Wedding receptions are lovely affairs with the bride and groom at the center of attention. Here are some ideas for planning a unique wedding reception that no one will be able to forget.
Make the Reception Interactive
You want people to feel like they are a part of your reception, rather than pawns in your production. So why not make the event more information and play a game with your guests. You can do a charades type of thing, trivia about the bride and groom, or just a simple lotto. Winners win a coveted prize such as a television or DVD player.
Give the guests disposable wedding cameras they can use right there and then. They will probably do an even better job than your wedding photographer at capturing candid photos of your other guests in action.
After the wedding is over they will have a group of pictures to serve as a keepsake from your wedding, and you can even request that they get duplicates and send you a copy of each photo. Many photo places have specials for duplicate photos. Ideas for planning a unique wedding reception should be creative and interactive.
Go outside of the box when ordering or designing custom centerpieces. Once you decide on your theme, take the wildest element that could be associated with that wedding theme and use it in your centerpieces.
For example, if you are a nanny, maybe considering a Mary Poppins themed wedding. You can place cute decorated umbrellas on each table or around the reception site. This is only one of many ideas for planning a unique wedding reception. Use your imagination and think outside the box for a truely memorable event.
Hold Your Reception in an Odd Place
You want ideas for planning a unique wedding reception? Start with the venue. Choose a place where no one would ever think to hold their wedding reception. Like the Zoo.
If you are an animal lover, why not have a celebration among animals? Rent an outdoor space at the Zoo to hold your reception. You would most likely be able to coordinate with the zookeepers as far as sanitary procedures, catering, and decorations Being that you are at the zoo, keep with a zoo theme at your wedding reception.
However, ideas for planning a unique wedding reception at the Zoo don't have to compromise the elegance of a wedding. Your guests can still have on formal wear at a wedding. White can be used as your base color with animal prints and leopard designs accenting the décor of your wedding reception.
You are unique in every other way; you don't follow what everyone else is doing. So don't stop at one of the most important days of your life—seek as many ideas for planning a unique wedding reception as possible for your guests.
