Three Easy Ways to Entertain Your Guests

Lituation Photo Booths

As more couples move away from favors and takeaways, they’re focused on creating a memorable experience for their guests with entertainment taking the main stage. Literally.

Instead of hiring one form of entertainment, like a DJ or a band, couples are hiring several different performers to provide a variety throughout the reception. From experiential theater performers (think fire breathers or trapeze artists) and roaming sketch artist or live painters, to tarot card readers, astrologist, and magicians, couples are pulling out all the stops to create an interactive, unforgettable night that reflects who they are.

Many couples can’t imagine planning a wedding without all the little ones in their lives there. Here are a few ways to make sure the little kids at your wedding have just as much fun as the big kids:

Ask the DJ to play a few kid friendly songs that everyone can enjoy Provide kid friendly snacks Kids table with crayons and wedding themed activity booklet Create a kid friendly centerpiece using things that can be played with such as blocks Kids only tent with books and games Consider hiring someone to help watch the kids so their parents can enjoy the festivities Kid friendly wedding favors such as bubbles, glow sticks, or chalk

PHOTO BOOTH

Photo booths are becoming popular at weddings because of their simplicity and appeal to all age groups. They’re also a great alternative to a traditional guest book. You can rent a photo booth or make it yourself, but just make sure that it reflects your style!

Most photo booth rentals come with props, custom designed photo strips, and an attendant. If you’re doing it yourself, incorporate your wedding colors and themes into the booth to bring it all together! Use a chalkboard to write out the instructions in different fonts for a fun carnival wedding, or set up a wall and decorate it with delicate flowers and chairs for a garden wedding.

In order to ensure that people take advantage of the photo booth, lead by example. Hop in there with your new spouse and take some pictures! Your guests will love interacting with you and will make some memories of their own. One way to wow your guests is with fireworks -- and it doesn’t have to be at the end of the reception. Fireworks choreographed with your first kiss as a married couple, or with your pronouncement as husband and wife, are a great way to celebrate your marriage.

A simple sparkler send-off, or a full show at the end of the evening, will be something that your guests will always remember, and it’s a great finale to your wedding.

Be sure to check with your venue and local by-laws to make sure fireworks are something you can do! Hiring a professional can make it easier to obtain the proper permits and insurance that are required.
