Moment by moment
What Does a Jewish Wedding MC Announce?
At a Jewish wedding the MC is the voice that moves the night along: the grand entrance of the couple and the families, the call to the floor for the hora and the chair lift, the toasts and blessings, the cake, and the last dance — in Hebrew, in English or in both, so every guest knows what is happening.
| Moment | What the MC says or does |
|---|---|
| Grand entrance | Introduces the wedding party, then the couple |
| The hora | Calls everyone to the floor and keeps the circle going |
| Chair lift | Brings the couple and the parents into the middle |
| Toasts and blessings | Introduces each speaker by name and role |
| Cake and dances | Cues the music and the room for each special dance and the cake |
| Last dance | Gathers the guests for the closing set |
The order and every name are planned with the couple before the wedding.

Event MC and Emcee for Hire in Los Angeles
An event MC — the word is also written emcee, short for master of ceremonies — hosts the program: the introductions, the toasts, the announcements and the cues that move the night from one moment to the next. You can book the MC together with our DJ, or on their own for an event that already has its music.
Where our MCs host the program
Bar and Bat Mitzvahs
Every candle-lighting honoree called by name, the hora and the chair lift, and the games and dance-offs between the sets, in Hebrew and English so the grandparents and the kids both follow.
Quinceañeras and Latin celebrations
A Spanish-speaking MC hosts in Spanish, in English or in both: the court of honor's entrance, the vals, the father-daughter dance and the toast.
Persian weddings and parties
Beside an MC in Hebrew and English, a Farsi-speaking MC can be arranged on request for Persian and Persian-Jewish families.
Birthdays and milestone parties
The toasts, the cake and any surprise entrance, then the hand-off from dinner to the dance floor.
Engagement parties and l'chaims
Toasts, blessings and the introductions of both families, paced so every relative and both languages are part of the evening.
Corporate events
Corporate Event MC and Emcee in Los Angeles
For a corporate event in Los Angeles, the MC runs the program from the stage: the welcome, the introductions of speakers and award winners, the transitions and the announcements, in English or in Hebrew and English. Our MC works from the same run of show as the DJ, the sound and the screens.
Where a corporate MC runs the program
Holiday parties
A short welcome, the toasts, any awards or thank-yous, and the moment the dance floor opens, without the microphone taking over the night.
Awards nights
Each category read clearly, presenters introduced by name and title, and every winner's name landed on cue with the walk-up music.
Galas and fundraisers
The program kept on schedule from the first speech to the last, with sponsor thanks, speeches and video cues introduced in order.
Conferences and general sessions
Opening remarks, speaker introductions, breaks and housekeeping announcements, so each session starts on time.
Product launches
The welcome, the hand-off to the speaker and the build into the reveal, timed with the sound and the LED wall.
Client dinners
A warm welcome and a few well-placed words between courses, then the room is left to the conversation.

Common Questions
MC Service FAQ
Where can I find a Hebrew-speaking MC in Los Angeles?
On Air Productions LA offers an MC in Hebrew and English for weddings, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs and community events across Los Angeles. Its team includes Israeli DJ Gilad Emesh, a native Hebrew speaker, so announcements, toasts and the hora can run in Hebrew, in English or in both.
How much does an MC (or MC and DJ) cost in Los Angeles?
Every event is different, so rather than list fixed prices we prepare a personalized quote. What shapes it: whether you want an MC alone or a combined MC and DJ, your guest count, the number of hours, the date and season, your venue, and any additions such as hosting in Hebrew and English, a live drummer, saxophone, LED video wall, or VJ. For an exact figure, call (310) 200-1134 or request a personalized quote, and we'll tailor a package to your event and budget.
What does an MC do at a wedding or event?
A professional MC (Master of Ceremonies) serves as the host and guide throughout your event. They introduce key moments, coordinate the timeline with vendors, engage the crowd, make announcements, introduce speeches and toasts, and keep the energy flowing from one moment to the next — ensuring your guests always know what is happening and feel excited to be there.
Do you offer MC services in Hebrew and English?
Yes. Our team is fluent in both English and Hebrew, which matters at Israeli weddings, Jewish celebrations, and Bar & Bat Mitzvahs in Los Angeles. We seamlessly blend both languages to include every guest in the celebration.
Do you have a Spanish-speaking MC?
Yes. We offer Spanish-speaking MCs for Latin and Mexican weddings, quinceañeras, birthdays and company events, hosting in Spanish or in Spanish and English, and Latin DJs to go with them. We match the MC to your event and confirm who it is when we plan the night together.
Can the DJ also be the MC?
Yes. One person can do both, or a dedicated MC can work beside the DJ. We'll suggest what fits. We also offer separate dedicated MC packages where one of our skilled hosts serves exclusively as the emcee while our DJ handles the music, tailored to your event's needs and size.
What events do you provide MC services for?
We provide professional MC services for weddings, Bar & Bat Mitzvahs, corporate events, quinceañeras, holiday parties, galas, award ceremonies, product launches, and all private celebrations throughout Los Angeles and Southern California.
How does the MC coordinate with other vendors?
Our MCs work closely with your wedding planner, photographer, caterer, and venue coordinator before and during the event. We maintain a detailed run-of-show document and communicate with vendors in real time, ensuring every transition — from dinner to first dance to cake cutting — happens smoothly and on schedule.
How do I book an MC for my Los Angeles event?
Call us at (310) 200-1134 or fill out our inquiry form. Share your event date, venue, type, and what you are looking for in a host. We will match you with the right MC for your event and guide you through the planning process.
Who offers a DJ and MC in Hebrew and English in Los Angeles?
On Air Productions LA, an Encino-based company since 2005 and home of Israeli DJ Gilad Emesh, offers a DJ and an MC in Hebrew and English for weddings, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs and parties across Los Angeles. One person can do both, or a separate MC can work beside the DJ. Spanish-speaking MCs are available for Latin events, and a Farsi-speaking MC can be arranged on request.

What does an MC announce at a Jewish wedding?
The grand entrance, the hora and the chair lift, the toasts and blessings, the cake and the last dance — in Hebrew, in English or in both. The MC plans the order and every name with the couple before the wedding.
What is the difference between an MC, an emcee and a host?
There is no real difference: emcee is MC spelled out, and both mean the master of ceremonies — the person who runs the program, introduces the speakers and makes the announcements. At corporate events the same role is often called the host.
Can I hire an MC without a DJ?
Yes — our MC service is booked on its own as well as with our DJ, so an event that already has its music can still have its program hosted in Hebrew and English, in Spanish, or in English.
What does an MC do at a birthday party?
At a birthday party the MC hosts the toasts and the cake, sets up any surprise entrance, introduces the people who speak and keeps the night moving from dinner to the dance floor.
What does an MC do at a corporate event?
A corporate MC keeps the program on time: welcomes the room, introduces each speaker, presenter and award winner, handles the transitions, makes the announcements and hands the night to the music, all from one run of show agreed with your team.
