About

Hello,
My name is Vladimir, and I am an entertainer, MC, comedian, and acting coach. Although I have 9 years of experience and 600 events under my belt, my specialty and passion are weddings.
I started my career as an MC in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and will bring the best from my extensive European experience to the table. Nothing brings me more joy than helping a new couple have the best wedding day possible. We play exclusive games, we laugh, and we cry, but, most importantly, we create lifelong, unique memories. I guarantee the weddings I conduct will break free from the cliché. I work with the DJs and the wedding planners that the couple chooses and enhance the experience of all the wedding guests tenfold. My program is fully customizable, with classy, funny, moving, and good vibes only. I work in English or Russian, depending on your preference. I live in Williamsburg, but I am happy to work all over Virginia.

Unforgettable!

Vladimir was our host 7 years ago and we still remember his smart jokes and nice friendly atmosphere. All our guests felt easy to participate in every contest, our parents talk about that nice guy at our wedding. My husband and I are grateful to have had time to actually talk to each other and to EAT at our wedding. If I plan to get married once more (surely to the same groom) and in America I will definitely ask Vladimir to spend this evening with us! 😄

Vladimir huge thank you for a wonderful wedding reception. I have to say without a doubt the wedding party rests on the host. You handled the task in such a considerate and professional manner that none of our guests noticed any sign of a script. It felt everything was happening by itself. I can’t express how greatful we are. We are so pleased to know that our most important day will be remembered with joyful and positive emotions. Thank you again! You are a wonderful entertainer!

Our wonderful wedding 🤍

I am so happy that the wedding MC was this person! So simple, open, humble but at the same time so much fun! You created a true celebration for us!
Our ceremony and reception were so touching and - again! - thanks to you! All because every word was sincere, honest, spoken from the heart. It could be felt!
I also would like to say that I've been to several weddings that Vladimir ran - and here's the trick! He has an absolutely individual approach to all of them, no templates! Everything came from the heart and each wedding was fresh and unique!
He's always working, always searching for new ideas!
We wish you only the overwhelming success in doing what you love, keep up the creativity! Thank you for the wonderful memories!!! We would have done it again!

Excellent emcee

In my opinion, the wedding MC is the foundation of any wedding. You can have a DJ, a cover band (or not), you can have an exquisite cake or maybe plain vanilla, you can have fireworks but you can do without. All that is not important. Because only the MC can guide your guests through everything you've prepared for them, only he can entertain and make sure nobody gets bored, only he can stop the new father-in-law from giving one more speech. For us, the wedding entertainer was of utmost importance and we didn't want to settle for anything less than amazing. We had been invited to several weddings and watched different MCs: some were straight-up rude to guests, others had dumb activities, while others are not professional MCs at all - just friends of the bride... But amongst them, there was one who didn't make anyone feel out of place, who orchestrated the entire reception with ease and fun, and who could connect with any guest. I give you - Vladimir Sokolov!
We liked Vlad because of the way he carried himself and the way he ran the wedding, with a sense of humor and tact. We have not - for one second - regretted asking him to take care of our wedding. We met in the beginning of all the prep, discussed everything, he answered our questions, worked with others who were involved in the wedding. In the end, we thoroughly enjoyed our wedding that did not miss a beat. Vladimir was on the same wavelength with the guests, offered games that were interesting to us and to the guests. There was a lot of fun and laughter, everybody left happy! 5 stars out of 5!
