way he high-fived the Rabbi following the ceremony and joined in the the Israeli dancing! "

Jon, thank you very much again for all your help.
Love from Nadia and Bradley Joseph
