Have your best friends or family put up a skit or dance performance to keep you and the guests entertained. The skit or dance performance can be anything related to the bride and groom. It could be based on how they first met; their first date, any funny incident or most cherished moment till date.

Introduce the fun and trendy element of karaoke in your ceremony. You can either choose to sing the first song or have the elderly to do so. This is the time you can watch all the self-proclaimed singers mix up the lyrics, your aunties and uncles turn into rock stars and let’s not forget the young megastars in the family awaiting to stun the audience. Get all the mehndi song lyrics going for this one and sing along.
