Think that's fun. Yall should let us do the cake game!

The shoe game is a lively and entertaining activity often featured at wedding receptions, where the bride and groom participate in a light-hearted quiz about their relationship. Seated back-to-back, each holds one of their own shoes and one of their partner's shoes, creating a playful visual.

As the host poses a series of questions—ranging from "Who is the better cook?" to "Who said 'I love you' first?"—the couple raises the shoe that represents their answer.

This game not only invites laughter and joy from the guests but also showcases the couple's dynamic and compatibility, making it a memorable highlight of the celebration. The playful banter and shared glances between the newlyweds add a personal touch, allowing everyone to witness their love and understanding of each other in a fun and engaging way.

Leading the way with bright colors and charisma ladies and gentlemen🤣

We’re excited to introduce Harvey Wall, an "OG" member of the Granville Wedding and Events Expo and the dynamic DJ behind DJ Harvnation Entertainment! With a broadcasting degree from UNC Pembroke, Harvey has been instrumental in making GWEE a success since its inception.

Harvey's journey into the wedding and events industry began with a challenge. Frustrated with a lackluster DJ at his own event, his wife threw down the challenge "if you think you can do better then do it". And so, DJ Harvnation was born. Harvey’s passion for creating fun and memories shines through in every event he hosts.

Reflecting on his time with GWEE, Harvey fondly recalls the exponential growth of the expo.
From a modest beginning with fewer than 15 attendees to our last event hosting over 175 people and 40 vendors, it’s been an incredible journey. Harvey loves seeing the community come together and flourish, and, of course, he loves the delicious food too!

Harvey believes in celebrating every moment to the fullest. Whether formal or casual, he ensures every event is filled with good music and laughter. His philosophy is simple: "It's not always my fault unless it's good 🤣 We like to have throw downs at events. Can we be formal? Yes, but usually if an event is wanting music, it's a celebration. SO WHY NOT CELEBRATE THE BEST WE CAN!?"

Join us in celebrating Harvey’s vibrant spirit and dedication to making every event unforgettable. Follow us for more updates and insights from our amazing team!

Great question. What are YOU doing for your #2024 event?

2024 is reshaping how we celebrate! Weddingvibe.com recently spotlighted a significant trend in their 'AMAZING EVENT TRENDS FOR 2024 THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW' — the rise of digital invitations as a tech-savvy, eco-friendly alternative to traditional paper invites.

But let's dig deeper. Each option comes with its own set of charms and challenges:
Paper Invitations:
Pros: Sentimental keepsakes, tangible elegance, personal touch.
Cons: Higher cost, environmental impact, time-consuming process.

Digital Invitations:
Pros: Cost-effective, eco-friendly, convenient and quick.
Cons: Less personal, dependent on tech, lacks tangibility.

We want to hear from YOU. Are you a tech-savvy planner embracing digital invites for your convenience, or do you cherish the classic charm and personal touch of paper invitations? 🤔

Drop a comment below! Share your thoughts, experiences, and which side of the invitation debate you're on. Let's get the conversation started!
