Bridal Shower Game
From LoveToKnow Weddings
A bridal shower game is the perfect way to break the ice among guests who don’t know each other. It also helps to ensure a lively event. Most shower games involve a lot of silliness. This is a good thing as laughter will help to make the party a success. Some ideas for a bridal shower game are posted below.
Bridal Shower Game Ideas
Happy Couple Trivia
How well do your guests know the bride and groom? Can they describe their first date or name the groom’s favorite color? Give each guest a game sheet with trivia questions to answer, and go over the answers after everyone is done. The guest answering the most questions correctly wins a prize.
Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Game
This is a favorite bridal shower game. Guests split into three or four teams, with each team receiving six to ten rolls of toilet paper. One person on each team is to be the “bride.” The rest of her team members will design a wedding dress using the toilet paper.
Hang Out to Dry
This is another favorite wedding shower game. Upon arrival each guest is given a clothespin and told there are two words that are not to be mentioned. For instance, “Wedding” and the groom’s name. If a guest is caught saying one of these words, the person who caught the gaffe gets her clothespin. At the end of the day, the guest with the most clothespins wins.
What’s in Your Purse?
Before the party, the hostess should make a list of items commonly found in a woman’s purse, and maybe some not so common items as well. As she goes down the list and calls out each item, guests will look in their purses to see if they have the same. Each matching item gets a point and the most points wins a prize.
Bridal Bingo
Instead of numbers, Bingo cards are made using common bridal shower gifts. As each gift is opened, guests mark an X on their cards for matching items. Bingo wins the prize.
Advice for the Bride
This is a fun bridal shower game, one meant to be enjoyed without competition. All of the guests write bits of advice for the bride on slips of paper and places them in a vase or bowl. The bride reads each bit of advice aloud.
When to Play Games
Since a bridal shower game is to help the guests get to know each other and set the tone for the event, it’s best to schedule it before the gifts are to be opened. Since guests arrive 30 to 60 minutes before the bride, you might want to schedule an ice breaking bridal shower game before the bride arrives. By the time the guest of honor is in attendance, everyone will be communicating like old friends.
