Please list if you will have anyone speaking. Usually one to two people speak at most for ribbon cuttings. 

We can introduce your first speaker if you would like. If you have more than one, usually we introduce the first and then you introduce the next speaker. 

At most ribbon cuttings, our Ambassador Chair will say a couple of words and count you down to cut the ribbon so it’s a smooth transition. Are you OK with this?

Please select one or more fields that apply to your business.
