Achieve the ‘Perfect Par’ with mini golf hire fore (get it…?) weddings. The brand new trend in the wedding industry is sweeping the country. Whether you’re keen fans of the sport or dabble in with argyle socks, flat caps and cashmere jumpers around your necks - prepare for the hole-in-one of weddings. At Gray Events, we’ve got the golf wedding theme down to a tee.

Perfecting the Golf Wedding Theme
You may have your wedding reception venue booked (preferably on a golf course), but now you have to think about the entertainment. Forget the DJ and the ‘open bar’ (well, one of those…) and prepare for an almighty golfing competition at your wedding reception. 
Our new product, mobile crazy golf, has been created to the finest standard, with nine portable crazy golf courses to conquer. Break from the tradition of wedding receptions and host an exciting and innovative party that strays from the rules, and allows you to practice your swing. 
The nine crazy golf courses for hire are available on a ‘per hole’ basis, boasting a range of obstacles for you to conquer - such as windmills, bowling skittles, plants and ramps to manoeuvre. 
The activity brings all of the fun of your childhood, playing on the crazy golf course during the summer, and adds a touch of nostalgia to your Big Day. If you have also ever wondered how you’ll hold up in a mini golf game against your new hubby or wife, now is your chance.

Why Should you Hire Crazy Golf for your Wedding?
There are plenty of reasons for crazy golf course hire, and none more so than the sheer amount of fun available with the game. We’ve outlined our favourite reasons for hiring portable crazy golf on your big day. 
Nostalgia
Everyone enjoys a game of mobile crazy golf, and almost all have played the sport at some point. People of all ages can get involved with these activities and, for those who don’t like to display their dance moves so soon into the wedding reception, they can play a round of golf before loosening up for the Cha Cha Slide later in the night. ​
Photo Opportunities 
One of the most important aspects of your wedding day is, of course, the photographs. The backdrop to your wedding day just got exciting, with the addition of the golf wedding theme. You could, perhaps, have your first official photograph as newlyweds on the putting green or, if you are lucky enough, with a hole-in-one. The possibilities are endless. 
Ice Breaker
It’s expected that not all guests at your wedding will know each other, but a round of golf on our crazy golf course hire will help them get close. There’s no better way to bring people together than attempting to hit a ball through a windmill… The games also add competition to the day, and there’s nothing healthier than that at a wedding reception. 
The portable crazy golf course hire is also available with staff to man the games, should any of your guests get ideas to cheat for that winning shot. Our team will keep them in check, with the addition of scorecards, golf clubs and balls, along with prizes for the winners. You may not even need that ‘open bar’ to keep the guests entertained…

Golf Wedding Theme Additions 
Now you’re hiring crazy golf for your wedding reception; you’ve got to wholeheartedly embrace the theme. Pay tribute to yours and your partner’s sport with a gold wedding theme cake, topped with a giant golf ball and tees for your big day. Similarly, you could provide the guests with golf ball inspired cake pops as favours, leaving them with lasting memories (and full stomachs) of your golf wedding reception. 

You can discuss the mobile crazy golf hire with one of our team and get in touch with us today.

Carnival Themed Wedding - The 8 Best Circus Ideas

1/9/2017

2 Comments

 
Experience all of the fun at the fair, on your wedding day. The vintage carnival themed wedding is hugely popular, not least because of the sheer amount of circus theme party games available. Carnival weddings provide a beautiful and awe-inspiring backdrop to your photographs and keep your guests entertained (especially the younger ones) throughout your big day. 

​8 Carnival Theme Wedding Ideas

As an alternative to the typical wedding, a carnival wedding reception is guaranteed to provide you with lasting memories. We have a whole host of carnival and funfair game ideas for even the Bride and Groom to conquer, as well as carnival theme decoration ideas for the biggest of venues. 
1) ‘Welcome to the Carnival’ Entrance Decoration
First things first, you need to make a dramatic entrance - it is your wedding day after all. The retro ‘Welcome to the Carnival’ decor idea is perfect for those hoping to emulate a vintage carnival wedding reception, featuring bright balloons entwined on the poles and a huge sign that the guests will not miss. Along with this, you’ve got a green carpet entrance for that VIP circus theme experience, and you could even add optional extras for an additional exciting touch. These extras include circus characters to meet and greet your guests - ideal for carnival weddings. ​

​2) Test Your Strength Circus Theme Party Game 
Only try if you think you are hard enough… Make way for an extra special guest at your wedding, Strongman Hugo. His carnival wedding game is a brand-new addition to the funfair wedding ideas, and all you have to do is hit the lever as hard as you can, for the puck to rise and ring the bell. Staff will man the ‘Test Your Strength’ funfair game at your wedding (to ensure there isn’t any cheating between guests) and there’ll even be prizes for those that can ring the bell. 
3) Tin Can Alley Carnival Game 
The tin can game is a part of everyone’s childhood - and now your wedding day. For a vintage carnival wedding, you can’t beat the game of knocking over tin cans with bean bags, reminiscent of your school P.E days. The Tin Can Alley boasts tin cans on shelves and is guaranteed fun for everyone at your circus themed wedding. ​
​4) Basketball Shootout
Your carnival wedding reception is not the only slam dunk. The impressive Basketball Shootout is for the ballers at your wedding, along with every other guest. Earn points by shooting the ball straight through the hoop and get competitive with extra points for those trickier shots. Available in bright red, this funfair game idea compliments any circus themed wedding and is certain to attract even more attention than the speeches. ​

​5) Roll a Ball Carnival Wedding Game 
​Roll up, roll up for one of the greatest circus theme party games. Roll a Ball is inspired by the ‘horse racing’ games you used to see at the fair and entails you rolling the ball, to receive points. So far, so simple, but you have to avoid the red holes and aim for green for those elusive points. The huge funfair game is suitable for two players at a time, creating the very first competition for the Bride and Groom as man and wife. 
6) Blackjack Darts 
Everyone loves playing darts, and now you can incorporate it into your carnival themed wedding. One of the finest circus ideas for carnival weddings, Blackjack Darts, is precisely what you’d expect; aim to make blackjack by hitting two of the cards. It will test your eye, precision and just how much you’ve had to drink at the wedding reception. ​
7) Carnival Themed Photo Booth
If there’s one thing your carnival themed wedding deserves, it’s a photo booth to treasure the memories. A photo booth is a fantastic option for your guests to take away pictures, and for you, it solves the questions regarding favours. In keeping with the theme, you could also get circus themed props. 
8) Carnival Themed Bunting 
You’ve got the games, and now you need the carnival themed decorations. With that in mind, along with our funfair games, we also provide bunting for your venue. Nothing says a circus themed wedding, quite like bunting. The bunting also only scratches the surface, as we’ll provide scorecards to keep your guests in check and a bottle of bubbly for the ultimate winner of the day.​
The carnival themed wedding doesn’t stop at the funfair games. There are untold possibilities for this wedding reception theme, such as carnival food and drinks. For a true day at the funfair, you could provide your guests with the likes of popcorn, burgers and hot dogs for your wedding meal. The drinks could also be served in quirky, retro style milk bottles with striped straws for an unforgettable big day.
