What Entertainment to Include at a Wedding Reception
A wedding is a very personal event that usually reflects the tastes and interests of the bride, the groom and their families. The wedding is a great day for celebration and the bride and groom are usually keen to keep their guest entertained throughout the day. No bride wants her guests to look on the day and say that it was boring. Ideas for entertainment at weddings have become more elaborate in recent years and moved beyond the traditional evening disco. Weddings have the potential to have a variety of different entertainment at different stages of the day. Here are some ideas of what to include in yourwedding entertainment.
Ceremony music
People who take a traditional approach to their wedding will often choose organ music for the ceremony. However, many more options are available. Everything from string quartets to a harp player can be used for the wedding ceremony. Some people prefer to add a modern touch to their ceremony by having their favorite song played by a live band.
Evening music
The disco is always a popular choice and is great for getting your guests up dancing, but this style of music is not to everybody's taste. A live jazz band or rock group is much more the style of many a bride and groom. The choice of music available is endless and comes down to the personal preferences of the couple.
Children's entertainment
A wedding is a long day that often has gaps between the different stages; the ceremony, the reception and the evening event. This can be tiresome for children and they become bored and difficult. Many couples opt to provide separate entertainment for children to deal with this problem. There are many different options available. These include bouncy castles, magicians or a professional children's entertainer.
Evening entertainment
To break up the evening and add a little extra interest and excitement to the event, some couples choose to have more than music as the entertainment at their weddings. There is a vast number of options available in terms of entertainment for a wedding. Circus acts, theme specific entertainers, comedians and dancers are just some of the options available.
Conclusion
If you want to add extra entertainment to your wedding, there are many different options to choose from in terms of music, entertainment and keeping younger guests entertained. Ask friends, do Internet searches and seek the advice of planners to find all the different options available in your area and that are within your budget.
