Music connected us: the best music competitions for weddings

No matter how wonderful the performance of the numbers was, no one canceled the “warm-up”. Musical games with the audience at a concert were invented just for this purpose. The entertainment program charges the audience with a great mood, gives additional vivid impressions and pleasant emotions.

Interaction with concert guests is relevant not only at the beginning of the event, but throughout the entire concert program. In between numbers, as a rule, mini-games are played. And to begin with, they take something more spectacular. In the article you will find all the suitable options. All games are suitable for both adult and children's (school age) audiences.

Generals

The competition is suitable for a concert led by two people. In this case, you can invite anyone from the audience to play the role of the second presenter. The leaders become generals and recruit two armies for themselves - the left and right halves of the hall. Then a meeting between two generals is shown, who boast about the skills of their charges:

  1. But my army claps better than anyone else! (the first half of the hall applauds loudly).
  2. Come on? Yes, you haven’t heard how my Arkharovites whistle first-class. (the audience in the second half of the hall whistles).
  3. And mine stomp so hard that you can hear it in the neighboring town!
  4. Haven’t you heard how they proudly and synchronously shout: “Hurray!”
  5. Yes, this cannot be compared with the way my army sings: “Get up, huge country.” (maybe another song).
  6. Yes, my people will sing this song with clapping just as well. (The second army sets the pace with clapping).

Then the generals decide to come to peace and decide to shout a single phrase together. If the concert is in honor of a holiday, then this is a congratulatory chant. You can use universal phrases. For example: “Have a nice evening everyone.”

Peculiarities


The beauty of holding music competitions at a wedding for guests and newlyweds is that the games can be very different .

For young people

Young guests will certainly enjoy the dance competitions – they are fun, fiery and arousing excitement. Two or more people can take part in them. But mass competitions where the maximum number of guests participate are especially successful: up to several dozen in each team.

When choosing outdoor competitions, it is important to consider :

  • age and status of guests;
  • the place where the competition is planned to be held.

Important! In a small cafe, where it is difficult to accommodate a wedding table, it will be difficult to successfully implement a wedding music competition with two dozen participants.

For small rooms and older guests

If there is not enough space in the hall or the overwhelming number of guests are elderly, then it is worth choosing song competitions. They will cheer up the newlyweds and guests and will definitely not let them get bored.


When holding table music competitions, you can offer not only singing songs, but also ask them to perform simple team tasks - the right side of the table against the left, the table of the groom’s guests against the table of the bride’s guests, etc. Such games help those present to get to know each other better and create an atmosphere of joy and fun that so important at a wedding.

Quiz “Changewalker”

You can choose a quiz according to the theme of the concert. For example, if it is dedicated to March 8, then list the names of films about women.

Game “Changewalker” - names of musical TV programs:

  1. Asian speaking - Eurovision.
  2. Speak according to the rules - Sing without rules.
  3. Two by two - One by one.
  4. Atelier Disconnection - Studio Soyuz.
  5. Hearing - Voice.
  6. A second of shame - A minute of glory.
  7. Poems - Songs.
  8. Verse of the month - Song of the year.
  9. Old storm - New wave.
  10. I won’t say it soon - I’ll sing it now.

Reward active viewers with symbolic prizes. For example, magnets, decorative candles, small chocolates. Gifts, although small, will add pleasant impressions from the entertainment program.

Leading

Try to avoid sad song plots, because a wedding is a fun event. Valentine

This, of course, is the best scenario, but in any case the company will become more united, and the wedding will be more playful and fun. Moreover, it will be nice if the toastmaster can tie the songs performed by the participants to the wedding location, time of year and holiday that is celebrated on this day or will come soon.

Important! Singing competitions should be organized when the guests have already had a little drink and danced. If you do this earlier, many will be embarrassed about their vocal abilities and refuse to participate. By the way, another good option is music competitions.

Barbell

The game is aimed at stirring up the room. Ideal for warming up before a concert. The presenter shows the teams to the audience. When “Goal!” sounds — the right half of the hall raises its right hand and shouts: “Goal.” When it says “Past,” the left half raises its left hand up and shouts: “Past.” On the command “Barbell” - everyone raises both hands together shouting: “Barbell”.

