With couples looking for more inventive ways to entertain their guests during their wedding day, there are plenty of wedding entertainment options to choose from these days! Here are just a couple of fun wedding entertainment ideas to ensure your big day is memorable...

Rodeo Bull

For the more daring bride, you could hire a rodeo bull. This is sure to fill the event with laughter and probably some rather interesting photographs! If there is a competitive streak in the wedding party, then why not run a rodeo competition for added interest?

Photobooths

A photo booth is a wonderful way for guests of all ages to have some fun. Most wedding venues and locations will be able to have photo booths. The bride and groom may also get to keep a photo album of all the photographs. Find a photobooth near you. 

Giant Scalextric

One for the big boys in the group is the Giant Scalextric. Due to their being lots of sizes available, most venues will have this put up there. It will provide much fun, laughter and reliving of childhood memories for many of your guests.

Fairground Rides

If space isn't a compromise then what about some fabulous fairground rides? You'll have the fun and nostalgia of a traditional fairground, from helter skelters and teacups to merry-go-rounds and waltzers. Your guests will have a truly unforgettable experience and unlimited rides!

Casino Tables

For some people, fairgrounds and rodeo bulls probably aren't your thing. Why not look at the class of the casino with roulette, blackjack and poker tables instead? The tables are hosted by professional croupiers and guests play with chips bought with fun money.

Giant Outdoor Board Games

If you want to make your day a full family affair incorporating little children as well as 'big kids', then a good old fashioned selection of giant board games is sure to keep everyone entertained. Some of the large selection of games available are giant Jenga, Kerplunk, Snakes & Ladders and, for the more agile, giant Twister.

When booking with your entertainment suppliers, just remember to ask exactly what you'll receive, how long for, and how much it will cost including VAT. If you hire too much entertainment, some may go unused! Pick your favourites and stick with them.
