[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We\u2019ve all noticed that destination wedding<\/a> entertainments have changed and evolved over time. Entertainments are sometimes what makes a destination wedding<\/a> unique for its guests.
\nGood entertainment will not only make your guests amused throughout the reception<\/a>, but will also act as an essential icebreaker. You may be likely to have guests who are not familiar with others guests in attendance, so putting out activities<\/a> will encourage your friends and family to mingle and get to know each other a little bit. But one thing is always problematic: how can you make sure you find the perfect entertainment for all the different types of personalities, without going for stale options?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019ve prepared a list of our favorite destination wedding<\/a> entertainment ideas that we think elevate your wedding to the next level.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

First off and obviously a live band<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many newly wedded couples choose to incorporate live music into their wedding reception in order to make their guests feel like they\u2019re at a concert! Try and mix it up by picking a band or genre that veers from the standard wedding music \u2013 you may want to opt for a vintage jazz band or a retro funk group for a wedding in France<\/a> for example. Keep in mind that music can be coordinated with your theme<\/a>, that way it will perfectly complement the different outfits, decorations, and overall, the style.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What about a personal DJ or saxophonist?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Offer the possibility for your guests to discover the best of both worlds with renditions of their favorite songs, enhanced by a live element. A saxophonist could be the perfect contrast, his performance will add a funky, soulful vibe to your favorite tunes, you may also want to add in some percussion, vocals, or other brass instruments to bring it more energy to the typical DJ\u2019s set. If it possible, try and coordinate the live addition to your desired theme \u2013 an electric guitarist would suit an industrial-chic destination wedding as an entertainment for example.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Or even a pianist?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Classic, and oh-so romantic. A pianist will add a luxurious element to your fancy affair, whether you\u2019re aiming for a fairytale wedding in France<\/a> theme or a funky and chic wedding night in Paris. You can have the pianist provide background music for a cocktail hour or your romantic first dance. For a more upbeat reception twist, opt for an unexpected rock keyboardist to shake up the crowd.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Funny and memorable caricatures<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the couples that enjoy art, hiring a reception caricature artist is the perfect destination wedding<\/a> entertainment idea. With an easy set up<\/a> a station for the artist to draw while being away from the commotion of the dance floor that will also double as a break area for your guests. Caricatures are funny and memorable, as an easygoing activity it will also serve as a customized wedding favor \u2013 feel creative with custom border including the couple names and the date and why not even offer digital downloads\u00a0?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Astonishing acrobats<\/strong><\/p>\n

Suspended aerialists and breathtaking contortionists are live performers that will improve the atmosphere of any wedding. Use the tall ceilings in your reception space for aerial silks or hoops or hire acrobats for example. Your friends and family will want to take pictures throughout the day.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What about a scavenger hunt<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

By planning a pictural scavenger hunt you might encourage your guests to mingle with others they may not know for a \u201cnew friends selfie\u201d or take a photo of their favorite centerpiece at the reception, of course everyone can follow along with the dedicated destination wedding<\/a> hashtag. If kids are present, try to include them perhaps in a candy scavenger hunt for example. Also, be sure to limit this game to the reception only so your guests aren\u2019t distracted and snapping photos during your ceremony.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

An elegant cigar bar<\/strong><\/p>\n

Infuse your reception with a touch of old-school elegant class<\/a> in the form of a worthy cigar bar. Also, be sure to stock the bar with a variety of flavors and blends so that your guests find their preferences. If your wedding is a wedding in Paris<\/a>, try and coordinate the different flavors to the typical flavors that you may find in France. Why not as an added bonus, hire a cigar-friendly bartender to advise your friends and family on the best cocktails to pair with their cigar?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

S\u2019mores and more<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Spread s\u2019more love at your reception<\/a>, we\u2019re sure that kids are going to enjoy this activity! Cue the campfire and welcome in your guests of all ages with warm blankets and sweet treats \u2014 but not too sweet as we all know how kids react to sugar! This activity is the best suited for a late fall or winter destination wedding<\/a>. Making s\u2019mores over a cozy fire will assure the perfect relaxing reception activity.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The unmissable magician<\/strong><\/p>\n

