Unique Ideas

We're having an Incredible Hulk ice sculpture (this was obviously FH's idea).

We had our menus made of chocolate and placed at every other place setting at the reception.

Since DH is Irish, we had a bagpiper play as he walked into the hall.

About 30 seconds into the father/daugher dance, the DJ called all the father/daughters in the audience to join in. Same thing with the mother/son dance. We wanted to make it more interactive.

My guestbook was a compilation of photos of me and DH during our 2 years together. Guests signed around the pics. Now I have a great photo album/guestbook on our coffee table. I also brought it with me the rehearsal dinner so the 'important' people got to sign it for sure.

OMG!

Indian dhol player (drum)
Candy Buffet (not that unique)
FH and I are changing into Indian outfits during our reception.

nothing im not really interested in making it stand out so much as making sure everyone has a good time... were having the fewest stoppages of dancing possible... once for main course, once for cake cutting and mother/son, father/daughter dances...

I'm on board with this. No matter what grand ideas we have, it's probably been done before. Instead, we're trying to focus on our guests. I don't want them leaving with a favor, I want them leaving with a swag bag filled with desserts to take home, candy, picture frame, their photostrips from the photobooth, a CD, etc. I'm considering ordering white castle hamburgers to hand out at the end of the night- I know everyone will appreciate that!
