1- Dance differently

Everybody is familiar with wedding dances that start with those romantic and slow songs. Thus, to make your wedding reception dance a surprise try to go beyond the ordinary slow dances and dance differently with your love.

2- Don’t forget kids

Your little guests should also be entertained to the fullest extent and to reach this goal you have to have a plan for them too. For example, arrange movies or games corners for them to give their parents the chance to enjoy the reception.

3- Dove release

As white doves symbolize prosperity, love, peace and unity releasing two white doves in your wedding reception would be a kind of fun; especially that it is not something we do every day. Don’t forget to decorate their basket in your wedding ceremony theme.

4- Ice Cream Tricycle

If you are looking for a way to blow away your wedding guests add ice cream tricycles to your wedding reception plan. It would be even funnier if you and your partner are the ones who are going to serve guests mouth-watering ice cream otherwise hire someone to do that.

5- Jazz Band

If you are not on a budget and you can afford hiring a jazz band instead of DJs that would be great. Because having a live music and real musicians at your wedding reception is going to give the ceremony funny and different vibes.

6- DIY Cocktails

Setting up a DIY cocktails bar for your wedding reception is one of the most stunning ideas you can choose to add that amazing spin to your wedding reception. You only need to be careful as they should be delicious!

7- Bring a magician

Booking a talented magician is a wonderful idea to keep your guests entertained and to make your wedding ceremony stand out from the crowd; especially that not all couples dare to book a magician to their ceremony.

8- Wedding Favors

Your wedding ceremony wouldn’t be a special occasion without the presence of your beloved guests; your friends and family members; that is why you have to appreciate the time they dedicate to be with you by offering them favors like sweet smelling soaps, fancy cups or personalized jam.

9- Candy Sweets buffet

Your wedding candy sweets station will be a real source of fun and entertainment; especially if you ask for the help of the Fondly’s consultants who can help you with the right ideas and design for the buffets so that it goes hand in hand with your wedding theme.

13- Play energetic music

Do talk to your band or DJ before your wedding ceremony so that you can together choose an energetic music which will invite everybody to hit the dance floor.

14-Guest Transportation

Using a hot air balloon ride or sweetly decorated bicycles would be an intelligent and funny way to shuttle your guests from the ceremony to the wedding reception. Thus, if you can afford it don’t hesitate to add it to your wedding reception plan.

15- Thank you sign

At the exit of your wedding reception try to leave an aesthetically sweet thank you sign to thank your guests for being present to celebrate your big day; especially that couples sometimes don’t get a chance to say goodbye to everyone in their wedding.
