Modern Wedding Posted: June 1, 2019

Fire Dancers…

The newlyweds won’t be the only hot pair on the big day! Fire dancers are a great way to thrill and impress your family and friends with their amazing skills and performance.

Bali Fire Dancers

Carnival Act…

Nothing screams fun more than a circus themed celebration. Complete with acrobats and circus performers of course! If you really want to up the ante on the theme, consider hiring a carousel or a fairy floss station to really bring your vision to life.

Caricaturist…

Guests will love this non-traditional take on a photographer, not only will they be capturing those priceless moments, but guests will be given memorable keepsakes to take home and remember the day forever. Another take on this idea is a live painter.

Cocktails Carts…

Whether you and your partner have chosen a signature cocktail for the day, or simply love getting fancy with your drinks; consider hiring a cocktail cart to provide all your guests with some tasty elixirs. This is also a great way to teach them a thing or two about putting together the ultimate beverage.

Gathering Events

 

Karaoke…

If you save this one for later in the night, you’re bound to get everyone involved belting out those ballads! Consider choosing one of these loved up songs or something a little more retro.

Fireworks…

Is there really a better way to end the night than with fireworks? Not only will fireworks surprise your guests, they also serve as a romantic finale for what will be the perfect day. If fireworks aren’t your vibe, fire writing you and your partner’s names in the sky is another way to leave your guests talking.

Wish Lanterns…

Not only are wish lanterns a beautiful way to light up the night sky, but also a fun way for guests to offer up good wishes for your relationship.

Wedding Exits

 

Games…

Games are a great idea at an outdoor wedding. They are also a great way to keep children entertained throughout the day, as well a lot of fun for the big kids! We love the idea of a giant Jenga, Connect Four, Tic Tac Toe or Chess board. These are also a great way to keep guests entertained whilst the bridal party is off taking photos after the wedding ceremony.
