Making your Wedding Fun and Memorable – Ones Guests will Love

Wedding Games!

Wedding Games!

Your wedding in New Mexico can be a lot of things.

It can be outstandingly beautiful.

It can be sentimental.

It can be trendy.

But most importantly, it should be fun – because, at the end of the day, this is one of your life’s happiest events, and you want all of your guests to share in your joy and create amazing memories.

What are some games and fun entertainment ideas you could definitely incorporate in your New Mexico wedding day? We have some tips for you – continue reading if you want to find out more.

·       Instead of numbering the tables, name them according to a lyric from your favorite songs. When that song comes up, the entire table has to get up and dance. This is a fun way to ensure that everyone will be on the dance floor at least for one song (if not more)!

·       Forget about boring RSVPs! Make guests have fun with your RSVP and they will be much less likely to forget about sending them back. For instance, you could send them RSVP cards structured as Mad Libs with a wedding theme. This is also a wonderful opportunity to ask everyone what their favorite song/ musician/ band is, so that you can include it in the playlist of the Big Day.

·       Ask guests to leave small notes in a “wedding piñata”, instead of writing them in a traditional guest book. Break this piñata at your one-year anniversary and read your wedding guests’ notes – it will definitely bring tears of joy in your soul!

·       Ask guests to create a fun piece of art by popping balloons filled with paint and stuck to a white canvas. To make this more fun, make it like a darts competition (standing at a decent distance from the canvas will also help guests make sure they don’t stain their clothes).

·       Did you have a favorite fairytale? Get a copy of that book and cut out heart-shaped confetti from its pages. Use these to replace the traditional rice toss at your wedding exit – it’s much more meaningful and fun!
