Unique Ideas For Wedding Entertainment
Sure, everyone has a band or a d.j. at their wedding, but why stop there? If you really want to wow your guests, think outside the box, and provide some fun and different entertainment which will set your wedding apart, play up your theme, or just plan make for a great party experience. To get you started, check out these unique ideas for wedding entertainment.
Adding special details to a wedding is a fantastic way to give it a personality all its own. As every bride knows, the custom bridal jewelry or artisan designed invitations will make her wedding one-of-a-kind. The entertainment is no exception to this rule. Let’s say you were having a tropical theme wedding, with a flowy bridal gown and custom beach wedding jewelry. Think beyond the steel drum band or Don Ho music, and treat your guests to a spectacular show they are not likely to forget. Firedancing with a Polynesian flair would be a dramatic addition to an outdoor evening wedding. Having a daytime tropical wedding? Why not incorporate some lovely hula dancers? Make it even more fun by having the dancers offer group lessons at the end of their performance so that your guests can give the hula a try.
The cocktail hour at your reception would be a wonderful place to treat your guests to something fun and different. Think about ways in which the entertainment will surprise and delight them. If it can tie in with your theme, even better. Ice sculptures have been quite popular in recent years, especially those which feature the bride and groom’s initial or have some other modern flair. Instead of simply having the ice already done and on display, one neat idea would be to have an ice carving demonstration right there at the cocktail hour. Just keep in mind that large sculptures can be time consuming (and noisy in the early stages, thanks to chain saws!), so work with the ice artist to come up with a feasible design for the time you have allotted, such as putting the finishing touches on an ice sculpture which was roughly formed before the cocktail hour began.
Certainly music is a wonderful way to set the mood at a wedding reception. If you or your fiance come from a cultural background which has a heritage of music, why not showcase it at your reception? A Mariachi band would be a fun addition to the dinner hour if the newlyweds have Mexican heritage. If you ancestors hailed from Italy, have several violinists wander through the cocktail hour or the dinner portion of the reception. Or honor your Scottish background with a bagpiper announcing your grand entrance to the party instead of just the bandleader. For a wedding with a Celtic theme, let a line of Riverdancers enchant your guests with their steps. In fact, any of these musical additions would be wonderful for a wedding even if the couple did not come from those cultural tradition.
There are many other inventive ideas for exciting wedding entertainment. You could have belly dancers or a traditional Chinese dragon performance. Hire a magician to entertain your youngest guests if you will have a lot of kids at your wedding. The possibilities are nearly limitless, and the best part is that you can tailor your special show to fit your own interests and wedding theme.
