A football-themed wedding is an excellent choice for a sports couple

Each of us, sooner or later, has to play a certain social role in an action called “Wedding”.
We act as the groom, the bride, the mother-in-law, the father-in-law, and relatives. Most often, we play the role of wedding guests. If you are among the groom’s friends, I’m afraid that you will again have to sadly whine at the bride’s door: “Your product is our merchant...”. Bored, gentlemen? And how. So, we organize the buyout in a fun and creative way. To do this, let’s move the ancient tradition to another place and slightly change priorities.

Dear my readers!

Preparing a bride ransom script

Venue: football field, stadium
Time: moment of bride price

Participants: friends of the groom, friends of the bride, everyone from among the guests, divided into 2 teams (boys separately, girls separately). 2 people responsible for the event are appointed in advance from among the most lively and humorous friends and girlfriends on both sides.

Necessary equipment: goal, ball, football uniform combined with fan paraphernalia, cards for the competition, tape recorder.

Before we begin describing the competitions, let's make a few notes.

01. One of the main jokes is the fan outfit. Don’t be lazy, go online and admire the fans in all their glory. Believe me, you have never seen anything funnier in your life. Choice of images – 3 thousand pictures, each more fun than the other. Fan antlers and coloring pages look especially cool (the word “horns” for some reason makes guests especially happy at any wedding). Choose an image according to your sense of humor.

02. It is advisable to support any event of this kind with musical accompaniment. Prepare football anthems and songs in advance; if you want to sing or dance, download the pros and cons. And, of course, take with you a working tape recorder with good batteries.

Football themed wedding cake

A wedding cake is the main decoration of the festive table. Modern confectioners can perform it in the most original and unusual design. You have a chance to realize any of your ideas. And if you prefer a classic version of the cake, then you can decorate and complement it with themed figures made from mastic.

You can also please your guests and organize a bar for them with themed sweets in the form of soccer balls, cups and medals. Such desserts will definitely attract attention and fit perfectly into the concept of the celebration.

Bride price plan

01. One of the people in charge announces the conditions. The groom's team wins - his bride. The groom's team loses, let the groom go wherever he looks and look for another bride. Guests, don’t be upset, we are still hanging out, but just like that, without a wedding. More than enough food and drink.

02. Both teams are lined up on opposite sides of the strip in the center of the field. Traditional greeting of teams, prepared in advance. Here you can show your poetic abilities. Someone must have them. Those who like to sing (especially if they are deaf) are welcome.

03. Fan outfit competition with a defense called “The stupidest fan outfit.” You can hold a fashion show with comments regarding the future life together of the bride and groom.

04. Football chant competition. Each team prepares 3 chants, which are about the bride and groom.

For example:

I’ll sell my car, house and books, but Yulia (Masha, Ira, Katya, etc.) will be in the big leagues!

The dog loves meat, the crow loves cheese, and I love Oleg (Sergei, etc.) - Olezhek is my idol!

or

The little boy went to football, he said quietly: “The groom is a champion.” They kicked the boy's body for a long time. No one stood up - after all, they beat for a cause!

or

From ancient Rome to our times, no one knew that the groom was a champion!

We feel sad without our handsome groom!

And so on.
It's simple: take any football chant and remake it in your own way.

05. Competition - a quiz on knowledge of football and sports terms in relation to family life. Each term has its own meaning, which can easily be applied to any family situation. First we make cards with terms.

For example: doping, double, captain, goalkeeper, wall, feint, forward (striker), outsider, junior, etc.

Taking turns, receiving a word - a task, team members depict an analogy from family life in their faces. You can use words, or you can use pantomimes. Preparation time: 5 minutes.

06. Competition "Penalty". Whoever wins will rule the roost in family life. Teams take turns defending the goal.

Comment: do not hit too hard, because... It’s a wedding after all, the guests are smart and so far without bruises.

07. Announcement of the results of competitions and the ceremonial presentation of the bride to the groom.

Dancing and music

Must be sporty style. You can play the “Skiers’ Anthem” melody, to the sounds of which the banquet will begin. You have to dance a lot and for a long time, because this is a sports wedding, where the most cheerful and active dancer will be awarded a medal - a trip to Courchevel or a piece of wedding cake cut by the bride’s hand.

A wedding in a sporty style can be decorated in another way. There are quite a lot of sports today, you just need to find your option correctly. The main thing is an individual approach and original solutions. Believe me, after such a wedding, your guests and relatives will remember your wedding for many years.

