As a wedding photographer I am often one of my clients first bookings as they plan their wedding - so I am often asked -
'Can you think of anything we can add to our day, to make our wedding a more memorable'?
I have included in this blog some of my clients best 'add on's' from Smoke bombs to Magicians... How to make your wedding 'EXTRA'
Smoke bombs...
I am always delighted when my couples request Smoke Bomb pictures... I am happy to source them or use ones bought by my clients to create some beautiful images. Great for wedding party shots as above or to be used during the couple portrait newly-wed images.
Signature Drinks...
Offer a signature cocktail at your reception that represents your relationship and taste. This is a fun way to add personality to your event and give guests something to remember. I have personally seen this at a number of weddings now, and think it’s lovely.
Charlotte & Rene set up a Bar for their signature cocktails and a Cigar Bar! It went down a storm!
Cigar Bar...
I managed to get some awesome shots of Rene & his groomsmen - mid cigar!
Lawn Games...
Ideal for Summer weddings
If your venue has a large grassed area it might be an idea to hire/purchase some lawn games to keep your guests entertained during your drinks reception.
Magician...
Keeping your guests entertained
Hiring a Magician to entertain your guests in the downtime before your evening reception is a great way to keep your guests entertained.
Musicians...
Have live music playing you down the isle or during your drinks reception?
Incorporate your personal interests and hobbies into your wedding to make it unique. For example, if you both love music, consider having live musicians perform at your ceremony or reception.
Singing Waiters...
During your wedding breakfast a great way to liven up your wedding guests is to hire Singing Waiters! It's always a very welcome suprise for guests... Audience participation is a must!
They are a surefire way to get everyone up, singing, dancing, and having a genuinely amazing time!
Ice Cream Cart!
A great treat!
A great treat for your wedding guests in the Summer months woud be to have an icecream van arrive just after the wedding breakfast...
Caricaturist...
After your wedding breakfast your guests may need some entertainment - a Caricaturist is fun and means you have to sit still - Ideal for just after your wedding breakfast!
Photo booth...
Evening entertainment
A great way to entertain your guests in the evening is to hire a photo booth - instant prints for your guests to take a keepsake home from your wedding.
Casino...
During your evening reception a great idea is to hire a 'Casino'!
