Anchors in Kolkata

Savvy Wedding Anchor or Host in Kolkata 

Indian weddings are a funfilled affair and we are not just talking about the fun, happy vibes of the family being together. Rather we are talking about various entertainment options like the DJ set up, performances by live bands and the most loved aspect, comedy by a wedding emcee. There are various names given to this individual such as emcee, MC (Master of Ceremony), anchor or host. Traditionally the concept of Emcee originated from western weddings, where they are responsible for hosting the entire wedding.

But in Indian weddings, we are more familiar with the concept of an anchor or host who entertains the guests during ladies sangeet. Event anchors in Kolkata are responsible to divert the guests’ attention if they start feeling bored or sleepy during sangeet ceremony by conducting fun activities and playing games. Or if anything interesting is happening at the event, the host will tell the guests about it or maybe involve them in that.

Hence, the role of event hosts in Kolkata during wedding festivities is to make it more fun for all the guests. And this calls for hiring an expert who knows the in-out of this job. But finding an ideal wedding emcee is not like a walk in the park as it requires understanding as well as research in this field. To help you out, we have compiled a list of 6 pointers to keep in mind when searching for a super cool anchor who will rock the wedding festivities.

6 Pointer Checklist to Hire the Best Wedding Anchor or Host

  • Pick the best and leave the rest. When you will start searching for male anchors in Kolkata, getting confused is damn obvious. With so many people in this profession, it is necessary for you to hire only the best (or rather the most experienced). Get in touch with friends or relatives who recently got married and ask them about any host they know or can recommend. 
  • Schedule at least 3-4 interviews and finalize only after meeting them. Many couples commit a huge blunder by booking the first wedding emcee they meet. We highly recommend you to plan at least three interviews because this will help in comparing different services as well as the cost. And through this comparison, you will be able to clinch the best deal. 
  • Look at the experience and previous hosting videos. While you are meeting different anchors in Kolkata, ask them to share the videos of their previous works. This will show how the host performs at an actual function, whether he is able to entertain the audience? Have a proper amount of confidence? In addition to this, there is also another aspect which needs attention is hiring only those emcees who have experience in hosting ladies sangeet functions, and not corporate parties etc.
  • Give them a brief idea about all the family members and close friends. Many female anchors in Kolkata like to involve the family members of the bride and groom in their games. Hence, you should inform about or personally introduce the close-knit family members as well as friends to the host. This will help the emcee to talk and understand about their personalities using which they give different adjectives during an announcement of dance performances.
  • Please do not ask any family member to become an anchor or host for your sangeet function. There are still some couples who do this, but it is important to understand the basic difference in an experienced host versus a family member. And it all comes down to the experience! You surely do not want the function to become monotonous for all the wedding guests. An experienced host knows how to bring out all the wedding guests from the monotony which occurs during the function. 
  • Finalize the total amount of money he or she will charge. It is a common notion amongst many couples that cost of hiring a wedding emcee is very low. But they are shocked to know the prevailing market prices which start from INR 5000 and run up to INR 20000. Hence before you start the search for an emcee, fix the amount of money that can be spent on hiring one. After that, before booking the artist, negotiate the cost and hire only within the pre-decided budget.
