Jasmin Wölke moderates galas, award ceremonies and anniversaries in Münster in English and German. She hosts festive evenings at the Erbdrostenhof, the Factory Hotel or Halle Münsterland, with dignity for the honourees and pace for the room.
A city with practice in ceremonial occasions
Münster is the city of the Peace of Westphalia of 1648: representation has tradition here, and the audience knows the difference between festive and stiff. The Erbdrostenhof lends an evening baroque splendour, the Factory Hotel on the former brewery grounds adds industrial character, and Halle Münsterland offers space for large parties. For receptions, the LWL museum on the Domplatz or, within a ceremonial protocol, the Friedenssaal open their doors as well. Each of these venues demands its own tone. Jasmin visits the room beforehand and adapts language, pace and pauses to space and occasion.
Honours that deserve the name
The core of almost every gala is people being honoured: award winners, long-serving employees, teams after a major project. Nothing devalues such a moment faster than a mispronounced name or an interchangeable transition into the laudation. Before the evening, Jasmin collects the story behind every honour, practises the pronunciation and builds the sequence so the arc of suspense carries through to the last award. At the Leadership Excellence Awards, a corporate reference with 250 guests and ten honours, she gave every single award its own moment, and the evening still finished on schedule.
Dramaturgy between menu, speeches and music
A gala evening has many pacemakers: the kitchen, the band, the management speeches, the programme. Jasmin aligns with venue, crew and kitchen in advance and keeps transitions short enough that no course goes cold and no speech lands in the dessert. She also advises on the sequence: which speech works before dinner, which honour needs the room's full attention, when may the dance floor open? What works in which order is laid out in the guide gala running order and programme. The format overview is on the hub gala moderator; all pages for the city are bundled on the Münster city page.