Image ideas for plus size women

In most cases, the same options are relevant for overweight men as for slim men. There is only one note: it is best to choose a dark color scheme for men’s bodies. For example, a black classic suit with a milky shirt, dark blue jeans, or shades of brown that go especially well with jumpers.

A few more recommendations:

To keep your pants in place, it's best to wear suspenders

They attract attention, visually make a person taller, and they are simply a stylish element of the image. You need to be careful with belts. They expand full figures and “cut” them in half

As already mentioned, shirts with patterns and prints are extremely trendy. For a more toned look, opt for plaid prints and horizontal stripes. Irregular geometry is also a good choice. It is worth adding a bright accent to the upper body. The best option would be a tie - wide, large and neat. It is not recommended to use butterflies - they will look faded

They expand full figures and “cut” them in half. As already mentioned, shirts with patterns and prints are extremely trendy. For a more toned look, opt for plaid prints and horizontal stripes. Irregular geometry is also a good choice. It is worth adding a bright accent to the upper body. The best option would be a tie - wide, large and neat. It is not recommended to use butterflies - they will look faded.

The main thing is to take into account the fact that everyone has different figures, and fullness may also be different. In some cases, a butterfly is contraindicated (for example, a large size, a short and full neck, the butterfly will simply get lost), but for some, even overweight men, it will suit. It’s best to try on and experiment with all the ideas that arise in your head, and only then decide whether it’s suitable or not.

7Cafe

There are two options here

1. The cafe where the banquet will be held has an additional room. In this case, in the additional room you can prepare a buffet with light snacks, drinks, tea and coffee.
   Entertainment can be different. For example, young people can prepare a video in advance by setting a slide show of their photographs to music.
2. You can ask the guests to prepare something like a congratulatory wall newspaper for the young people, providing them with whatman paper, felt-tip pens and old magazines so that they can cut out pictures from them for a collage. Sounds a little childish. But you know, sometimes adults take great pleasure in doing “children’s” things.
3. You can, again, invite a host who will hold a couple of competitions or team games.
4. Or you can provide guests with several board games. Just don’t immediately imagine chess and dominoes. Now the choice of board games is more than diverse (“Activity”, “7 on 9”, “Monopoly”, “Elias”, “Danetki”). By the way, ordinary puzzles are no less interesting. Many people collect them with great passion.
5. The cafe where the banquet will be held does not have an additional room. In this case, you can find some cozy establishment closer to the place where the photo shoot will take place, so that guests can at least take a break and drink tea or coffee.

Dress code for guests

Those invited to a sports-themed wedding may not support your ideas, and there is no need to force them to wear sneakers. But a team of beloved, dear girlfriends and friends will still have to be dressed with a specific dress code. For girls, you can choose multi-colored high-top lace-up sneakers and short dresses, and for the groomsmen, buy the same shoes in combination with tapered knee-length shorts.

To complement the chosen dress code, select appropriate accessories: rackets, balls, flags. You can make or buy special paper mustaches, smiles, hearts on wooden sticks for a photo shoot, so that later you can happily look back at the photos from your sports celebration. The evening will be a success with any dress code, since the theme of sports for weddings is not hackneyed.

Newlyweds' outfits

The main highlight and guarantee of bright, unforgettable photos are the wedding dresses of the newlyweds. In fact, it was only because of them that it was worth organizing everything.

If there is a military groom in the family, then he puts on his festive uniform, if the bride, then it is better to put the uniform aside for service celebrations and choose a dress. In the latter case, the groom can wear a suit to match the bride’s dress or a vest with jeans, if the future wife chooses a striped T-shirt and a full skirt as her wedding attire.

Editor's choice: Russian-style wedding menu: which main dishes to choose?

Mostly, brides choose dresses of a classic cut with a corset and a fluffy hem, but with the only exception that the color of the dress, as a rule, resembles camouflage.

Decor is added from emerald-colored tulle, there may be ruffles and frills, but in no case are flowers and rhinestones, glitter and pretentiousness inappropriate.

If you want to get married in a white dress, then you can emphasize the peculiarity of the celebration with a bouquet that would remind you of the chosen theme, a belt and a blue beret.

Hair and makeup should be natural. Curls gathered in a ponytail or loose will be very appropriate. You can braid your hair around your head. We complement the look with modest gold earrings, and this will be quite enough.

