There are so many fun things to do during a wedding reception to keep your guests entertained. Some guests don’t enjoy dancing and are looking for other forms of entertainment. Receptions can be become routine and boring (a.k.a snoozefest); but you can make it fun!
One of our couples and their bridal danced to Thriller by Michael Jackson; it was unexpected and guests loved it. The couple and bridal party also had a great time!
Another couple played the shoe game; which was fun and allowed the guests to know a bit more about the couple

Other fun ideas include having a cool photo booth with props, lawn games during cocktail hour, a poet to perform, hiring an artist to draw silhouettes for guests or a live event artist, playing a game to give out the centerpiece on each table, hiring a celerbity impersonator, placing a picture jigsaw puzzle on each table for guests to figure out, finishing the reception with a bang (sparklers, fireworks, chinese lanterns, balloons etc.), having a tasting during cocktail hour for guests (cheese, cocktails, wine etc.), having a non-traditional first dance; the list is endless!
Remember the key thing is to PLAN for it! Don’t overthink, just have fun and all everyone will have a great time!