For the purpose of prompting, the presenter raises his hands, pointing to the right or left side of the hall. However, he periodically confuses guests by raising the wrong hands.

"Potato Spoon"

For the next fun, the guys need to be divided into two teams again. Here you will need to find as many potatoes as there are participants in the competition, as well as a bowl or pan for them. In one corner there is this container, and in the other there are children with spoons in their hands. An empty plate should be placed next to each team.

At the leader’s signal, the players must take turns, as in a relay race, to get to the potatoes, take one of them on a spoon and bring it to their plate. Those guys who finish the race earlier will win.

We show with gestures

To the accompaniment of lively, cheerful music, the audience repeats the movements of the presenter:

  1. How did most people come here? By car. Let's show how we steer. (spectators pretend to drive)
  2. So, how do we signal? Well done!
  3. Let's praise ourselves. (everyone pats themselves on the head)
  4. Now let's shake our arms with dumbbells. Well done!
  5. Pumped up your arms! After all, they will be useful to us today. We will rhythmically raise our hands up to cheerful songs. (audience raises hands several times)
  6. Amazing! What if there is a touching song? That's right, let's smoothly swing our arms left and right. (guests raise their hands up and swing from side to side)
  7. How will we thank the artists? Applause!

Any dance music will be suitable for accompaniment. You might like some of the following options:

  1. Aqua - Barbie Girl.
  2. Little Big - Skibidi.
  3. Little Big - Uno.
  4. Quest Pistols - Coolest of all.
  5. El Capon - Shut Up Chicken Radio Edit.

"Lego Relay Race"

Competitions and games at children's birthday parties involve the use of items that boys and girls really like. For example, for entertainment you can take a Lego constructor, which not only kids, but also teenagers, and some adults are crazy about.

Teams must be given an equal number of similar parts. Afterwards, the presenter starts the timer and the participants assemble their buildings from the provided materials. Once time is up, they will be forced to submit their “architectural solutions”, and judges, who may be parents, will determine the winners.

You can change the course of the game if you put the constructor along the chain. In this case, each participant in turn must place the selected part in any place. In the end, the one whose construction turns out to be more creative will be the winner.

How an elephant sneezes

Short interactive session with the audience. It will come in handy, as a fun break between performances.

The presenter asks the audience if they heard an elephant sneeze? Do they want to hear?

Further, the hall is divided into three parts. The first part is given the chant: “boxes”, the second - “cartilage”, the third - “dragged”. First, the leader gives commands to each group to shout out their word. Then he asks to shout out in unison! After a friendly “boxes, cartilages, dragged,” the presenter says that this is how an elephant sneezes.

Cool TOP 11

Best Recognition

The essence of the competition is that guests compete to see who can type the most pleasant phrases (preferably from songs) for their other half. All this is done impromptu, to the tune of a playing melody.

Interesting! A loved one or loved one can also be imaginary. The newlyweds are given the role of judge.

The melodies chosen are very different - rhythmic, cheerful, sentimental. It turns out very interesting when the competition participants sing compliments to their other halves, and the music suddenly stops. In such a situation, the most important thing is not to get confused and continue the serenade!

Guess the melody

A well-known competition where guests must guess the melody. Despite its widespread popularity, most guests perceive the offer to participate in this competition with liveliness and enthusiasm .


It will be interesting if you prepare in advance not just a melody, but musical recordings-confusions. For example, the words from the song “Everything for You” are heard with a completely different melody. The contestants' task is to guess which song's melody is included in such a phonogram.

turnip

As you know, the fairy-tale turnip was pulled by its “tail”; the same “tail” is not difficult to find in songs. The last words of each line of the first verse act as the tail. For example, in the typical song “Wedding” the last words sound like: “be silent...”, “sad”, “mochi...” and “silence...”.

Important! Not all songs are easy to guess, so you should prepare at least 10 options. You can make a selection of more, but you shouldn’t get carried away so as not to bore your guests with the monotony.

