“Max is one emcee that has gained the respect of his friends in the industry. He is dependable and very articulate as an emcee. He can hold the attention of the guests or audience because of his voice. Whether it’s singing or hosting, he modulates his voice.”
Penk Ching, Pastry Bin Cakes
“As a photographer witnessing a program almost every other day, I’ve learned that being a host takes more than looks and a great voice. A host must also possess the following:
1. Flexibility – to change the program on the fly in case something comes up.
2. Singing Voice – you never know when the host needs to sing to fill in a gap.
3. Charm – Ok… Most hosts can talk… But can you get the guests to participate?
Max has a great sense of humor, is decent on stage, brings life to the program, dresses well and is stage smart.
It is because of these that Max is on top of my list of recommended hosts, not only for Chinese couples but for every couple. He is indeed one of the best hosts around.”
John Mateos Ong, Photography & Videography
“I have worked with Max in several of my Chinese weddings… I find him very pleasant to work with, he makes my work so much easier… it is always a smooth program with Max around… oh and not to forget! Max sings very well!”

“My wife, Jennifer, and I had the pleasure and honor of engaging Mr. Max Tiu to emcee at our wedding reception at the Century Seafood Restaurant on July 08, 2001. On that special night, Max, a superb emcee, a charming host, and a great singer, enthralled and captivated my wedding guests with his arrangement of a rich repertoire of old, romantic songs and contemporary numbers. The artistically crafted video presentation megged by no less than Max himself thrilled the audience to no end. My wife and I can’t thank Max enough for turning our wedding reception into a truly memorable and once-in-a-lifetime experience.”

“A cousin who knew Max’s work recommended him to us. The first time we met, he was able to answer all our questions and concerns. He asked us what kind of program we wanted, making our program unique from other couples. From that meeting alone we knew that we have found the guy who will be able to handle the stress of entertaining 800 people.
We only met Max a couple of times to formally discuss the plans of our wedding, but he makes you feel as though you’ve known him your whole life. Before our wedding, we saw Max in different occasions and events, and he would always walk up to us and ask how we were doing and joke around with us.
At our wedding reception, Max was very “hands-on” when it comes to the flow of the program; he was also like one of our coordinators, helping us with the little details that would have been overlooked. Due to heavy traffic, our wedding had to start late since most of the guests haven’t arrived yet. But we must admit that Max stayed cool, kept his composure and entertained the guests. You could see in Max’s face that he was really enjoying himself at the reception.
We could not recommend anyone who is better than Max Tiu. After our wedding, a lot of people were asking about our host. When we first started looking for an emcee for our wedding, we didn’t expect to find a good friend in Max as well.
Thanks Max!”

I’m so proud of you and to be called your friend and I don’t think I would have let anyone else be my reception host except you. Thanks again for doing it for me; it was a success because of you.”

“Max, what can I say… but you’re GREAT!!! He hosted for my friend’s wedding and a lot of people liked him. My Japanese boss, Mr. Ogata, and the other Japanese guests were impressed with Max’s performance! He couldn’t resist asking me to introduce Max to him. He said he had attended several weddings in the United States , Japan and the Philippines , but this wedding has the best host! By the way, he wants to invite you to be the emcee if and when he’s going to have gatherings. Even our officemates were impressed. They said that you’re “an all-around person”– host, singer, and receptionist! By the way, thanks for helping us at the registration.
The email my friend shared with me was full of praises and good comments! Take note! This is a Pinoy couple and yet Max handled it so well. Pang international na si Max!”

“We were very happy to have had Max as our wedding emcee. Mr. Max Tiu was excellent! Another quality we really liked about him was his professionalism. We were both living in the United States and briefly met with him to acquire his services, after which we had to leave Manila. Max was very good with keeping in touch with us. He was sensitive about what we wanted for the reception and he made good suggestions about what works in a program. The program he set for our reception was very entertaining and creative. He kept the program flowing smoothly. He was able to capture the audience’s attention throughout the whole evening. We got a significant number of good feedbacks from our guests. He had charisma,a strong clear voice, and excellent language skills in English and Chinese. His Mandarin was definitely better than ours. He surprised us with his singing ability. He was really good! He could sing English and Chinese songs. He brought his own sound system, which was very good. It didn’t make funny noises. If we get the chance to have another reception in the future, we would definitely get Max again. We highly recommend him as an emcee.”

