<\/p>\nWe’ve all been there. The happy couple are getting their photographs taken at another location, you don’t know anyone at the wedding and you’re left twiddling your thumbs in-between the ceremony and reception. Totes awks.<\/p>\n
If you’re planning on having a large gap between your ceremony and the meal, be a dear and spare a thought for your guests who will be left waiting impatiently for your return. There are lots of ways to provide entertainment, so no excuses! These fun-filled ideas will suit all budgets and you can tweak to match the formality of your day.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nothing cures boredom like Happy Hour. A cocktail cart can be as formal or informal as you wish – plus you can even create your very own signature wedding drink. Provide all the tools and ingredients plus a DIY menu guide. The conversation will be flowing in no time.<\/p>\n
Silly sketches = guaranteed giggles. FACT.<\/p>\n
Increasingly popular, this wow factor performance will have your guests chattering all night in amazement. Below are listed magicians on WeddingDates UK.<\/p>\n
If you’re hosting a city chic celebration, research what’s happening in the local area on the day of your wedding. Maybe there’s a funfair in town or a festive Christmas market. If your venue is set in a waterside location, ask if a river cruise can be worked into your package.<\/p>\n
Why wait to get to your venue to start the fun? Get the party started the minute you leave the chapel with some trendy transport for your pals. A traditional English double decker is sure to be a talking point and get the atmosphere pumped.<\/p>\n
This needs no explanation. It’s pretty awesome. Just don’t go mad and hire a whole petting zoo!<\/p>\n
A perfect activity during a winter wedding. On your return from your photo shoot as dark skies close in, gather your group, make a wish and let it be whisked away. Return inside from the chill and indulge in some hot cocoa before being seated for your evening meal.<\/p>\n
Let your personality shine whether it be through your favourite style of music or via a movie theme. A cinema room with loads of plush cushions and gourmet popcorn is sure to be a hit – we all know how draining a wedding can be, so a little mid-afternoon snooze will be more than welcomed.<\/p>\n
Everyone loves a selfie. If you put a social media ban in place during your ceremony, let them blow off steam here. Below are listed photobooth vendors on WeddingDates.<\/p>\n
