## About Wedding & Social Event Hosting

### What I Bring To The Stage

I don’t just read from a script. For me, it's all about real crowd engagement techniques for weddings. I read the room, switch up the plan on the fly, and use my voice (sometimes a bit too loud, sorry!) to get everyone excited. If you want a wedding or social event where people actually connect, not just watch, that’s what I do.

### Energizing Every Function

No matter if it’s a wild sangeet, a chill Mehendi, or one of those crazy Baraat on Wheels, I bring the vibe. Pool parties? After-parties? Yes, I’ll be the one making even your shy chacha (uncle) do a hook step or your friends belt out 90s songs. Love taking up interactive sangeet party ideas and making them work for your crowd.

### Multilingual Vibes

I switch between English, Hindi, Gujarati, Kannada, and Marathi - works wonders when you want both your Gujju aunty and Kannada best friend to feel included. Being a multilingual wedding host in India means I can literally talk to everyone.

### Making It Yours

Before the big day, I want to know what makes you both tick. Your story, your in-jokes, your energy - all of it. My aim is to make your wedding feel like your people, not a show for strangers.

### The Real Behind The Scenes

Not gonna lie, it’s not always glam - lots of last-minute changes, late-night calls, and scrambling for outfits that match your theme. But I love it. Every event is different and that keeps things real.

## Meet your expert

[Ruchi Shah](https://mytribe.in/emceeshah)

### My story

Hey, I’m Ruchi. People always guess I’m younger—till I start talking, then they know! I started in electronics engineering, but honestly, I just wanted to be on stage. Miss Malad 2018, some ramp walks, college fest hosting, all that. Not gonna lie, this industry can be tough. Got body-shamed, heard ‘let’s fix you’ from a doctor. That hit hard. Gym and self-care changed things for me. My first emcee gig was a birthday party, and now I’ve done TEDx. Didn’t plan any of this, but here I am, loving every bit.

### My work

- **Events I Host**: Corporate events, weddings, product launches, awards nights, team offsites, expos—if it needs energy, I’m there.
- **Spontaneous Crowd Engagement**: I don’t stick to the script if it’s not working. I read the room and improvise to get everyone involved.
- **Multilingual Hosting**: I can anchor in English, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, and Kannada. Toh chaliye, let’s make your event lively!
- **Prep and Personalization**: I research, customize, and rehearse for every event. You get a partner, not just a voice.
- **Professionalism with Personality**: I treat every event like it’s my own brand—punctual, prepared, and always levelling up.
