Wedding fayres are always an interesting mix of excitement, inspiration, and serious decision-making. When we exhibited at the Forbes of Kingennie Wedding Fayre, we quickly realised just how many couples are now looking beyond the traditional.
They don’t just want a wedding.
They want an experience.
Forbes of Kingennie Country Resort provided the perfect setting for the event. Surrounded by the Angus countryside, the venue attracts couples searching for a balance of scenery, atmosphere, and flexibility – exactly the type of environment where unique wedding ideas thrive.
We’ve seen bands, photo booths, and the usual ideas at wedding fayres – this is the first thing that actually made us stop.
Golf is more than just a sport; it’s a game of precision, strategy, and continuous improvement. Whether you’re a beginner learning the basics or an experienced player refining your swing, every round presents a new challenge. Understanding course layouts, mastering club selection, and perfecting your stance can significantly enhance your performance on the green.
Why Couples Were Drawn to the Simulator
Across the day, we had countless conversations with couples curious about adding something unexpected to their celebration. While live bands, DJs, and photo booths remain popular, many guests are now looking for entertainment that actively involves people.
That’s where the simulator naturally stands out.
Guests aren’t just watching.
They’re participating.
Throughout the fayre, couples were particularly interested in how a golf simulator can:
- Break the ice between guests.
- Keep energy levels high during quieter moments.
- Appeal to both golfers and non-golfers.
- Create memorable talking points.
- Offer something genuinely different.
It’s often the non-golfers who end up enjoying it most.
A Perfect Fit for Modern Weddings
One of the biggest misconceptions we hear is that simulators are “only for golfers”. In reality, wedding environments are where they often shine the brightest. Closest-to-the-pin challenges, relaxed competitions, and social gameplay naturally bring guests together, creating moments of interaction you simply can’t manufacture.
Venues like Forbes of Kingennie Country Resort are ideal for this type of experience. With flexible event spaces and a setting designed for memorable celebrations, couples have the freedom to build a day that reflects their personalities rather than following a fixed template.
This shift is something we’re seeing more and more – couples placing greater emphasis on atmosphere, guest experience, and creating moments that feel unique to their celebration.
A Brilliant Day at Kingennie
The Wedding Fayre was a fantastic event to be part of. It was great to meet so many couples in the planning stages, hear their ideas, and discuss how interactive entertainment can fit seamlessly into their celebrations.
For anyone planning a wedding and looking to introduce something guests genuinely talk about long after the day ends, a golf simulator offers a surprisingly perfect solution.
