Unusual Wedding Entertainment - Say It With Verse

What are you going to do at your wedding to entertain your guests? We've decided on a string quartet, followed by a DJ, but plenty of people choose to throw in all sorts of wedding entertainment, from magicians to caricaturists. David Walliams even had synchronised swimmers {be warned, they're pricey!}. If you're looking for something more original, why not say it with verse, via Noel Dollimore, The Wedding Sonneteer. You can hire him for your wedding where he works in costume, mingling with your guests, and delighting them with romantic poetry. Such a fantastic idea for a literary-themed wedding, or just as a surprise for your groom!

Interesting Additions

Wedding receptions can become a little predictable - the drunken uncle in the corner, the bridesmaids making a den under the top table, the ushers trying to do the Moonwalk.  Bring back a bit of brilliance to your big day with a few of these ideas, starting with a personalised picture booth.  Add a fancy dress box (fake moustaches, plastic lobsters) and you'll have them queuing out the door.

Give flagging guests a sugar rush with sweet treats like ice-cream and candy-floss trikes, plus the ever-popular chocolate fountains from Ideas Box.
