Master of ceremonies for your wedding
You enjoy, Eddy takes care of it.
On your wedding day, the master of ceremonies runs the show so you don’t have to. Eddy Kips has done this since 2010 and has already guided more than 100 weddings.
What does a wedding master of ceremonies do?
A master of ceremonies guides the wedding day itself. He keeps the timeline and timing on track, makes sure guests are in the right place on time, coordinates with the venue and suppliers on the day and solves the unexpected behind the scenes.
At Huwelijkssuite, it goes beyond the day itself. Eddy already supports you during the preparations with expert advice, so the day truly matches what you have in mind.

- 05
Timing that works

Calm when the unexpected happens
A coach breaking down at the church, a sudden thunderstorm: Eddy has handled it before, without the couple noticing a thing.
The biggest misconception
Master of ceremonies or wedding planner?
Many people think a master of ceremonies is a wedding planner. They are two different roles that complement each other perfectly. When the two click, you get what Eddy calls a power organisation.
| Wedding planner | Master of ceremonies | |
|---|---|---|
| Focus | The organisation in the run-up | The wedding day itself |
| Suppliers and venue | Finds, books and manages them | Coordinates timing with them on the day |
| On the wedding day | Depends on the agreement | Present all day, stays in control |
| Goal | Getting everything arranged | A smooth day without stress |

Questions about the master of ceremonies
What does a master of ceremonies do at a wedding?
A master of ceremonies guides the wedding day itself. He keeps the timeline and timing on track, makes sure guests are in the right place on time, coordinates with the venue and suppliers on the day and solves unexpected problems behind the scenes. That way the couple and their family can fully enjoy the day instead of managing it.
What is the difference between a master of ceremonies and a wedding planner?
A wedding planner organises everything from A to Z, such as suppliers and the venue. A master of ceremonies guides the wedding day itself: he keeps it running smoothly and takes away the stress. They often work closely together, and when they click, you have a strong organisation. At Huwelijkssuite, Eddy also gives expert advice on organising the wedding.
What does the master of ceremonies do the day before the wedding?
Eddy gives the couple a call the day before. He checks the weather forecast and gives advice, for example if it is going to be a very hot day.
Does the master of ceremonies also manage the suppliers?
Finding and managing suppliers is the wedding planner’s job. On the wedding day itself, the master of ceremonies does coordinate timing with the venue, kitchen, photographer and DJ. If a supplier does not keep to the agreements, he stays calm, informs the wedding planner and actively helps find a solution.
Does the master of ceremonies stay with us all day?
Yes. Eddy guides you throughout the whole day. Beforehand, you go through every moment together, so he knows exactly what matters to you.
Can Huwelijkssuite guide a wedding abroad?
Yes. Huwelijkssuite guides weddings in Belgium and abroad. Get in touch with Eddy to discuss the options for your destination.
