Hosting is no nerve-wracking task for me anymore, having done it a couple of times already. It's my first, however, to do a wedding reception.
Managing a contact center, I hate it when people think either I have a natural American accent or I have a hefty salary and a sports car. I still have my neutral accent (proud to sound more Filipino) and the salary is not something the BIR will bother going after! This is why I think I get a lot of hosting and presenting duties--work and elsewhere.
The non-stop pouring of rain brought the Saturday afternoon wedding to Brittany clubhouse instead of the garden venue at Sitio Seville (both near SM City Fairview). With the emailed script and a wireless microphone on hand, I thought I sounded boring and corporate-like (did my wife agree?). While I wanted to sound bubbly and funny, I was a serious emcee as I thought I might distract the very solemn Christian ceremonies. Saw my wife shedding tears as Zaldy tried to keep from crying by making fun of himself (cool photos). It was, as one would expect, a ceremonial mix of laughter and tears.
Cheers to Mr. and Mrs. Zaldy Seguin!
