ABOUT STEPHEN
A Husband, Father, Professional Wedding Host, and Entrepreneur.
I love hosting. Most importantly, I love making people happy, regardless of their culture or upbringing. Aside from giving the guests great entertainment, I also take good care of them.
My love for public speaking led me to start my Hosting Career. From humble beginnings, I strive to improve my hosting skills and quality of life. This allows me to establish a genuine connection with my audience, a connection that makes sense and makes the joy of life , love, and laughter shine.
Some of the brands I've worked with:
The way I connect depends on the type of crowd I entertain.
Here are some showreels I made for couples who want to see how I host.

Bride or Groom?
When we deal with the truth, things can get a little awkward sometimes, good thing is we got some drinks to match this game. Please do excuse me for being a little tipsy haha! We all are!!
You want it to be formal yet fun? I got you.
I’m flexible. The way I talk depends on the crowd and the couple.You can check my other videos as well, wherein I did a different approach.
I am a master of both english and tagalog. In this wedding Showreel, Carl and Chinky's guests are mostly from USA.
Birit to Win it!
Yes, You can go with a crazy wedding game as well.
There’s a proper timing for this kind of intensity.
As I always say to my couples, the emotions of love, laughter, tears and craziness must shine in the right timing.
Former DOH Secretary Duque risked it all for his Nephew, Jaloy.
The wedding of Mr and Mrs Duque featured a very competitive yet goofy Family Feud game. Such a lovely party! Everyone felt at home!
Hosting Reel: Last Man Standing
This is actually one of my favorite light-toned games. It doesn’t require a lot of effort. It’s meaningful. It’s exciting. And just enough to fully break the ice. I usually do these type of games during the early parts of the program to set everyone’s mood for the upcoming segment which demands more engagement.
No electricity, no lights, no music, no mics.
The show must go on!
Something unexpected may always happen, and most of these things are beyond your control. I needed to be someone who can step up, make things happen and make everyone feel that everything is okay, it’s all natural and it’s still a lovely night.
My Daughter's First Birthday
Thankful for the gift of life, the gift of family. Thankful for our friends, my couples and clients who have been trusting me over the years. I appreciate the love and support for our family.
What clients are saying. . .
Highly recommended host! All of our guests enjoyed the reception program from start to finish.
PREP: we scheduled a zoom meeting I think 2 months before the wedding, it was a very productive encounter. Stephen was explaining what will happen during the reception, his suggested activities/games, what should we expect during our big day, etc.
WEEKS BEFORE WEDDING: Stephen was very accommodating when it comes to answering all my questions and clarifications, kahit gabi na. This gesture I truly appreciate.
WEDDING DAY: with his high caliber hosting and very inviting easy-going personality, all of our guests were really engaged during the reception program.
Prior to our entrance, he was mingling with our guests, he was even asking them if they want Whiskey or anything - he was basically starting the show even before we come in to the picture. Sobrang galing!
For the games, I’m glad we chose Family Feud as the major game. My titas loved it. They were all laughing and enjoying themselves.
AFTER PARTY: Stephen made sure to put the cherry on top when he and his team took over during the after party. He even stayed after the reception to actually party with our relatives and friends. The DJ was also very accommodating when it comes to our requests.
OVERALL EXPERIENCE: We loved every part of his hosting. The program was well-thought of, the transition from one part to the next was seamless, and his ability to connect with the guests with his commentary and wit was truly outstanding. Thank you so much Sir Stephen!

My initial choices were the likes of Eri Neeman and JC Alelis. But I ended up having them both by booking Stephen!
We had two online meetings prior to our wedding. On our first meeting, he presented his suggested timeline, getting to know, what we like, what we don’t like, etc. Then he listened to our ideas first and then later on provided suggestions, and since he’s more experienced in weddings than us, we listened to him, incorporated our plans, and ta-dah, our wedding reception ended up short, fun, meaningful, and memorable not just to us but to all our guests.
On the day of our wedding, prior to the start of the program, Stephen dropped by our room for a quick chat and he assured us that the guests are fine and we shall begin the program in a few. He made us feel secured with his line “ako na ang bahala sa mga bisita”. And he did not disappoint. All my last-minute instructions were followed, even if they were given only through messenger. He delivered so well that all our guests said “ang galing ng host ninyo, walang boring moments, he’s a natural, hindi pilit ang pagpapatawa niya, pwede siyang serious tapos comedy” --- and of course “huy ang pogi ng host nyo ah, saan ninyo siya nakita?” at marami pang iba!
Honestly, the main reason why we ended up having Stephen was because of budget. I would say, if we had more budget, we wouldn’t have booked him.
BUT, dito ko masasabi na yung binigay niya sa amin na hosting performance ay sobra sobra sa rate na binigay niya. I even told him na magtaas na siya, kasi deserve niya yun. So, to all future brides looking for a host, I’ll just leave this here.

