The Association of Scottish Toastmasters is the only organisation representing professional Toastmasters working in Scotland, was formed in the millennium year.  The members, who have over one hundred years of experience between them, officiate at Royal and State occasions, weddings, banquets, dinners and many other formal and informal functions.

The following year Scottish Toastmasters was officially launched on 21st March.  A ceremony to mark the occasion was held in rooms adjacent to the Scottish Parliament and was attended by the patron The Rt Hon Lord Steel of Aikwood who presented each member with their distinctive 'millennium tartan' sash and certificate of enrolment.

Dignity, Efficiency and Peace of Mind on your Perfect Day

Available for Weddings

 

After all the planning and preparations, you'll want your Wedding Reception to run smoothly, and that's where a Professional Toastmaster will be of great benefit. 

With a wealth of experience, our members will co-ordinate the entire event, and also resolve any minor problems. 

We liaise with everyone involved to ensure the day is run exactly as you wish.

 


From the arrival of Guests to the First Waltz, your Toastmaster will:

  • Ensure that the wedding breakfast is conducted with attention to protocol.
  • Free the Banqueting Manager and staff to concentrate on the catering arrangements
  • Help photographers and video film crews to create a memorable visual record of the proceedings.
  • Add a traditional and colourful touch to a wedding.
  • Provide "peace of mind" for parents, and bride and groom.

and perform many duties, including:

  • Informing Guests of the order of proceeding
  • Organising and Introducing the Receiving Line
  • Cutting the Cake with Ceremony
  • Announcing all the Speeches and Toasts

Even before your Big Day, your Toastmaster can offer advice on timings, speeches, etiquette, and will be only too happy to discuss your plans in detail. 

The Toastmaster's traditional uniform, complete with red tail-coat, adds an extra splash of colour. Coupled with professional conduct, tact and expertise, your Wedding Reception will be in reliable hands.
