We all know that it can be easy to spend a small fortune on a wedding. There are a lot of elements that you need to pay for and if you have lots of guests, costs can quickly mount up.

Although the main event is obviously the ceremony itself, the reception is also an important part of the day and generally when people are able to have the most fun. Providing some form of entertainment for guests is a nice way to enhance your wedding day, but if you’re trying to stick to a tight budget what are your best options?

Love Belfast recently came up with some suggestions, noting that there are many ways to add a bit of fun to your wedding day without overspending.

Among the suggestions is to arrange photo booth hire in Kent, or wherever you live, to give you and your guests some fun keepsakes of the day. Also on the list is setting up one or two giant games for people to tackle. Giant Jenga and giant Connect4 were the two top picks from the news provider.

You could also explore hiring singing waiters and waitresses, or even a karaoke machine. It’s important to remember that this is your day and you should celebrate it however you see fit as a couple.

If you’re considering karaoke as an option, check out our top tips for belting out your favourite tunes. One of the most important considerations is which song to sing – it’s not enough to simply choose your favourite. Consider whether there are any long instrumental sections to make sure you’re not left standing on the stage with very little to do.
