BRIGHT IDEAS for Your Wedding Reception
Some of our ideas below may inspire you to do something slightly different at your wedding reception. It is worth bearing in mind, however, that your venue must lend itself accordingly. For more Top Tips click on our Reception section above.
Some of the most memorable weddings involve the bride and groom arriving at the venue in real style: helicopters, sea planes and hot air balloons are a few examples. Planning an element of surprise for your wedding makes the day a talking point.
Music plays an important part of a wedding and creates that all-essential ambience at the reception. Some couples like to be piped into their chosen venue, while others prefer to help their guests to mingle with the strains of a gentle harp in the background.
One wedding couple marrying at Cameron House spent time planning a cruise around Loch Lomond for their guests as the photographs were being taken. If your venue lends itself to this type of activity, it can get the reception off to a memorable start.
Fireworks can be a lovely finale to any good wedding reception - again planning this type of activity will only be suitable at certain venues.