As for the “tails,” they are pre-written on beautiful cards and laid out on a tray. It is noteworthy that both teams and individual participants can play.

Song requests

Such a competition is very successful when applications from guests are generated in advance . Applications are needed in order to understand what songs the guests want to perform. For example, the father-in-law loves the composition “Why the Soul Sings,” so he indicates it in advance in the application.


Such requests must be made in writing. It’s great if you manage to decorate them beautifully. Then the applications are laid out on the wedding table and await their turn.

When the feast has already begun and the guests are having fun, you can arrange a kind of sports lotto , when guests choose one or another application. After the selection, the applicant’s request is voiced, and the guests perform the ordered song.

Brain workout

This competition can be classified as table competitions. Its advantage is that it can be carried out both individually and for teams .

The toastmaster invites guests to sing all the songs that can be related to the wedding theme. The winner is the participant or team who sang the wedding song last.

Congratulations to the newlyweds

For such a table competition, two teams are needed .


The presenter gives all participants sheets of paper with words, after which in 5 minutes they need to compose a song with congratulations for the newlyweds . You can only use words that are written on paper. And the winners of the competition are chosen by the heroes of the occasion.

Advice! Instead of composing the song again, you can remake a popular hit by inserting the resulting words into it.

Dance over the abyss

Guests should be divided into pairs, each pair is given a newspaper. Music plays and couples dance, but so as not to step over the edge of the newspaper.

After the first song, the newspaper is folded in half and the competition continues. The couple that steps over the edge of the newspaper is eliminated. The competition continues until there is only one couple left who managed to “dance over the abyss,” that is, not to step over the edge of the newspaper. She receives a well-deserved prize.

Revelations

Teams must take part in such a competition, not individual participants, otherwise the competition will lose its entertainment value.

The essence of this cool competition is that the first team asks a question to its opponents with a line from a song. The second team’s task is to answer with a line from another song , and the meaning of the answer should correspond as much as possible to the question.

For example:

  • question: “Where are you, my dark-eyed one?”;
  • answer: “There, beyond the mists, eternal, drunken...”

Talking hat

The toastmaster brings a certain headdress to the bride’s head, which is supposedly capable of reading the newlywed’s thoughts. The toastmaster asks the bride what she is thinking about at the moment, and at this time music is broadcast that expresses the thoughts of the bride.

Interesting! Such a prank can be done not only with the bride, but also with all interested guests.

The Talking Hat competition has several options, but in any interpretation, bursts of laughter are guaranteed.

Humorina

The presenter invites everyone to take part in a music quiz. Those interested are divided into two teams. The toastmaster asks questions that must be answered within 5 seconds.

Examples of questions:

  • pop star of the Russian stage, was the husband of a grandmother, but not a grandfather himself (Phillipa Kirkorov);
  • a song that sounds like a confession that the performer has gone crazy (“I’ve lost my mind”);
  • a song about a hopelessly ugly girl (“Why are you so scary”);
  • a musical duet that featured a spectacular woman who was not afraid to appear funny, and a plump man, sweet and funny (“Cabaret Duet Academy”).

Musical instruments

The “Musical Instruments” competition is one of the most interesting and original. The idea is that the guests are divided into pairs (boy/girl), after which the man sits on a chair and is invited to use his partner like some kind of musical instrument.

For example, the presenter says that the girl should play the role of a guitar or piano, and here you can show all your imagination and creativity. All this is accompanied by appropriate musical accompaniment, funny remarks from the host and guests.


Not only people who know each other well can participate in the competition. If it is held a few hours after the start of the celebration, when the guests have relaxed under the influence of strong drinks, then strangers will be more willing to take part in the entertainment. Often, acquaintance during the competition turns into preparation for the next wedding.

It's especially fun when a couple is tasked with playing the accordion - sometimes the guests perform something that will take your breath away! And the winner is the one who, by popular vote, is recognized as the best virtuoso of using a girl as a musical instrument.

