Entertainment is a great way to indulge yourself and your guests, keeping attendees of all ages and interests enthused and excited.
When planning your wedding entertainment however don’t go with the average. There are unusual acts keeping brides, grooms and guests entertained at wedding receptions up and down the country, here’s the weirdest and most wonderful…
Wedding piñatas

Your piñata can even be customised to suit your wedding theme and colour scheme. From wedding cake and engagement ring to heart-shaped and monogrammed, there’s a beautifully designed piñata for every wedding.

Petting zoos
If you adore animals, it would be a shame not to combine two great loves on your wedding day! Hiring a mobile petting zoo will keep adults and children alike thoroughly entertained and educated, as well as make your day memorable.
Circus performers
Put on a real performance at your wedding by hiring acrobats, trapeze artists, fire breathers and other circus performers to entertain your guests. A circus act is a perfect way to kick off your evening festivities, and you can be as creative as you like – it’s your big day after all!
If you’re looking to extend the circus theme, continue the act outside by hiring a selection of fairground rides.
Silent discos
Your wedding playlist isn’t going to satisfy everyone, so why not give your guests a choice of genres with a silent disco?
Silent discos involve you and your guests wearing headphones. You’ll have multiple channels to choose from, meaning everyone can find their groove. For those who don’t feel like dancing or are taking a much-needed break, a silent disco – and the sheer variety of eclectic dance moves it creates – makes for an entertaining watch!
Your choice of wedding entertainment can make your wedding as unique as the both of you, find more tips for creating a wedding that reflects you as a couple here.
