#1. Have a cricket match before the wedding  

What better way than to break the ice than with a cricket match between the boys and girls side?

#2. Have a DJ request box on your Sangeet

Turn your coasters into 'DJ Request chits' that guests can scribble on. Drop them in a box for the DJ to listen to

#3. Popcorn cart for midnight during the feras 

Everyone gets hungry during the midnight feras. Ensure you keep everyone sufficiently happy with a midnight popcorn cart serving warm popcorn. One salted and caramel mix please for us !

Get a giant polaroid photobooth

 Nothing like a bit of glamour during the feras and soft glow of the chandelier sparkling through!

Self explanatory!

#16. Have Whistles on your table at the sangeet to cheer each side

 Put blow whistles on each table so the audience can cheer the people performing on stage

Have a box with chappals that women can change into for hours of dancing!

So everyone knows YOU guys a bit better

#20. Let people take polaroid shots and string them together.

 Our real bride Rupali not only strung polaroid shots together on this string, but the photos served as name tags for table arrangements
