Everyone is all about incorporating nostalgia to their lives these days, so entertainment like this would not only go down a storm but provide great pictures for the album! DIY STATIONS DIY stands at weddings have seen a popularity spike, as more couples are trying to get their guests involved in the big day. If you’re looking to add DIY bars, then there are plenty of ideas to play around with. Build-your-own cocktail stations have been incredibly popular over the previous years, as they enable guests to jazz up their drinks; add a drink topper designed with your wedding logo, edible glitter/flowers, fun colours and lots of other things too. It’s a great talking point and an opportunity to test their creativity! On this creative note, couples have also offered chances for guests to craft things on the wedding day, such as wreath making, tattoo bars and pottery painting! All of which can be well-catered to suit your guests and their personal flair. To bring the festival vibe to your special day, consider glitter bars! They’re super fun and could be personalised to your wedding colour scheme – I’m sure this could turn quite comical when the drinks have been flowing. GAME TABLES There has been a notable rise in people falling back in love with board games, card games, and everything in-between! I’m a big fan of card games and will always bring one or two with me when I travel or see friends. This can be easily incorporated into your wedding day through a games table; and could include casino-style game tables, Mr and Mrs battles, a pub quiz, and any other boardgames that speak to you. This style of wedding entertainment is another great chance for you to add personal flair and show off ways you and your partner like to have fun.