Add a mysterious touch to your special day with a magical performance. A magician will be able to break the ice between the destination wedding<\/a> dinner differently than jumping right into an energetic DJ. The right magician will be able to mix up their act and props to match the theme of your wedding. He will always be the most surprising for the little ones.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Colouring<\/b>\u00a0booth<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another way of making a bright statement is by incorporating the comeback of coloring books into your wedding day. Keep varying levels of difficulty for the kids \u2013 and adults \u2013 could be putting their artistic skills to the test. Also, offer pre-made destination wedding coloring books or make a custom coloring book inspired by photos taken throughout your relationship.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fun balloon darts<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Opt for a balloon dart board with a DIY paint balloon dart board. The game is cost-effective, as it is very simple to organize and extremely fun to play, this activity will create a beautiful, whimsical splatter or with a daring modern art that you can treasure forever.Tack vibrant balloons filled with assorted paints \u2013 perhaps matching the color scheme of your destination wedding<\/a> theme\u2013 to your board.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a1 Una Pinata !<\/strong><\/p>\n

Consider the wedding cake as your pi\u00f1ata and instead of cutting it traditionally why not smash it? Who would want cake splattered all over them when you can take any wedding stress out on a pi\u00f1ata? Obviously, it won\u2019t be filled with rich cake or creamy frosting, this work of art will look almost good enough to eat. Pick a design that fits your theme and fill it with candy and other small items, like confetti poppers to please the littles ones or tiny bottles of alcohol for the adults.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The famous dance battles<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ask your bridesmaids to start off with a friendly amusing rivalry between the bride and groom\u2019s families with a themed dance-off. If there is a dance floor, you\u2019ll just need a little coordination and planning in advance as each side comes together to fight by showing their dance moves off. This activity will give everyone a good laugh as we are sure for it to be an event that all will enjoy.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid grid_id=”vc_gid:1611845927385-61332906-fc40-5″ include=”4762,4765,4766″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Breathtaking Fireworks<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Take your guests breath away with a stunning firework display<\/a>. Throughout the ceremony or during your grand entrance or first dance \u2013 or send everyone off with a bang at the end of the night, whenever you decide to put the fireworks out, we assure you it will be a memorable moment that all will talk about after the destination wedding. Options can differ from smaller sparklers to a full-on extravaganza, so take your budget and venue limitations\/theme into account when deciding. If your destination wedding<\/a> is a wedding in Paris<\/a> or a wedding in France<\/a>, try and look up for different castles<\/a> that you may rent, as for the fireworks they will beautifully fit in with the location<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The shoe game<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are many ways for the guests to get to know the couple and one of them is during the shoe game. No added expenses are needed as the newlyweds sit back-to-back and answers each question by raising a shoe \u2013 either the bride\u2019s or the groom\u2019s. The trick to this game is to have someone a list of at least 20 to 30 silly questions that won\u2019t get too personal. You can also include suggestions from your guests by having them submit a question when they initially RSVP.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Comedians<\/strong><\/p>\n

Set your destination wedding<\/a> apart and allow your friends and family members what they actually want \u2013 to be truly entertained. Get the crowd roaring with laughter with comedians and especially weddings in France<\/a> where humor is very important. Whether during or after dinner, this will set the tone for the rest of the evening. Also, make sure you set boundaries with the artist before they go on stage, for example if you want to avoid certain topics.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Astonishing fire dancers<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Light up the night with extravagant fire dancers! Turn down the lights and captivate the audience attention with spinning torches accompanied by booming drums \u2013 either live or pre-recorded drums. When it comes to jaw-dropping destination wedding<\/a> entertainment ideas, this is one of our favorite ways to impress your guests as we assure you it will.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As it isn\u2019t easy to decide on the perfect entertainment or activity for your destination wedding<\/a> reception day, pick something that will complement your theme and that will add to the overall ambiance. If you cannot decide on one, narrow it down to a handful that are manageable budget wise and spatially as you have a unique venue space. Whatever option you choose, ensure the entertainment is enjoyable and that it will help your wedding in Paris\/France<\/a> reception stand out in your guests\u2019 memory for the years to come.<\/p>\n
