you can do raffels...ive heard of that....you can put a sticker under the cp and something under a plate and whose ever matches...you can put little raffel tickets on the tables and a matching one in or by the centerpiece and you can close the wedding with a raffle... I went to a wedding and it turned out to be a lot of fun! Everyone was involved and had fun with it! THe DJ did the announcing and everytnhing

Re: who gets the centerpiece - any ideas
There are lots of ways to figure this out. I've seen alot of weddings where something is passed around the table like hot potato and when they music stops whoever is holding it the item wins the centerpiece. Or you could add a twist to that too, where the last person holding the item thinks they have won, but then gets told that the person sitting to their right is the one who wins.
Another option is to have a sticker under the chair of the person who gets to take it home.
We are having high CP's so our guests won't be bringing them home.

ours are probably going to be too big to take home too. but we may get a candy bowl for each table to take home. we were thinking of doing the person with a birthday or anniversary closest to our wedding date

What I am going to do is have the DJ do a 'hot potato' type game with a $1. The first time it lands on someone, they are now the bartender for the table for the night . Then you do it again and poeple aren't wanting the $1 to land on them, and they get the centerpiece! It was a lot of fun when I played it at a wedding, so that is what I am going to do.

I was wondering the same thing... what do you do if you want to make SURE certain people like parents & grandparents get and then not care about the rest? Especially if parents and grandparents are at the same table and you want both to get one?
BTW, I think you girls could have a lot of fun with some of these ideas to make guests work for it!
