We were absolutely thrilled to have King Guapo as the emcee for our inaugural Ubuntu Fundraising Gala—he was everything we hoped for and more! From the very start, he made the planning process effortless with his professionalism, clear communication, and responsiveness. He didn’t just show up for the event—he was fully engaged throughout, collaborating with our team and making sure every detail aligned with our vision.
On the night of the gala, King Guapo brought an incredible energy that kept the crowd engaged and excited from beginning to end. His charisma, quick wit, and ability to read the room made every transition seamless and every moment feel special. Whether he was hyping up the audience or guiding us through the program, he struck the perfect balance of enthusiasm and professionalism.
If you're looking for an emcee who can truly elevate an event, we can’t recommend King Guapo enough. His talent for connecting with people and creating an unforgettable atmosphere is unmatched. We can't wait to work with him again!
Response from King Guapo The Royal Mc:
Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to emcee the Ubuntu gala! I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to work with The African Think Tank! Y’all are a great organization and you gave me the platform to do my job with impeccable resources!
We had the honor of flying in Guapo to MC our wedding Nov 2024 and he was great to work with!
-he was flexible in negotiating a fair price
-he provided good contributions to the Vendor's meeting
-he was fun entertaining the guests throughout the night and they had great feedback about him
-he was flexible with everything and adjusting the program accordingly while we had delays
-overall he had a great, positive, and bubbly personality and amazing to work with overall.
My main feedback would be around monitoring the number of mins alloted to each section. For example, the bridal party entrance for each bridesmaid/groomsmen pair felt longer than expected.
Besides this, he is the perfect MC for your next event and you will not regret having him!!!
Thanks again Guapo for everything!
