[Wedding] Ranking of Popular Entertainment Acts

One essential part of a wedding—the start of a new chapter—is the entertainment and performances.

If you’ve been asked by the bride and groom and are thinking, “I want to accept, but what if it doesn’t go over well…?” you’re not alone.

Of course you want to honor an important request, but with relatives and colleagues in attendance, you want to avoid any missteps.

In this article, we’ll introduce a ranking of popular entertainment and performance ideas to help you out!

Be sure to use it as a reference.

For people who’ve had something to celebrate—like a birthday party—it’s got to be a pie in the face! These days, some are made with lotion that’s quickly absorbed by the skin, so they’re less likely to stain clothing.

If you don’t want to get your wedding outfit dirty, give that type a try.

The flipbook-style animations made famous by Tekken, who was active as a comedian, have become popular.

Recently, many people hand-draw them as a surprise for weddings and after-parties.

Photo slideshows are nice, but looking back on the couple’s memories with a flipbook animation is also really wonderful.

This is a surprise video where, during filming at a wedding after-party, people suddenly start dancing.

As more and more people join in, the precision increases, and the group of dancers delivers an amazing performance.

Meanwhile, the audience’s reactions are very entertaining—they’re surprised by the sudden start of the dance, yet they become captivated and even start clapping along.

Dance in a flash mob

These days, many children take dance lessons, and some can unexpectedly put on sharp, impressive performances.

In this flash mob, I believe the children are from a production company hired for the staging rather than relatives’ kids.

By having children play the roles of the bride and groom, it avoids coming off as pretentious and transitions smoothly to the next part of the performance.

Blue Man

Blue Man Group is a performance troupe that has been active since the 1990s.

As their name suggests, a trio wearing distinctive bright-blue makeup appears and delivers performance art centered on percussion, striking drums, pipes, and more.

In addition to performing on Broadway, they tour around the world, including in Japan.

If you have experience in wind ensembles or bands, why not try creating your own pipe instruments using PVC piping and put on a Blue Man–style performance? Because it’s a show conveyed purely through music and gesture, people of all ages can enjoy it.

Helium gas is quite handy for weddings and receptions, so I recommend having some ready.

Breathing it in to make a funny voice is a classic and perfect for musical performances or other entertainment.

Of course, you can also use it to make balloons float, so having a cylinder on hand is very convenient.

The intro was a lively surprise packed with gags: one moment they were offering congratulatory remarks while singing the song from the scene in Beauty and the Beast where the two understand each other and dance, and the next they were collecting money from the audience while singing a number from the movie Chicago.
