Advice needed please!

Johnlem, 7 September, 2013 at 15:18 Posted on Planning 0 5

Good afternoon, I am after some advice for my new business. My main target market is weddings. I am not advertising, I am just after some feedback and this is the ideal place with many couples planning on getting married. If I do set up this as a company, I will pay for advertising on hitched.co.uk as it is a great website from what I've seen!

I am interested in setting up a mobile arcade. I will charge £399 for the whole of your reception, unlike some event companies that only stay at your reception for 2-3 hours. The delivery charges will be 50p a mile, which means I could offer delivery to most of Enlgland at a reasonable price as I am quite central. All the machines will be free to play, so you won't have to k your guests to bring money to use the equipment. I plan on giving my clients four items to use at their weddings which are:

  • Single racer arcade machine, such as a sega rally one (or similar)
  • A grabbing machine which will be loaded full of sweets.
  • A 7 foot American style pool table.
  • A shooting game or a similar product.

I would appreciate any feedback, such as if the pricing is reasonable for the products, and if the equipment is relevant or if you would prefer any other type of arcade equipment?

Thankyou in advance!

    I would have loved something like this for our wedding would have kept my teenage sons and teenage guest entertained for the day and not to mention the men

    the price is good as well for the whole day, we almost paid £345 .00 just for a light up dance floor from 7pm til 12(10ft by 10 ft ) couldn't justify that amount for a dance floor but for what you are offering I would have ripped you hand off so to speak .

    Thanks for your reply! It's great to see people interested in my idea, have you (or no one reading this) got any name ideas?

    Sounds like a great idea! I'm rubbish at coming up with names though, sorry! :/

    I think its a really good idea.

    Not an arcade game but if someone would bring and set up a scalextrix course for a reasonable price I'd bite their arm off. Maybe people do already do that - haven't looked much.
