There is so much that goes into planning a wedding and coming up with unique and unusual wedding entertainment ideas can be a headache. You want to create a beautiful and memorable experience for your guests, but you also want them to have a great time while attending your wedding. This is why finding entertainment is so crucial to making your wedding the very best it can be. We’ve come up with a few unusual wedding entertainment ideas that are guaranteed to have guest talking about your special day, even after it is over!
Amazing and Unusual Wedding Entertainment Ideas
The day has finally come, the one you have been planning since you were little- your wedding 
day! The preparations may be well underway or just beginning, but no matter what stage of the process you want it to be perfect. You hope the location, the guests, the meal, the photography, and entertainment are everything you have always dreamed of. Usually, couples are not thinking about the wedding gift they will receive or how to create something meaningful after the event is all over. There is an innovative new idea that has started to become a popular wedding entertainment option that includes a keepsake for you always to remember the joy and thrill of your wedding day. There is an entertainer named Heidi Schwartz, who not only entertains your guests but provides a unique wedding gift to display in your home. She sets up an art studio somewhere in your event and paints your event, like your wedding, as she sees it. Guests can watch her while she fluidly paints the scene before her and as a bonus, you get to keep the finished painting as a wedding gift.
Wedding planning can be stressful. There are so many things to do. Moreover, a schedule you have to keep to make sure you get everything accomplished or secured in enough time. The venues have to be reserved 9-12 months ahead of time, and your photographer has to be reserved right away as well. Wedding sites and photographers book up so early in advance along with so many other wedding details. However, you can easily get your wedding entertainment out of the way with Heidi Schwartz. She will dazzle your guests with the way she seamlessly paints the scene on display. It creates the imagery of a moving picture and captures the beauty and life of your wedding. She does not need much space and will not interfere with the other details of the party. The entertainment can be placed somewhere with a full view of the room and as central or as inconspicuous as you desire. It is an amazing sight to see, and guests will enjoy checking in throughout the length of the party to see how the painting has evolved.
Live Event Painting is the Perfect Wedding Gift
Heidi Schwartz set out to be a musician in Nashville. As she was pursuing classes in the music program at Belmont University, she decided to start painting. She found it was an excellent way of communicating and expressing the thoughts and feelings inside of her. She began to put it on canvas and discovered a new love. Heidi has captured everything from corporate events to birthday parties to weddings. Heidi says she gets lost in the painting and takes great delight in creating something meaningful for her clients. She includes the objects displayed, abstract items throughout the room and the feel of the event in the painting. Heidi does work within a schedule, which is usually about three hours long for the painting to be finished. Three hours is plenty of time for a reception that will most likely last 4-5 hours. It will provide wedding entertainment while also allowing the party to be in full swing and not taking away from the joy of your wedding day. Heidi’s painting will make your wedding feel like an even classier event and will surprise your guests.

It is a unique experience your guests will not forget and that you will remember forever every time you look at the painting hanging in your house!
What is the most unusual wedding entertainment?
Weddings have turned into a redundant string of baby’s breath and line dances. There are only so many repetitions of the ChaCha slide a sane adult can handle, and I am sure you exceeded that limit four weddings ago. You may scoff and swear you will never have this awful singer or that outdated DJ at your celebration. However, when it is your turn to plan, what better wedding entertainment do you have in mind? Here are a few unique groups to help you think outside the realm of ordinary entertainment and will save you from hiring the neighborhood garage band.
Wedding Entertainment Beyond The Average Wedding Singer
This trio features three incredibly talented violinists. They have a wholesome, elegant sound that will add class to your reception in a way only string instruments can. The String Angels take modern songs and interpret them into a classical form, allowing your guest to experience music they love in a whole new way.

Street-side painters are entertainers who add delight to any stroll down Main Street. They bring joy on an average day, so why not have one paint your big day? Heidi Schwartz is a vibrant artist who will capture her inspiration from your wedding reception and bring it to life on canvas. Allow your guests to visualize the journey of creating a live event painting, rather than being limited to admiring the final product. The memory of your event will be embodied through acrylic brush strokes and all the guests in attendance will represent some piece of the painting, just as they do in your life.
Three Waiters is a smart trio of entertainers who pose as a part of your waiting staff before revealing themselves as the opera singers they are.
