Ways to Entertain Children at a Wedding
Should you invite kids to your wedding? This is one question that every couple should ask themselves, as they plan their wedding and create their guest list. Most couples already have friends and family members who have children so this can be a tough decision. For some the answer is easy and for others not so much. But one thing no one wants is a noisy wedding ceremony.
If you do decide that you want to include children in your big celebration; make sure they’re happy and entertained at all times. Here are a few fun ideas for keeping those little bodies busy during your wedding celebration.
Create an Epic Kids Table
Setting up a few kids tables with various activities is one of the best ways to keep smaller guests busy for hours, especially during the speeches. Add games, puzzles, activity and coloring books to the tables so that the kids can choose something that appeals to them. You could also add a few goodie-bags to the table that contain treats, bubbles, or small toys.
Include them in the Wedding Day Activities
Children really enjoy helping out and being a part of the day’s activities. Giving them an important job to do, such as handing out pamphlets would make them feel included. If they feel like they’re helping out, they won’t get a chance to be bored. Another cute idea is to give each child a disposable camera so they can snap some photos on the day. You’d be amazed with all the cool and creative photos that they may come up with!
Let them Spend Time Outdoors
If it’s a nice and warm day out, set up a few outdoor games. Jenga, chutes and ladders, or even some activities such as hula-hoops and/or jump ropes. If the children are a little older, you can set up an crafts table that they can use to create props for a photo booth or a wedding memento for their parents.
Set Up a Kids Room
Set up a cool kids room or cave that contains beanbags, tables, movies and activities that they can enjoy. Even setting up something fun like riding horses or riding the bull is fun for kids.
"I am absolutely obsessed with the photos she captured"
WOW… I do not know where to start! I did not know Lessie before our photoshoot but I am so glad to have met her and chosen her to capture our engagement pictures! She was so easy to communicate with and so so helpful from start to finish. I am absolutely obsessed with the photos she captured of my fiancé and I! Not only do the photos look beyond amazing but our experience with her throughout the photoshoot was out of this world! She is extremely talented and was amazing at capturing natural and real moments!

"We highly recommend Lessie. She is GREAT!!"
Lessie is an amazing photographer. We could not be happier with our wedding photos. I love that she included many unique shots that I wouldn't have thought of but that I really love. Also, along with the photos of my husband and me and photos of both sides of the bridal party, she captured many of the wonderful smaller moments and details that are hard to notice amidst the busy-ness of the wedding day. We loved seeing those smaller details and the candid photos of friends and family as well. They're all very special to us.
