Question 2

What red flags should I watch for with entertainment vendors?

Accepted Answer

No video of live performances (only edited highlights), unwillingness to visit the venue, no liability insurance, vague act descriptions, inability to customize for your event, and no references.

Question 3

Is a photo booth worth it for my event?

Accepted Answer

Photo booths are consistently among the most popular entertainment features at Israeli events. They provide instant fun, printed keepsakes for guests, and social media content. Options include classic, mirror, 360-degree, and video booths.

Question 4

What children’s entertainment should I provide at my wedding?

Accepted Answer

For events with many children, consider a dedicated kids’ corner with a babysitter/animator, face painting, balloon twisting, craft stations, and age-appropriate games. This lets parents enjoy the celebration.

Question 5

What is the ideal entertainment-to-event ratio?

Accepted Answer

Don’t over-program. 2–3 entertainment elements across a 5-hour event is ideal. Guests need time to socialize, eat, and dance. Entertainment should enhance, not dominate, the celebration.
