DIY  Cocktail Bar

This is an incredibly fun way to get your guests more involved in the evening wedding reception.   Set up a bubbly bar where guests can wander on over to make their own champagne cocktails and Bellini’s – a sure-fire hit with everyone. It’s a creative alternative to serving out simple glasses of bubbly and the perfect ice breaker activity to encourage your guests to mingle.

Song Request RSVP’s

Ask your guests to assist with your wedding music by sending a song request along with their RSVP.   This will save you time creating the ultimate wedding party playlist and it also means there’s no excuse for your guests not to get up and dance during the reception when their fave tune comes on!

Hangover Relief Kits

Video  Guest Box

Instead of a traditional guest book, why not get a little interactive, and instead of written messages, hire a video kiosk so you can watch back all of your nearest and dearest wishing you well in your new chapter.  You could even set up something simple yourself, with an iPad and high quality microphone to save you some £.

DIY  Confetti Bar

Head to an arts and crafts shop for a pre-wedding haul of all things glitter and tissue paper. Guests can head to the confetti bar (set up much like a sweet stall) to create their own little packet of confetti, to either take home with them as a keepsake or to shower the bride and groom at the end of the night.  Another option is to use your confetti packets as a fun photo booth prop to make for some amazing photos!

Party Tent

Hire a tipi for a magical, festival-inspired wedding reception. Whether big and lavish or small and cosy, hiring a tipi is sure to make your wedding all the more atmospheric.  Stun your guests with a beautifully lit tipi and a live band performance! Alternatively, use one for a chill out area and fill it with cosy furnishings and blankets for when feet (and heads) are feeling sore.

‘My Advice’ Coasters

On each table or place setting at your reception, lay out drinks coasters which ask guests to write a little piece of advice or well-wishing for you as a couple. Ask them to drop the coasters into a pot at the end of the night – the great thing is that you get to take them home and read over everyone’s heartfelt messages the day after!

Wedding  Photo

Create an Instagram hashtag, (yourself & your partner’s names, for example), or use an online wedding hashtag generator, so that you can have a nosy at everyone’s snaps the following day!  It’s a great way to capture every single moment of your wedding!

Midnight Snack Pack

The clock strikes midnight and both you and your guests may be feeling the need for a little booster, or a recharge in order to get your second wind for the dance floor!  Serve up some delicious food, and perhaps a zingy, fruity cocktail or a fizzy drink – try mini slider burgers, hog roast, doughnuts, or mini gourmet pizzas. To be extra creative, serve them up in individually wrapped paper bag treats.
