Article published: 30th May 2025, by Lisa Truscott on behalf of The 2 Lisa's

Your wedding isn't just an event – it's a once-in-a-lifetime celebration that deserves to be extraordinary. While traditional weddings can fade into memory, extraordinary experiences become legendary. Imagine a celebration that doesn't just mark a moment, but creates jaw-dropping, heart-stopping memories that will have your guests talking for years to come.

As professional aerial performers, we've witnessed how unique entertainment can transform an ordinary wedding into an unforgettable experience. We have put together our top 10 to help you create your own legendary day.

1. Aerial Performances: A Breathtaking Spectacle

Obviously we’re slightly biased, but nothing captures guests' attention quite like an aerial performance. Imagine your wedding reception punctuated by graceful aerial artists performing stunning silk or hoop routines, creating magical moments that seemingly defy gravity. These performances can be tailored to your wedding theme, from romantic and ethereal to dramatic and bold, providing a truly unique visual experience that elevates your celebration from traditional to extraordinary.

2. Immersive Theatre Performers

Transform your wedding into an interactive storytelling experience. Professional actors can create personalized narrative moments that will engage your guests, weaving your unique love story into live performance art throughout the reception. This is a deeply personal celebration that involves your guests in your own love story.

3. Interactive Food Stations

Elevate your wedding dining experience with interactive food stations that become entertainment in their own right. Imagine chefs preparing personalized dishes live, such as custom risotto bars, artisan pizza crafting, or even molecular gastronomy demonstrations. Your guests can watch culinary artists create edible masterpieces, engage with the professional chefs, and customize their meals. These stations not only provide delicious food but also create memorable, interactive moments that spark conversation and delight.

4. LED Walkabout Performance

Create a magical atmosphere with an LED performer. The glowing silk on the fans and hypnotic flowing movements will transform your venue into an enchanting wonderland as the performer mingles in with your guests. They won’t be able to drag their eyes away! These performances provide both entertainment and ambient lighting that creates a truly mesmerising environment.

5. Magician and Close-Up Magic

Intimate magic performances can create moments of wonder and interaction between guests during cocktail hour or between wedding events. That moment where you’ve gone to get some photos in a special location and your guests are left to their own devices? These skilled performers can break the ice, create conversation starters, and provide entertainment that brings people together in shared amazement.

6. Musical Roaming Performers

Transform your wedding atmosphere with musical performers who move seamlessly through your venue. These versatile musicians can adapt their performance to different moments - from soft acoustic sets during dinner to upbeat jazz during cocktail hour. Imagine acoustic guitarists creating intimate moments, or jazz ensembles that bring spontaneous musical energy to your celebration or even a mariachi band to get the party started! Anything goes.

7. Aerial Bartending: Cocktails with a Twist

Another slightly biased option! Combine sophistication with spectacle by hiring aerial bartenders. Highly skilled performers can serve drinks while suspended, adding a theatrical element to your reception's beverage service. It's not just about drinks - it's about creating a moment of wonder that will have your guests talking long after the wedding day.

8. Comedy Performers

Inject humour and joy into your wedding celebration with a professional comedian. These performers can create personalized, wedding-appropriate comedy that celebrates love and relationships. From gentle jokes to clever observational humour, they will craft sets that make your guests laugh while feeling completely comfortable.

9. Professional Dance Performances

Professional dance performances can be a show-stopping addition to your wedding. They can fit a theme or be choreographed spectacles that tell a story. Imagine Indian dance to bless your day, salsa performers bringing Latin passion, or ballet artists creating ethereal moments of romance.

10. Augmented Reality Experience

Push the boundaries of your wedding entertainment with a cutting-edge augmented reality (AR) experience. Professional digital artists can create interactive AR installations that transform your venue. Guests can use provided tablets or their smartphones to see digital art overlays, interactive love story visualizations, or magical digital environments that complement your wedding theme.

Pro Tip

When booking entertainment, always discuss your vision, venue restrictions, and specific requirements to ensure a perfect fit for your special day. Don’t be scared to be particular or ‘fussy’. It’s your day, get what you want. And if you’re interested in aerial performances or LED walkabout for your wedding day please contact us to discuss how we can make your wedding truly extraordinary!
