Reception Ideas

Definitely a photo booth, they are so much fun!

We’re having a caricature artist come! And yard games outside! If your having a guest book that could go by the card/present table?

I would focus on the basics - good music, good food, good drinks. As a guest I would prefer that over trendy stuff.


My BIL had a champagne wall as we exited the ceremony, which you sipped on your way to the reception...I really liked that!

Guests want to interact with the dance floor But a picture table with either frames or albums is also another idea if you really want something. People always love photos of the couples as kids and the older generation just loves all pictures, Lol.

I’m thinking about doing a game table. My fiancé and I play a lot of board games so, I thought it would be a cool way to show a part of us in the wedding. The table sign could say “tired of dancing? Grab a friend and play a game”

My fiancé and I are having a snow cone booth at our cocktail hour and there will be lawn games. We also had a neon light made with a line from our first dance song. Not sure if we’re going to have it hung behind our sweethearts table or as part of the background for the photo booth. Oh one more thing, my cousins have a Irish step dancing studio, so every wedding in my family always has Irish dancers preform during the reception.

Don't over think it . People will be quite happy to sit and visit or dance. I don't understand going to a reception and playing Yahtzee or scrabble, lol. And I like board games.
