As for putting a microphone by the speaker, consider a wireless lavalier
mike. Not cheap for a decent one though. If you know what one looks like
and watch closely you'll see that almost every talk show uses that
solution
these days. Check the battery life, make sure that it's long enough or
that there will be someone there with a stopwatch to change batteries
before they die.


At work we use Shure lavalier mics and they are great. The tiniest little
microphones you have ever seen. The have a little pack that the speaker
wears clipped to clothing, that transmits the audio to our recording gear.
The batteries last quite a while, we can get several days use out of them
(actually a 9V battery IIRC).
