How to Level Up the Wedding Guest Experience with these 5 Tips!

5 Tips on creating the most fun and amazing wedding guest experience

You have certainly been to a few weddings by now, and you are probably aware of the things that you personally liked, didn’t like, or worse - made you bored. Now, when you are planning your own special day, finding the best ideas to level up the wedding guest experience might prove to be challenging. No fear! I am all about the best hacks to create a fun and memorable affair, so below I have listed 5 awesome tips to wow your guests!

  1. Additional seating options

Every now and then, guests like to catch a breather, unwind or simply chat with others. So, providing these extra seating options like lounge areas will definitely give you points for comfort and entertainment. You take things up a notch by having a bar next to it with signature cocktails!

2. The Photo booth

When it comes to the entertainment, besides the dancefloor and band, this is your ace of spades! Anyone who knows me knows I can’t keep myself out of a good photo booth.  Nothing compares to the fun of having a stylish photo booth at your wedding. Plus, your guests will share those snaps under your creative hashtag, so that means - more memories for you too. This does NOT need to be your local mall photo booth either (though those are fun too!)- Here are some of my favorite outside-the-box photo booth ideas:

3. Escort cards that double as something else

One of the best wedding guests tips is doubling items on your celebration. This can be usually achieved with escort cards - they can serve as gifts, starters, toasts, and even decor! Take a look at these creative ideas on how to pull off everything flawlessly.

4. Entertainment

There’s nothing like live music to make the party great. But a fab dance band can be pricey and doesn’t always fit in everyone’s budget.  I firmly believe that a GREAT DJ is better than an mediocre band.  An even fresher way to bring in live music without breaking the bank?  Consider a band/DJ hybrid act like Fun Sauce combines the energy of live music with the non-stop party music of a DJ or a DJ/Percussionist like DJ Ravi Drums

5. Welcome gifts or favors

 Showing your appreciation symbolically never gets old, trust me. Basically, the trick is in giving something they like. So think about it, what do we all like? Food or something we can use afterward. The safest option is to go with snacks or chic edible dessert favors.

 

Focusing on the wedding guest experience will show your appreciation and thankfulness for all those who have come to celebrate this new epic chapter. Need more expert advice and fun ideas for a one-of-a-kind experience? Just shoot me an email and let’s chat!