How to save money on the services of a toastmaster, musicians, photographer, videographers - ideas

It is better to abandon the toastmaster and musicians. The couple's relatives can host the entertainment program, and a music playlist that switches automatically is even more convenient than live music. Savings – up to 50,000 rubles.

But what about the photographer and videographer? You can choose from the following options:

1. Call a photographer you know. If you know someone, they can give you a discount.
2. Combine the cameraman and photographer in one person. Saving 1.5 times.
3. Find aspiring photographers online who are building their portfolio. They are often willing to conduct photo sessions for a nominal fee or even for free, but in exchange for good recommendations.
4. Install the video equipment on a tripod and turn it on for the entire duration of the celebration. So you can refuse the videographer.

Disadvantages of holding a wedding at a stadium

Newlyweds who decide to hold their ceremony on a football field will have to wait until all the season's matches have taken place. At popular stadiums, even after this, you may have to wait until the couples who booked the field before you play their weddings. It may even happen that you will not fall into this gap at all. Therefore, the stadium must be booked a whole year before the wedding.

Weather

Bad weather can disrupt the entire holiday. Therefore, you should come up with a different celebration scenario in advance if bad weather suddenly happens. Interior areas of the stadium or tents on the field will help protect guests from rain or wind, but you will need to negotiate this with the administration in advance.

Price

This pleasure is not cheap.

Hall decoration

Of course, for such an appearance, photo shoot, etc., you need to select the appropriate hall. The most important thing is one color scheme. White and black colors are suitable. They can already be complemented with other shades.

The bouquets should be unusual - clubs, balls, aquariums made a la a swimming pool, tennis rackets, and the vase can be made in the shape of a basketball hoop.

Landing cards mean creative freedom. The name can be written on a tennis ball, soccer ball, glove, or on a small sleeve (if the chosen sport is swimming). Creative freedom also applies to table numbers

It is important to understand that bouquets, cards and table numbers should complement each other. So flowers in a “basketball hoop” vase will look good next to miniature basketballs with an “autograph” - the name of the guest

In this case, the table number will be perfectly represented as the game score.

Let the hall itself contain the necessary decorative elements that are used in sports. You can move away from the main topic and add dumbbells, a barbell (and for humor - a rubber one). In this case, guests will not be tied to a specific photo zone, but will be able to sit throughout the banquet hall.

Cocktail bar at a wedding

Organize a cocktail bar at your wedding, where guests can make their own interesting cocktails. Just provide them with a variety of different ingredients: from alcoholic beverages and syrups to berries, fruits and herbs. Well, to make it easier for your guests, print out a couple of cocktail recipes as an example. By the way, you can even organize a competition for the best cocktail and award the winner a memorable prize.

If you don’t like the idea of ​​a cocktail bar, then you can easily organize any type of wedding mini-bar at the celebration, for example, with marshmallows, which the guests themselves will have to cook on the fire, or a bar with cryo ice cream, which is effectively prepared specially for them prepared person.

Tip: when choosing entertainment for guests, consider the style of the celebration. For example, for a wedding in the Great Gatsby style, you can organize a fun dance master class, and for a celebration in a rustic style, painting wooden saw cuts in a wedding style is more suitable.

The portal www.svadebka.ws has collected for you the top 10 alternative entertainment ideas that can be organized at a modern wedding. Any of these game options is much better and more interesting than banal competitions, which everyone is already quite tired of.

Sport style

There are many types of sports, and depending on the choice of one of them, accessories and colors are selected.
It is important that only one direction is determined, and the decoration is chosen according to it.

Therefore, it is necessary to know the most popular types of sports and their distinctive features.

Sports for themed weddings

For themed weddings, almost all types of sports that can attract newlyweds are used. The main thing is that they are aesthetically beautiful.

1. Equestrian sport - the wedding is held in the fresh air, horses can graze nearby. Elements of jockey equipment can be seen in the outfits of the newlyweds and guests. If everyone is dressed comfortably, horseback riding is possible.
2. Football is considered to be something only men like to watch, but there are many women who support one team or another. Therefore, if both are partial to this sport, then the wedding is organized outdoors, next to the playing area.
3. Tennis and a country club are ideal for a wedding in this style. Such places are often adjacent to playing courts and a restaurant. But the price is quite high, so you can get by with just an open area with a lot of decorative things associated with sports.
4. Basketball can be played indoors, then the atmosphere will be more strict and correspond to the classical game. But if you want a lighter celebration, then open areas will add a touch of relaxation and informality.
