Small wedding fun stuff

Hello

Like everyone else trying to get hitched in a pandemic we're doing a small wedding now and that leaves a bit of budget over.

Of the small wedding guests at least half are literally small (ages 2-11) and I want it to be fun for them. We have a house with a garden and we're hoping for good weather. I've got a list of things like... bouncy castle, karaoke, fireworks... zorb?!? Can anyone add some other fun ideas to explore?
Thanks

The bouncy castle alone will be a guaranteed hit with the kids. An ice cream truck would also be fantastic Maybe an drawing/craft area to occupy them when they need to power down a bit.

Your wedding sounds brilliant already!

If the budget could stretch to someone sensible to actively supervise the kids that would also be brilliant IMO (for their parents).

How about an Easter egg hunt, with wedding favours (bubble wands, little chocolates)

Balloons. Get lots, they pop on hedges. The big kids (mainly my hubby and his mates/brothers) spent a good while playing. Had some fun photos!

I put out toys that we still had from our youth, bop it, a cup and ball etc. Popular with the adults as we could sit and play too.