“Mr. Max Tiu is just what an events host should be – articulate and presentable! He delivers his spiels very well, whether you want it in English, Mandarin, Fookien, or Filipino. He has good rapport with the audience and is never too loud. As a plus, he sings exceptionally well and presents himself with class.
An events host must be able to achieve what the celebrant or couple wants and Max does this really well. He puts them on top of his priority because he keeps in mind that the couple or celebrant should always be the highlight of the event. Working with Max in our events is truly pleasurable as he works professionally and ensures that our events run as smoothly as possible. He is indeed the best events host there is!”
Denise Doratan
Kanchiu ETC Events Coordinator
“Max is a great host who can captivate the crowd with his witty sense of humor. If that alone can’t capture your attention, then hear him sing and you will be mesmerized. A very professional and earnest person, it is always a great pleasure to work with Mr. Max Tiu.”

“Max did a great job in our wedding! He helped us with the whole program and we didn’t have to worry about a thing during our reception. Hats off to his commitment! He fainted on the morning of our wedding day and was even brought to the operating room for stitches on his head, but he was there to host our wedding. He’s very fluent in English, Mandarin and Tagalog and he sings a wide repertoire of songs very well. Even after our wedding, we can still count on him on anything. He even taught us how to type our invitations in Chinese!”

“I expected a personable and vocally talented emcee in Max Tiu, but he exceeded expectations. For our grandparents’ 90th and 82nd birthday celebration, Max helped us craft a programme to make it a night to remember. As often happens, things don’t always go according to plan. Max was flexible enough to accommodate the requested programme changes on the spot, and managed to keep cool under pressure. His skills and personality make him stand out from other emcees.”

“Max is the “handyman” when it comes to wedding emceeing. He walked us through the reception program every step of the way. He made sure that we, the couple, were kept updated every time there were any changes. He is very organized and very knowledgeable with his expertise. He consults every detail on how we want him to bring about the whole program (i.e. volume of the speakers, formality of the emcee, toasting, speeches, etc.). Plus bonuses!!! Why? He extends help and goes the extra mile by entertaining our inquiries that are not inclusive in our contract (i.e. good recommendations of other suppliers, suggestions at church, etc.). He is highly recommended and very dependable. In a nutshell, he’s all you need for an efficient emcee.”

“Even from the start, I wanted to get Max as our emcee due to all the positive feedbacks. As soon as we had our first meeting, that decision was solidified. I wanted no one else to host our wedding. I knew that we were both on the same track because even before I told him what we wanted, he was already telling me that he would do the exact thing that was on my mind.
Come wedding day, we were confident that he would deliver well and he did. Our friends and colleagues were all amazed that he can do so many things. Fluent in both English and Mandarin and also sings well to boot, he was able to carry the whole reception program without a glitch.

“Our wedding was a year in the making so it gave us ample time to decide on tons of choices. We had to pick our church, our reception venue and of course the perfect host for the latter.
There were a lot of suggestions and recommendations, so many trials and rounds of samplings. But it’s a good thing my wife insisted on getting Max Tiu as the emcee for our special day. Max kept in touch with us all throughout, from the beginning to the day itself. He made sure that we were well informed about everything.
There was a time during our reception when one of our audio-visual presentations wouldn’t play, but with Max around, the guests didn’t even notice that there was something wrong. That’s how well he handles a critical situation.
There is no doubt that booking him was the best choice we ever made. Multi-lingual entertainment at it’s finest, that’s Max for you! Do I need to say more? Lots’a thanks, Max!”

“We’ve seen Max Tiu several times from the weddings of our friends. Both of us decided “one day, when we are getting married, Max will be our emcee”. So when we finally started the wedding preparations, the first thing we did was to book Max for our special day. That was more than a year before our wedding date. In fact, we did not contact any other events hosts anymore. From the start we knew that Max would be the perfect emcee for us. From our first meeting, we noticed that he is very organized. He plans well and he customized the program according to our preference. He even coordinated with the hotel for our program. It’s like having a coordinator and host rolled into one. We didn’t have to worry about anything that day. Everyone in our reception had a great time. The program was not boring and Max interacted with our guests very well. My auntie who came from Canada was really impressed with Max. My cousin even asked me for his contact information, as he wants to refer him to his friends. A multilingual emcee and a great singer – what more can you ask for? Thanks Max for being a part of our wedding and making our special day memorable!”

