The Children’s Table

Keeping children entertained at an adult wedding can be quite a task but if you add children-friendly décor and games (and hire a babysitter for the event), your big day will be just as pleasant for the little ones.

This kiddie table was designed to be gender neutral and age friendly to demonstrate how easily one can create a fun-loving environment for children at a wedding. Katie Dunn, owner of La Fete Weddings and Events, chose linens that are bright, vibrant and accented with every kid’s favorite food group: candy!

The eye-catching daisies add a pop of formality while still keeping with the whimsical theme. Out-of-the-box food ideas that appeal to kids of every age were served at this event, which was held at Prestonwood Country Club. Mini burgers and fries served in shot glasses, along with peanut butter and banana sushi rolls, converted all-American snacks into gourmet delights.

For dessert, the children were served candy-shaped mini personal cakes topped with each kid’s name, allowing the sweets to double as place cards. To make the cake place cards even more special and appealing to the children, the layers inside the fondant were rainbow colored. Crayons tied to tiny drawing notebooks and balloons painted with each child’s name were handed out as favors as parents picked up their children and their escort cards, making the day a memorable event.
