Ways to Have Fun at Wedding

Remember how I said "You will have fun if your guests have fun." Don't let yourself be limited by the traditional dancing only rule...although I can't imagine not dancing ;)

Here are some things I will be doing to ensure guests have fun (hopefully they like them.)

1. Photobooth with props instead of guest book. (more on photobooths to come)
2. Popsicles instead of cockatil hour. (the kids will enjoy it too!)
3. Activity sheets for the kids (and kids at heart.) My fiance is in design mode. I will post it when he finishes.
4. Instead of clinking classes, guests must serenade us with a love song for us to smooch. Sure to bring laughter.
5. Board games, coloring pages, and playing cards for those who don't enjoy dancing (or get worn out.)
6. Special dances including one honoring all married couples and a dance contest with us as the judges!

Here are some great ideas suggested by 2000 Dollar Wedding:
1. Cooking S'mores around a campfire
