Daytime wedding ideas to keep you, and your guests entertained

Best wedding ideas

What about that lull once your wedding breakfast has finished and you are waiting for the party to get started? Well here are some tips to make sure that your guests are entertained from ceremony to last dance.

We fully get it’s your day, you are the main priority, but how do we keep your guests loving your day just as much as you? If you’re happy, they’re happy and visa versa, right?

Here are a few ideas to keep your guests entertained throughout your wedding day. Nobody wants that ‘dreaded’ wedding lull now do they.

  • Between your ceremony and the meal, why not start a game of beer pong, or ‘go posh’ and try champagne pong.                                        Here are Michelle and Chris doing just that at Bashall Barn, captured by Shane Webber Photography.

N.B. Please make sure you ask venue permission. No really, please ask! We would hate for you to set your heart on it and then the venue not be able to allow it.  Licensing is very strict.

  • If you don’t fancy beer pong, why not try a selfie mirror / musicians / DJ on the terrace / acoustic sax. The list is endless. Think outside the box!
  • Why not entertain you guests with a game of Mr & Mrs between starters and main or main and deserts. This can be done by your best man or DFC host. Pre planned questions with your bride tribe would help

  • Advice cards are a perfect keepsake from your special day. Cards are usually handed out during starters for your guests to write ‘words of wisdom’ or ‘nice memories on’. The cards could then be read out before your speeches if you’ve chosen to end your meal with them, or take them away on honeymoon to reminisce/have a giggle.
  • Have you thought about mixing things up a little? The cake cut doesn’t have to be done before your first dance. You could end your meal on your cake cut or you could cut the cake when you enter into your meal and have it as part of your desert. It’s your day, do what’s best for you and the flow of your day.
  • And what about entertainment whilst you have your wedding pictures? You will most likely be having pictures after your ceremony and after your meal. Keep your guests entertained by adding music to keep the atmosphere going.                                                                                      2 ideas:
    • Summer wedding > Acoustic artist on the lawn
    • Winter wedding > Piano by the fire

Crazy idea:

First dance outside? Go all acoustic, choose your favourite song and take it onto the lawn , just imagine how good that would look as a picture on your wall.

Last but not least. Enjoy your day, if you both are having fun, your guests will to.

Dreaming of the perfect night for your #perfectwed Dreaming of the perfect night for your #perfectwedding ? Have you thought about #newyearseve ??? If not we recommend you consider it. We’ve had some of the BEST weddings ever on that special night! Here’s some #weddingtips for your #weddingplanning 

1️⃣-Plan early, get your #weddingvenue & suppliers booked asap! 

2️⃣-Send out those #savethedate cards just as quick! 

3️⃣-Think #glitznglam . New Years Eve is traditionally the night to get dressed to the 9s and party like it’s 1999.

4️⃣-Plan your day with midnight in mind. Work with your DJ or band to bring in NYE with style and one that your guests will remember!

5️⃣-Hire a babysitter for those family and friends with children, you don’t want to be left on the dance alone as the clock chimes 00:00.

6️⃣-Transport & Hotels. Think early for booking accommodation; put on transport for guests staying further a field. 

7️⃣-Order enough #champagne to fill a swimming pool, you’ll need it at midnight. Just don’t forget to provide a bit of h20 as well! No one wants an early finisher. 

8️⃣-Costings, NYE will ultimately cost you more as suppliers and venues normally add on a bank holiday fee. 

9️⃣-Plan your day with a later start time, if you want guests to still be partying hard well after midnight, roll with a lazy morning in preparation for a long night. 

🔟-From experience, NYE is one of the best nights to get married. If you want to have the anniversaries of anniversaries then NYE is the night for you.

Kerry’s #weddingtip 👇🏼

Your wedding day isn't the time to experiment. You want to feel beautiful in your own skin so that when you look in the mirror, you see a polished, radiant and confident version of YOU. 
If you're not a big make up wearer normally, you don't have to pack it on for your wedding day. However, if you love a vintage vibe and love to rock a red lip and a wing, then flippin go for it! 
My goal when pampering my brides is to achieve a beautifully flawless make over that truly reflects their personal style. 
If you do fancy adding a bit of extra flair to your look, why not change your lippy in the evening? It's a really easy way to switch up the glam for when you hit the dancefloor!
