1. Interactive Photo Booth

A photo booth is always a hit at any wedding reception. Your guests will leave with unforgettable memories of that moment creating fun photos with friends and family. You can bring an extra touch of originality and interactivity by installing a photo booth equipped with fun accessories, such as hats, glasses, mustaches and themed backgrounds, which will adapt to the style of your event. You can also try a unique photo booth, such as a 360-degree angle, slow motion film, or green screen. Another option is to create a DIY version with a fun background or frame.

2. Unique dances

Passionate rhythms always find their place during a wedding in the magical atmosphere created by a couple of professional dancers. With the floor vibrating under their synchronized steps, guests will be instantly captivated and tempted to join them on the dance floor. A pair of expert dancers can transform the atmosphere of any event, whether it’s the graceful rhythms of the Viennese waltz, the passion of the Argentine tango or the Verva Quick Step. Not only will they attract all eyes, but they will arouse in the souls of the guests the desire to get up from the tables and join them on a journey full of elegance and passion. At the end of the evening the best ones will leave home not only with memories, but also with a few more dance steps in their wealth of experiences.

Alternatively you can capture invitations with specially prepared choreographers from weddings or bridesmaids. A well-elaborated and energetic choreography will delight and surely impress all the guests, creating unforgettable memories for the brides and all those present.

3. Games and competitions

During the reception, introducing interactive games and contests can be a great way to keep the atmosphere fun and lively. Various games can be organized for couples, guests or even for the entire table, which involve the active participation of everyone. For example, you can host a couple quiz, where guests have to answer questions about the bride and participate in a fun dance competition. You can also find creative ideas for themed games or improvisation competitions, which will enhance the talent and personality of the guests. Such activities will not only delight and entertain, but will also create unforgettable bonds and memories for everyone present at the event. Here are some ideas:

Each meal will be named after a famous song, and when that song starts playing, those invited to that table will be encouraged to get up and dance. At the end of the evening, the couple will announce the winning meal, based on their energy and dancing spirit.

This game consists of placing two chairs one behind the other, on which the bride and groom will sit. It’s known as the «shoe game» because, traditionally, brides exchange a shoe, which they raise in the air when asked questions. However, if you are not comfortable being barefoot, you can choose to use any other item.

After the bride and groom settle in, each guest will ask them a question, such as «Who said I love you first?» If the groom was the first to say «I love you» first, then both will lift the bride’s shoe.

Here are some examples of questions:

-Who took the first step when you met?

-Who is more romantic?

-Who talks more?

-Who is more angry?

-Who spends the most money?

-Cinema of?

And so on.

• The hand of the bride, the hand of the bride

The faces are placed in a row, with hands outstretched, and between them is the bride. The groom, with his eyes bound, is challenged to identify his bride’s hand. Once he manages to identify her, the boys sit in a circle and the bride has to try to recognize the bride.

4. Karaoke

Karaoke is a fantastic choice to liven up the atmosphere of your wedding. Guests will have the most fun with the chance to perform their favorite songs and showcase their vocal talents on the event stage.
