Your local host, with a national track record

Essex has a busy events calendar of its own: county business awards, chamber dinners, charity balls at the big country-house venues, school and college ceremonies, and a sporting scene that runs from Premiership rugby to village cricket dinners. Rhys hosts all of it with the same craft he brought to twelve seasons at the WRU Official Members Club in Cardiff.

Being local matters. He can meet you at the venue, join a rehearsal, and be first in on the day. It also means Essex bookings come without a travel supplement.

Where Rhys hosts in Essex

Events Rhys hosts across the county

Corporate work sits at the centre: company conferences, AGMs and staff events, business and industry awards, and panels and fireside chats. Around that, Essex clients book him for charity balls, auctions and fundraisers, sports dinners and club awards nights, hospitality days and live interviews with guest players. He is a trained bass-baritone, so the night can open or close with a song.

Essex venues and the rooms that suit them

From Georgian country houses and barn venues to hotel ballrooms, racecourses and stadium hospitality, Rhys adapts the hosting to the room. A 400-cover awards night in a marquee needs a different energy from an intimate client dinner for forty, and he reads both.

Also serving London and the UK

Essex sits on the doorstep of the capital, and Rhys hosts across London and the UK. If your event is elsewhere, the same host and the same preparation travel with him.
