In the stampede to put their inimitable imprint on weddings, brides, their mothers and wedding planners are going beyond the traditional wedding bands and D.J.s to bring in increasingly extravagant and often surprising Broadway and Hollywood-style entertainment to spice up their affairs.
Nicky Reinhard, an owner of David /Reinhard Events in New York (davidreinhard.com), which organized the de Kwiatkowski-Gilardini celebration, said that brides were now looking to “add a little twist, a little excitement, a little pick-me-up” to their wedding receptions. That has included, at one cavernous party space in New York, Cirque de Soleil-style performers suspended from the ceiling.
Razzle-dazzle moments are punctuating even otherwise unassuming affairs. Some have employed strolling magicians to do sleight-of-hand during cocktails; others have used rolling human dessert tables to add a startling live dimension to the traditional cake. And during the increasingly popular wedding after party, cigar rollers and air-brush tattoo artists add pizazz.
