London toastmaster, MC & event host

Toastmaster & event host in London

A London wedding toastmaster, MC and event host who has worked the capital’s best rooms for over 15 years, from weddings and awards to conferences and launches.

Fifteen years hosting London’s best rooms

I have hosted 39 events across London since 2017, from weddings and black-tie awards nights to corporate conferences, product launches and private celebrations. It is the city I work most, and the room I know best.

I came up through television, comedy and live entertainment, so a London event feels like a show rather than a running order read aloud. Whether it is 200 guests at a Mayfair dinner or a full conference hall, my job is to read the room second by second and keep the whole evening moving.

  • Corporate awards, conferences, galas, launches and celebrations
  • One host for the whole evening, not a patchwork of acts
  • A pre-event consultation as standard, so nothing is a surprise on the night

Kevin was a fantastic Master of Ceremonies at our wedding in September. He was energetic and engaging and really helped the day go smoothly. Everybody commented on the games and entertainment, and his style was very well received.
Victoria Rowell, Wedding
Great man and fantastic host. I met Kevin when he was the host of the launch of my life’s most important event so far. The launch of Heelo was an unforgettable experience and Kevin made it so much greater and more amusing than it was.
Khurram Asif, Heelo launch, Mayfair
My company used Kevin’s services for our awards evening, and we were blown away with his performance. From the time of engagement Kevin was very clear and communicative, gave great advice and set clear deadlines. We will definitely be working with Kevin again.
Fahim Modak, Corporate awards evening
Kevin recently hosted a company corporate event and proved to be the consummate professional throughout the evening. With his depth of experience, Kevin kept the evening flowing superbly and has the unique ability to read a room and keep everyone happy.
