Wedding Table Ice Breakers

When planning your wedding one thing to bear in mind is those guests who might be attending on their own and won’t know anybody. Even those attending in a couple might not know anybody else on their table. A few ice breakers can be really helpful to get people talking around the table and enjoying themselves.

One of the best ideas to have come onto the market are packs of table trivia. These can be purchased cheaply and are great to get people talking and to provide entertainment between courses.

Use your table decorations as a way of creating a talking point. Having some unusual favours or a stunning centre piece will be a way of starting a conversation for your guests.

Nominating one of your ushers to make sure that anyone on their own gets introduced to someone that they might have something in common with is a very nice touch.

At a recent wedding that I went to the bride and groom had put together a quiz that was placed on people’s tables. All the questions were about the bride and groom, where they met, where their first date was etc. Their bestman organised the marking and prize giving ceremony and it proved to be a real talking point. It also taught the guests a thing or two about the bride and groom. There was a heated debate going on, even between the bride and groom, about where they went on their first date!

These are just a few ideas. It really will make a difference to your guests if you have a think about a few ice breakers. There are lots of ideas for different wedding accessories, wedding decorations and favours on the Verbena website.
