Hi everyone,
I'd love to hear from people who have had celebration parties/receptions in Manchester. I'm getting married in Mexico in April but having a celebration party in Manchester in August.
I'm looking for fun ideas for entertaining guests. I wondered if people still go for magicians/caricaturists? I was considering a mariachi band, does anyone know/recommend any? Equally does anyone have any DJ recommendations? We want a good combo of Defected type house music combined with the traditional wedding dance floor fillers.
The other thing I've considered are some games. It's hard to explain without sounding tacky but if you've heard of things like Bongo's bingo or those games that get guests interacting eg where a "host" gets a couple of people up to do blind pinata bashing or play your cards right with a gift from us.
I think that because we're not having tradition speeches/toasts as such we want to have a little structure or a way to gather peoples attention. We want the evening to be memorable.
Would love ideas on how people have made their party/reception unique?
Thanks
Kim
