Robots are crashing the party now!
Something Borrowed Something Blue and What about something REALLY NEW.
The top guest at UK weddings in 2020 could well be a robot.
However, the chances are this particular wedding guest will only be invited so they can be put to work, making the event extra special and efficient.
Robot hire for weddings is increasingly popular, not least as this highly advanced autonomous technology provides a wide range of services as well as making the big day even more memorable. For example, robots can add a unique ‘extra’ to photographs of the wedding. Either appearing in the pictures or taking them!
They can also be programmed to ‘chat’ to other wedding guests, even looking interested when great Uncle Bob tells his longwinded tales after too much champagne!
Robots to entertain or serve wedding guests now come in many shapes and sizes.
A company spokesperson for servicerobots.com explained: “Event robot hire is a fast-growing market, and this includes fully automated systems to make weddings run smoothly.
“Of course, it gives weddings the wow factor, but as contemporary robots are sophisticated and look amazing, they are far more than just a gimmick!
“For example, we are increasingly hiring out robot photo booths at weddings. This fully autonomous photography system glides effortlessly among guests, interacting with them in a fun way. Guests can take photos of themselves to print off instantly, or to upload on social media. It’s a fantastic record of the day for the happy couple too.”
That’s not the only way to integrate an eye-catching robot into your wedding theme though. As Company Spokesman explained: “Other wedding hire robots serve a more practical purpose. So, for example, robot bartenders or DJs are becoming increasingly common. It means your guests get the drinks and music they want seamlessly, flawlessly and in a fun way.”
Venues that host weddings are also grasping the competitive advantage that robot bar staff bring, as having an autonomous and programmable drink server provides them with an event team member who never gets sick, takes days off or mixes the wrong cocktails!
Company spokesperson concluded: “We can’t imagine that there'll ever be weddings complete devoid of human personnel – but anything is possible! It’s actually fabulously entertaining and memorable to weave robots in with existing staff at weddings and get humans and droids interacting.
“It can make wedding receptions a talking point - for guests and venue teams- long after the day!”
Service Robots has robot hire options to suit a diverse range of locations and budgets, including providing robots for Asian weddings.
