Marriage compering is a growing industry, gaining popularity as it passes each day. A wedding comperer is essential to keep the day running smoothly. It is usually a relative of the bride or groom doing the compering. New trends show that couples nowadays prefer a professional wedding comperer to work because they have more experience. In addition, they add a bit of shine and elegance to the function.
For high-profile weddings, celebrity compers such as Ranjini Haridas transform the event to a completely different level. Below is a sample compere script that can be used for a Christian wedding reception:
Wedding Compere
Marriage is the fusion of two hearts, a harmony of two souls, and the union of two families.
It is an eternal commitment that two people make to believe and to understand each other, and truly love each other.