Important! There are definitely no losers in this competition, since both participants and spectators enjoy it.

Teddy Bear

The presenter divides the room into three parts. Each person is asked to remember a famous nursery rhyme. For example:

  1. A clubfooted bear is walking through the forest.
  2. They tore off the bear's paw.
  3. Our Tanya is crying loudly.

If the audience doubts, the presenter reminds the words (and prompts in the process).

The audience's task is to sing poetry to the tunes of popular songs. For example, these:

  1. Morgenstern - Kadelak.
  2. Arthur Pirozhkov - Tudym-Syudym.
  3. Klava Koka - Left the chat.

Tips for choosing

  • Focus on the musical preferences of your guests. If this is a youth wedding, then it is hardly worth including accordion songs or Russian folk songs in the program. This kind of competition might go off with a bang once, but it’s unlikely to happen again.
  • Keep it in moderation. Competitions are rightly considered the best entertainment for any wedding, but if you force guests to complete tasks for a long time without a break, it can cause dissatisfaction.
  • It is ideal to include game blocks of 15-20 minutes in the program (2-3 competitions, no more) with breaks for dancing, toasts and everything else. But even if on paper everything seemed ideal, but in fact the guests are already tired and are performing tasks “under pressure” - a good host should immediately change the program, because his main task at any wedding is to maintain a good mood among everyone present, not allow irritation or boredom to occur.
  • Say no to platitudes. Everyone knows the traditional wedding competitions that have long set their teeth on edge: if you attend 10 different weddings, at 8-9 of them the program may consist of 90% of the same “terribly funny” tasks.
  • Don’t be lazy and find original ideas for competitions for your wedding - your guests will thank you for it.
  • For competitions where participants must guess the melody or sing a song, choose only well-known musical compositions in Russian. Prepare microphones, soundtracks, tape recorder, etc. in advance. Check that everything works without failures or hiccups. Don't forget to also prepare prizes for the winners.

Hunter

A cheerful, cheerful melody without words is turned on. The audience repeats the words and movements after the presenter:

  1. One day a hunter got ready to go hunting. He got dressed, took the gun and walked along the path (they stomp their feet).
  2. From the stone path I came out onto the sandy path and walked along the sand (rubbing palm against palm).
  3. Then along the logs across the bridge (they beat their fists on their chests).
  4. Further, through the swamp. From bump to bump (clap your hands).
  5. Then crawl along the path (slap your knees).
  6. Our hunter is tired. He sat down on a stump and saw a bear, but ran back. Crawling along the path (slapping knees at an accelerated pace).
  7. Then through the swamp (they clap their hands quickly).
  8. Then they hit the logs (they quickly beat their chests with their fists).
  9. Next, along the sand (in accelerated mode, rub your palm against your palm).
  10. And along the way (stomp their feet).
  11. Finally the hunter is home. He exhaled, calmed down, and let his wife tell him how he walked along the path (slap on the knees).
  12. Yes, on the sand (palm on palm).
  13. And through the swamp (clap your hands).
  14. And on logs (with fists to the chest).
  15. Yes, on the road (they stomp their feet).

The cost of a music program for a corporate event

up to 50 people - 60,000 rubles from 70 to 100 people - 85,000 rubles (if there is no sound equipment, the cost increases) over 100 people - individual calculation

Additional services:

  • DJ with a set of sound equipment - 19,000 rubles. (holds short dance breaks between rounds and a final disco).
  • Photographer - 3500 rub. at one o'clock.
  • Design of a photo zone with a set of photo props (many options at different prices)
  • The show program is selected individually.

Three phrases

Mini-game for spectators during a break between performances. The presenter says: “Friends, I will now name 3 phrases. You will need to repeat. The task is for you and me to say only 3 phrases, can you handle it?”

Next, the presenter calls out the phrases:

  1. What a wonderful evening! (audience repeats)
  2. What talented artists. (audience repeats)

Presenter : “But you lost.” The audience is naturally perplexed. It’s just that the phrase “What talented artists” was already the third one uttered. Her repetition became the fourth phrase.