One month before our big day, unfortunately our original MC had to pull out. We had to scramble to find a new host, and luckily with the help from The Wedding Project, we were able to secure the services of Stephen. What initially set him apart from the rest was the professionalism of his portfolio and his excellent presentation of a variety of different events and to different crowds, showcasing his versatility. We had an international wedding with a big mix of people so having someone like Stephen was a must.
During the planning stages, Stephen came with a well structured program and we were able to modify it easily to match our needs as well as with the rest of the suppliers. He was also able to incorporate some surprises for us from our family as well as some last minute changes for us. Communication was easily done via Viber and Zoom as we are based in Singapore.
Our venue was the Conservatory at the Peninsula, for an intimate wedding reception with many international guests. During our day, the overall program went very well, Stephen was able to control the tempo and gauge the energy level of the crowd to really give a very good performance. Laughs, tears, excitement, gratitude and cheers were all covered! The surprise pieces into the program were wonderfully executed. Stephen’s background staff were also flawless in their execution and coordination with the other suppliers.
After the formalities, special thanks to DJ Mark for pumping up the crowd for the after party and keeping us going until closing. Honestly don’t really remember much but we were very happy to invite Stephen and the team for some drinks at our bar and to party with us!
Overall 10/10 for Stephen, all the guests young and old loved the program and for a lot of our guests, was their first Filipino wedding so Stephen has really set the bar high for them! We would highly recommend Stephen to host for any kind of event and we would love an opportunity to work with him in the future!

Stephen Tierra is an excellent host. Our guests were all praises on his hosting style. He took the time to get to know our story to make our program more intimate and personalized. He also gave out a very friendly vibe which made us comfortable with him from our very first meeting. If you want your wedding program to have the perfect mix of fun, class and romance, Stephen Tierra is definitely the host for you.

The first time I met Stephen Tierra at the virtual meeting, I knew that Kat and Mike's wedding program will be in good hands. The next time I met Stephen, we were already at THE reception.
Stephen’s brand of hosting certainly was worth our guests' effort, love and time to join Kat and Mike last July 3rd. My 86-year old mother said she thoroughly enjoyed the hosting and was worth her travel from Legazpi to Manila, albeit her age and all the discomforts that go with her territory. The principal sponsors got your contact details - galing daw and kakaiba.
Your wedding feud game brought the house down but the Chandelier sing-off and your warmth to "award" the first place to Tobias displayed your sensitivity to the participants and the crowd. My family will certainly get in touch with you when my parents, God willing, celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary next year. Keep safe and healthy. Until our paths cross again.

Stephen is definitely one of our favourite suppliers. Lahat ng guests na nakausap namin after the wedding, sinasabi ang galing daw ng host namin! Ang nakakatuwa, akala nilang lahat matagal na raw naming kaibigan si Stephen kasi when he talks about us during the program parang ang close raw namin
On the surface natatawa kami sa comment na yun kasi never naman talaga namin nameet si Stephen in person before the wedding. But in hindsight, we realised this truly shows his professionalism and love for his craft — he made sure he is well-prepared for our wedding.
May pinasagutan siya sa amin na couple profile before the wedding, pinakwento niya rin dun yung love story namin as well as our proposal story. Sabi ni hubby, siguro pinag-aralan at binasa niyang mabuti yun kaya talagang para kaming friends on the day of the wedding kung makapagkwento siya. At least alam mong he’s not the kind of host na basta pupunta lang sa kasal tapos bahala na si batman. He prepares for it and makes sure he brings his A-game.
We only had one online meeting with him to discuss the reception program flow, but he was always just a message away whenever we needed anything during preps.
He’s very professional yet so kind and accommodating. Sobrang classy niya rin mag-host and he makes sure everyone is having a good time. Tipong banayad lang pero rock!
And we really appreciated that he volunteered to do our growing up video! We just sent him our photos then siya na gumawa!
He may not be one of the most popular hosts out there, but at the rate he’s going, he’s definitely on his way to becoming one of the best wedding hosts in the country. Having him as our host was one of the best decisions we ever made. We really couldn’t recommend him enough!
