A person’s wedding day is often said to be one of the most
important days of their life. It’s a day you spend with the people you love the
most, celebrating the fact that you’ve finally found your very own soul mate.
When it comes to our wedding, it’s no surprise that we want
it to be as memorable for our guests as it is for us and with this in mind, a
lot of planning and deliberation often goes into the reception. We’re all
familiar with the customary ‘dinner then dancing’ routine, but what if you’re
someone who wants to experiment with the natural order of things? Below, we’ve
listed five ideas on how to plan a wedding reception that people will be
talking about for years to come.
Have a photo
booth
What better way to create lasting wedding memories than to
have a photo booth at your reception? Although many of us have the ability to
take quality photos using our phones, there’s something about having a
print-out that you can take home and cherish forever. To make things really
fun, you could even have a box of props for people to dress up with!
Outdoor
games
If you’re having a summer wedding, why not make the most of
the outdoors and turn your reception into a mini festival or fairground? We all
love any excuse to revert back to the simpler days of childhood, and outdoor
games are a great way to do this. So, whether you want to set up giant games of
chess and Twister, or you want to go the whole hog and hire out some rides and
a bouncy castle, your fun-filled wedding is bound to be a hit with all your
guests.
Hold an
awards ceremony
This is a great way to get your guests involved in your big
day and is also a perfect interlude between speeches. Feel free to be as
creative with the categories as you want and be sure to purchase some mini
trophies or medals to hand out to the winners.
Hire a
makeup artist
Whether you’d like a face painting booth for your younger
guests, or a stall where adults can get glittered up for the evening ahead, a
professional makeup artist is a great addition to any party. Again, this is a
great way to give your wedding reception that festival feel, so get researching
to find a professional that really ticks all your boxes.
Have an
entertainer
From dancers and magicians to impersonators and tarot card
readers, there is an impressively wide range of entertainers out there just
waiting for the opportunity to perform at your wedding. Find an entertainer
that strikes your fancy and give your wedding reception that extra bit of
sparkle.
If you’re looking for an entertainer to complete
your wedding day, look no further than Milborrow Chimney Sweeps. Our chimney
