Wedding Reception tips to make it fun in NM

Your wedding ceremony is bound to be a river of emotions – but your wedding reception should be nothing less than absolutely FUN. It should be a big party you throw to celebrate your love story – and it should help guests create the kind of memories they will never forget.

What are the best tips to help you make your wedding reception feel incredibly entertaining and memorable?

·       Make sure your wedding speeches and toasts aren’t too long. The shorter they are, the sweeter they are. It’s not that your guests don’t want to hear out these candid words, it’s just that too much of this moment and extending it for far too long into the reception will most likely bore out a lot of people – and that’s the last way you want your wedding reception to start.

·       Mix up your wedding First Dance. This is an ultra-romantic moment – but it doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to “break it” into a fun, entertaining moment for your guests to enjoy. Mix up different songs you and your loved one like and make this a mini-story – people will absolutely enjoy it!

·       Mix up your wedding music too. Speaking of mixes, it is very important to make sure your wedding DJ and/or band can play different songs and different genres at your wedding. This is crucial because your guests are very different, so they are more than likely triggered to dance by different types of music. Including as many genres and musical decades is, thus, something you absolutely must make sure of!

·       Bring in a little extra too. Have you considered hiring someone else, other than your DJ and/or band? There’s a ton of options out there! A caricaturist, a chef to live-cook food in front of your guests, a food truck to delight them with a late night snack, a fire acrobat, a magician (for the little ones) – there’s really something for every couple’s tastes. Bring in an extra-entertainer and you will not regret it!
