d lots of wedding planning tips and recommended wedding suppliers!

1. Singing Waiters - Imagine this: your guests are casually enjoying

2. A Live Wedding Painter - Forget just capturing the moment, have it painted in real-time!

A live artist will create a stunning keepsake of your big day as it happens, while guests watch the masterpiece come to life.

Best for: A creative, elegant touch and a piece of wedding art to treasure forever.

3. Caricature Artist - Give your guests a hilarious, personalised

keepsake with a live caricaturist sketching them throughout the

evening. Whether flattering or questionably exaggerated, it’s all in

good fun!

Best for: Lighthearted laughs and a quirky alternative to traditional

favours.

4. A Silent Disco - Two words: absolute chaos!

Guests pop on wireless headphones and switch between different music channels.

One group could be raving to club classics, while the other is slow-

dancing to Ed Sheeran. From the outside? Total silence, apart from

off-key singing and questionable dance moves!

Best for: Couples who love music but want to keep the party going

past noise curfews!

5. Magician or Mind Reader - Wedding guests LOVE a bit of

close-up magic. A magician strolling between tables or a mind

reader leaving people speechless adds instant wow-factor and

keeps guests entertained between courses.

Best for: That “how on earth did they do that?!” moment.

6. Fire Performers - Take your evening reception to the next level

with fire breathers, poi spinners, or even LED dancers. Watching

someone literally play with fire while sipping champagne?

Unforgettable.

Best for: Couples who want something dramatic, daring, and

different!

7. Interactive Cocktail or DIY Gin Bar - Instead of a standard bar,

let guests mix their own signature cocktails with fun ingredients or

build their perfect gin & tonic from a DIY gin station. Bonus points

for cute personalised recipe cards!

Best for: Fun-loving foodies and couples who love a good drink!

8. Retro Arcade Games & Giant Jenga - Bring out your guests’

inner child with a retro games corner! Think Pac-Man, Mario

Kart battles, air hockey, or even a giant Jenga showdown. The

competition gets real after a few drinks!

Best for: Couples who want an epic alternative to just dancing.

9. Surprise Flash Mob - Picture this: You’re in the middle of your

first dance when suddenly, your bridal party joins in with a full-on

choreographed routine! Bonus points if granny gets involved!

Best for: High-energy couples who love a good TikTok dance

trend!

10. Petting Zoo or Alpaca Ring Bearers - Why not have adorable

furry guests at your wedding? Some venues offer petting zoos, or

if you really want to wow your guests, have alpacas as ring bearers

(yes, this is a real thing, and yes, it’s as cute as it sounds).

Best for: Animal lovers who want their wedding to be cuteness

overload!

Final Thoughts: Make Your Wedding Unforgettable!

Your wedding should be fun, personal, and 100% YOU, so don’t
