The First Dance

• Instead of picking a traditional romantic ballad for their first song, some couples pick a more upbeat tune such as "Margaritaville" or "Brown Eyed Girl." Guests won't expect it, and surprise is one of the essential elements of comedy.
  
  

Toast

• One of the funniest ways to liven up a wedding is by creating fun and humorous toasts. Anyone can write a toast that makes people teary-eyed, but it takes someone special to write one that makes people laugh.
  
  

Shoes

• Guests expect brides to wear traditional white shoes, but what if she dons a pair of running shoes under her dress? Just a flash of hot pink running shoes is enough to make people smile.
  
  

Cake

• The cake itself can be funny, especially when done by a professional. A cake that recreates how the couple met or where they took their first vacation can easily make others smile.
  
  

Personalized Centerpieces

• Rather than using flowers for the centerpieces, a centerpiece that uses the couple's interests can be amusing. Imagine a centerpiece full of golf balls and high heels shoes instead of flowers.