“No client is too big or small for Mr. Tiu. He has done many personal and high profile events such as the Independence Day show at the Philippine International Convention Center (PICC) with Her Excellency President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo as the guest of honor. Thanks to his commanding stage presence, he can fill up any venue he goes to, but considers the couple at weddings to be the main event, with him as a supporting character spicing up the affair. His elegant yet vibrant and lively performances have made Max a highly sought after talent in the entertainment business.”
“Max was referred to me by my events coordinator from Hyatt Hotel & Casino where the wedding reception was being held. We reside in Los Angeles and we all know that planning a wedding isn’t easy, especially when you are half way around the world. I was looking for a supplier whom I would be able to correspond with easily via e-mail. Max was one of my very few suppliers that was very easy to correspond with. I would send him an e-mail in the morning (LA time) and often times within an hour or so I’d quickly get a response. We were also in need of a DJ for the event and Max was able to assist us with hiring one. My brother-in-law met with Max before we did and right after meeting him, he told me “You guys are going to really like Max! I can see you guys getting along just fine. He seems really great to work with!” Growing up in the U.S., I’m used to attending weddings where in guests stay up until the end, meaning until the ballroom attendants kicks everyone out. Guests also willingly participate in all the activities during the wedding — bouquet toss, garter toss and dancing. Little did we know that things were different here. During our first meeting with Max, he informed us that in weddings in Manila, guests tend to “eat & run” and they tend to not participate in the bouquet and garter tosses (KJ as Max had put it!) which of course made us re-think the whole program we already had in mind. Being the professional that he is, Max suggested many alternatives to the “tosses” and ways in which we would be able to incorporate some of the activities during dinner time. Which worked out real well. During our second meeting, Max helped us choose songs for particular parts of the reception and practiced the pronunciations of all the names of our parents, sponsors and entourage. Which I never thought of discussing with him, but it was a great idea. My husband and I wanted someone who would really liven up the wedding… we made the right decision by hiring Max. He worked and coordinated well with our wedding coordinator. He sang really well with the string quartet, they worked great as a team. He dressed very professional (in a black suit) and his shirt and tie matched our color motiff. His diction was impeccable and really has a way of getting everyone to listen and pay attention to him. During the games, he really seemed like a game show host! He was not a scene stealer at all, he didn’t share corny jokes, he didn’t talk too much non-sense — which I’ve seen other wedding hosts do. He really made the night “our” night. We are one of the first couples to get married in our family and group of friends. We will DEFINITELY refer Max as a host to our family and friends! Max, thank you so much for hosting our wedding reception! We received a lot of compliments from our family & friends asking us for your name and how we heard of you. They too were very impressed with your hosting skills. We hope we cross paths again one day… at a family or friend’s wedding perhaps!”

“Max did a great job hosting our wedding reception. We met with Max just once, a month before our wedding and on that meeting, he was very professional and was able to suggest how the program should run since we didn’t really have that much idea on how it should be. During the wedding reception, Max didn’t give us any jittery moments since he was very well organised and the whole night went out so well. Max can fluently converse both in English and Chinese and he was able to grab the attention of our guests. The guests commented on the smooth flow of program and that there was never a time that it was boring or dragging. It was one of the best hosted wedding parties they’ve ever been to and we agree with our guests.”

“We never had second thoughts of getting Max as our reception host. Who else can do a better job than him? No one! He’s multi-lingual, he sings and he’s presentable. What more can you ask for?
I’ve seen Max work in a lot of events I’ve had and I’ve always looked up on him on his hosting skills. He knows how to grab the attention of his audience without being too noisy and annoying (Chinese speaking hosts tend to be noisy and annoying, but definitely not Max). He’s the best there is in the industry! Again, I won’t settle for anyone else! I’d die if we weren’t able to book him for our wedding.”

“In searching for an emcee for our events, it is important to look for someone who could best represent the organization’s reputable, dignified and respectable image. Mr. Max Tiu carries himself well in both our formal and casual events. He is a remarkable host; has good command of both Mandarin and the English language; and most importantly, he takes instructions very well even if at times they are given the last minute.”
