On your special day, why not try something a little different for your reception and hire some exciting lawn games for your guests to enjoy? Perfect for a sunny day, they’re guaranteed to make your event particularly memorable, and are great fun for all ages. Here are a few suggestions:

Sports games

Crazy golf never falls out of popularity. It’s an easy game to play even if you’re wearing the most elaborate of wedding gowns, as it doesn’t require a great deal of athleticism. For a similar game with a more traditional feel, you might prefer to opt for croquet, a game that has existed in some form or other for hundreds of years. If you are feeling more energetic, a lively round of badminton or rounders will keep your attendees on their toes.

Classic games

If board games are more your style, giant lawn chess is a stylish and elegant game to have at your wedding. For a more modern pastime, try giant “Connect 4” instead. These games are only suitable for two players though, so if you want to accommodate more guests simultaneously, you might prefer to choose giant “Jenga” or “Twister” – but don’t forget to take into consideration formal attire.

Fairground games

If a classic carnival is your cup of tea, a few hired fairground favourites, such as coconut shy or a high striker game, will be perfect for an outdoor summer wedding.

If you’re looking for outdoor wedding venues in Cheshire, give Delamere Manor a call today to book your 2021 date.
