I am having a DJ for the wedding, but i quite liked the idea of having entertainment for people to amuse themselves when they first get to the venue before the meal, i thought a harp player but h2b isnt keen which is ok. But i think we should have something, he however thinks it would be a waste of money which would be better spent on a honeymoon or something. I am just wondering if your having any different types of entertainment and how much it cost, to see if i could get something cheaply :)

we are playing games with our guest so while they are waiting for dinner we are going to play signature bingo. so people will start mingling. during dinner we are going to have trivial pursuit cards and a game i can't remember what its called but you each have a piece of paper, first your wright a sentence on it then pass it on, and the next person has the draw what you wrote folding over the paper so the next person can't see the sentience, the next person writes what they guess the first person rote and then passes it to another drawer till it comes back to the first person and you can have a good giggle at drawings and guesses. then we are playing board games all night!!

Ive seen some card tables that come with a croupier which looks good, and i thought maybe this would be good for the blokes that dont want to dance, but the tables come as a set and are £500 my h2b definatly wont be happy if i book that ha ha!

Im hoping to hire a caricaturist to go round doing portraits of my guests, should serve as a talking point, a bit of fun and a little memento of the day!
I want a caricaturist as well. Have any of you got any quotes for one?

Chuck on some ready made CD's for background music and if you want them to do something before hand chuck some board games out etc. You find most people manage to entertain themselves at a wedding. Most of the ones I have been to we have had a good time without the need of harpists and all the other kind of entertainments they advertise.
CommentAuthorsarahuttley2b-[keera
and if your really set on something like that to cut back the cost try your local collages for music students,theres some really good ones and will be happy at a bit of money,so you get what you want at a fraction of the price.x

Well i would like to have loads of things but h2b thinks its unneccessary and a waste of money and he maybe right i just dont want people to get bored, i went to a wedding a couple of years ago and we were waiting around for 3 hours at the venue before we could eat or anything and there was no entertainment for us and we were all so fed up and bored.

I have booked a magicain - not the kids party type - from 8pm till 10pm and we also have a disco and a live band playing 3 sets. Still carn't decided what to do about the band as you can pay an extra 400 for the pleasure of choosing your own songs for them to play, but given we carn't even decided on a first dance, I'm not sure that would be a good idea. We have also booked a creche for the children, so they will be well entertained!

We may be having a pianist/organist as when we went for a meal at the hotel to try out the food there was one there playing and it created a lovely atmosphere. The manager said to pop in and have a listen as the have different ones, so see who we like and maybe they can play. Think he said they pay them £50 so if we get charged that I don't think its too bad :)
