So, one of the largest challenges for destination weddings is what to do with the kids! There is the always dreaded children's table which promises some sort of distraction during the reception. One of the coolest ideas that we have done is to set up a craft corner where the kids can get their caricature done, make some really fun take away items or even take place in a group project like the chains of love concept. This is where each child puts a message on a construction paper chain and they are attached and presented to the couple at the end of the reception. It really is all about keeping the kids busy with something fun to do. We suggest that you don't be so conerned with design and decor for this area rather have some really fun things to do.
Great post Lawson! Moms can totally appreciate keeping the kids entertained, especially at a wedding!
