"Frank was able to, on short notice, conceive some very funny and unique lines for the event.  I gave Frank some characteristics of the couple - occupation, place of birth, hobbies etc. And he came up with some very funny one-liners.  I can only imagine how funny Frank is doing these lines himself.  I highly recommend Frank for any event where laughter and a good time are the goals."
