There are loads of things you can do to provide some kind of wedding entertainment for you and your guests. Music, lawn games, magicians are just a few ideas. If you’re looking for guests to keep themselves busy then there are some activities you can look into.
Croquet
The classic English lawn game for the descerning Lady or Gent.
Giant Jenga
Always a winner
Carnival & Fayre Games
Whether its skittles, a coconut shy, can tower, cornhole, bumper cars, buzz wire or mini golf these activites will keep your guests entertained for hours.
bouncy castle
I think this is something every wedding should have, hours of fun, the later in the day the crazier the photos
giant Bubbles
Enough said
tug of war
Bride vs Groom – pick you teams and PULL!
donkey rides
A bit random but I’ve seen it.
Limbo
How low can you go!
sumo suits
Well why hell not?!
professional entertainers
singing waiters
These guys and gals ALWAYS go down a storm, a fantastic way to get everone up and dancing and joining in with your day. Surprise your guests with waiters who will down their trays and start belting out sing-a-long classics, Sweet Caroline da da da, is ever a favourite.
Magicians
Astound your friends and family with up-close-magic. These modern-day wizards will leave you amazed. Tom Rose is incredible.
glitter artist
A bit of a new fad but I like it, works brilliantly for Festival and Ibiza themed weddings
Caricaturists
Book a Caricature artist to sketch some not always complimentary drawings of your friends and family
musicians
Whether its a Jazz Trio, a lone guitarist or a Gospel choir these professionals will enhance the atmosphere and joy on your wedding day. Matt Bee the Cotswold Wedding Guitarist is brilliant and super lovely guy.
