"Knight's Battle"
When celebrating a birthday in nature, you can organize a real knightly tournament for your guests. To do this, you need to give each of them a balloon, a pushpin and a disposable plastic plate. All knights (girls can also participate) should be asked to inflate balloons and tie them to their belts, and then disperse across the clearing in different directions. After the leader gives the command, the knights must begin the battle, trying to pierce the ball with a button. In this case, knights can defend themselves with a plate shield. The glory of the greatest knight will go to the one whose balloon did not burst during the battle.

Cash competitions
It's no secret that a wedding is not just a holiday where the newlyweds have fun with their friends and loved ones, celebrating the birthday of their new family. The bride and groom begin an independent life and, of course, dream of material well-being.
Guests invited to the celebration can help them make their dreams come true by participating in various money contests, quizzes, and competitions. A great many such competitions have been invented, but the most popular remain:
- Auction. The host invites guests to buy various items that will remain with them as a souvenir, or a piece of wedding cake. Naturally, the funds raised at such an auction become the initial capital of a young family, so the participants in the competition bargain, actively raising prices. The items being traded are toys, souvenirs, key rings, drinks, and postcards. The starting price, as a rule, does not exceed a few kopecks, but as a result, the item is sometimes sold for several thousand rubles.
- Who will be born first? This competition is well known to many and has long become traditional. How fun and original it will depend on the toastmaster’s ability to captivate and amuse the guests. According to the scenario, witnesses or close friends of the newlyweds bring two pairs of rompers into the hall. Some are pink and others are blue. Guests place bills in them, and as soon as the children's pants are filled with money, they are publicly counted. It is believed that whatever rompers or tights contain a sum of money, the first-born child will have that gender.
- Selling a dance with the bride. The toastmaster runs this competition, counting on the boys’ uncontrollable desire to dance with the young beauty. Dance time is sold by the minute, setting a certain price, but sometimes they even sell seconds spent next to the young bride, while beautiful music is playing.
Cash competitions require a carefully thought-out scenario and extensive preparation.
You cannot put a guest in an awkward position by asking too high a price; you cannot offend his sense of dignity by asking him for a penny.
Cash is used not only for the pieces of wedding cake that the newlyweds cut and sell. You will have to pay for the noodles, for the spoon, without which you will not be able to try this dish. The toastmaster invites guests to pay for the missing cutlery and glasses on the table. It will be better if the presenter holds one truly full-fledged, interesting, exciting money competition for gambling guests.
This will give the invitees the opportunity to decide how much money they can spend on purchasing wedding gifts and souvenirs.
Meeting with guests
The first time all invited guests will see each other is when they arrive at the wedding. It is necessary to appoint a person responsible for meeting everyone arriving for the holiday, because from this moment the acquaintance of guests at the wedding begins.
Ideas on how to welcome guests:
- If your wedding is traditional, with a ransom, when guests arrive at the bride and groom's home separately, then you can introduce them to each other upon arrival. In this way, the guests of each party will get to know each other a little before the celebration. As a rule, the bride and groom have no time for dating at this time. Therefore, let the parents or the witness and witness at the wedding do this. Or you can ask the friendliest and most sociable relative to handle the greeting of guests.
- If you do not have a ransom, then, most likely, guests will arrive immediately to the venue of the festive evening. Then the welcome zone will be the best option. At the entrance, guests can be greeted by the wedding coordinator, parents on both sides, the host or actors, for example, funny mimes. And then let a buffet area be prepared for them. This is where first acquaintances take place!
Start with platitudes
Where to start the conversation? Unless you are a pick-up artist who happened to look at our site, you don’t need to come up with something mind-blowingly witty to make a good impression at the very beginning of your acquaintance. By saying “normal”, “ordinary” things, you show that you are a “normal” person and can be dealt with.
Comment on the atmosphere of the event, ask how the person got here or what he does. Even a phrase about good weather on such a wonderful day would be quite appropriate. Anything will do as long as it is not a complaint, rudeness or something unpleasant for the interlocutor. In the future, you can move on to a more meaningful conversation. However, remember. In this case, it's not what you say, but how you say it that matters. Exude friendliness and affability, be banal - sometimes this is all that is required for a new acquaintance.
