Game IdeasHave you ever
wondered if what you know about Bridal Shower Game is
accurate? Consider the following paragraphs and compare
what you know to the latest info on Bridal Shower Game.
The bridal shower is an opportunity for the women in the future
bride’s life to honor her with a simple luncheon or get
together filled with good food, fun and games. Many bridal
showers feature a series of games that are not only a great
deal of fun but also allow a bonding opportunity for all of the
women at the party and sometimes serve the purpose of
completing a task for the bride to be.
A game that encourages the participants to get to know each
other is always a fun game with which to start the party. One
game you can play is known as the Name Tag Game which
encourages guest to mingle with the other guests. In this game,
the hostess writes the name of each of the guests along with a
word related to weddings such as veil, favors, groom, etc on a
name tag. The rules of the game are that you are not allowed to
say the word on your name tag or else you lose your name tag to
the person who got you to say the word. If you acquire one or
more additional name tags you are tasked with not saying any of
the words on either your name tag or any of the other tags. If
you say the word on your tag, you have to relinquish it to the
person who got you to say the word and if you say the word on
one of the other tags, you also have to give that person the
tag plus you have to introduce them to the person from whom you
had acquired the tag. There is usually a pre-determined time
limit for this game and the person with the most tags when time
runs out is the winner.
The Purse Game is another popular bridal shower idea. This is a
simple game where the hostess draws up a list of items likely
to appear in a woman’s purse and assigns a point value to each
item ranging from 1-5 depending on how unusual the item is. For
example car keys might be a 1 on the scale, a mirror a 3 and an
eye lash curler a 5. The hostess might also choose to allow 10
bonus points for the woman who can produce the most outrageous
item from her purse. The woman with the most points wins the
game. Another variation of this game is to have a list of items
and call out the items one at a time. The first woman to find
each item and hand it to the person judging the game wins one
point. After the entire list has been completed, the woman with
the most points is proclaimed the winner.
Another common bridal shower game is the Television Couple
Game. In this game the hostess will read out the first names of
a television couple and the guests try to guess the last name
of the couple. A few examples clues along with the answers are
George and Jane – Jetson, Al and Peg – Bundy, Ward and June –
Cleaver. One point could be awarded for each correct answer or
a point system could be established to award more points to
more obscure references. This game is also sometimes called the
Famous Couple Game and includes references to celebrities or
political figures and their real spouses such as Bill and
Hillary – Clinton.
Bridal Shower Bingo is another simple bridal shower game. This
game is played just like regular bingo except that instead of
using letters and numbers for the spaces, each space is filled
with a word or words that relate to weddings, love or marriage
such as wedding dress, favors, eternal, true, rings, etc. The
host makes up the bingo cards ahead of time and puts a piece of
paper with each word used on the cards into a large bowl.
During the game, the hostess will draw out a word and read it
allowed and each participant will mark that square on their
card. The first person to complete an entire row, column or
diagonal wins the game.
One bridal shower game that can be a real benefit to the bride
to be is a simple drawing. The hostess may purchase a few
inexpensive gifts for the drawing and ask each participant to
fill out an envelope with their name and address to enter the
drawing. The hostess then picks out a name for each prize. This
is a fun game because it offers the participants a chance to
win a prize plus it really helps out the guest of honor because
she can use the envelopes to send out her thank you cards after
the party.

Bridal Shower Game. Can you think of ways to apply what's been
covered so far?
The Who Am I Game is another bridal shower game that encourages
guests to interact with each other. In this game, the host
prints out pictures of characters from romantic books or movies
and tapes one character to the back of each guests so that
other guests can see the picture but the person wearing the
picture cannot. The point of the game is to ask other guests
questions where the answer is either yes or no to try to
determine who is on the picture on your back. At the end of the
party, each guest takes a guess at who is depicted in the photo
on their back.
The Wedding Jumble is another fun bridal shower game. For this
game the hostess will prepare a list of words related to a
wedding day such as toast, limousine, receptions, and vows.
Next the hostess will scramble each word so that the letters
are out of order and provide each guest with a copy of the
scrambled words. The guest will be given a set amount of time
to unscramble the words and the person who unscrambles the most
words wins. If more than one person gets all of the words
correct then the person who did so in the fastest time is the
winner.
The Wedding Day Obstacle Course is another game that can really
help out the bride. In this amusing game each guest is timed
individually on how fast they can complete a series of tasks
such as wrapping a wedding favor, addressing envelopes, filling
out a place card, assembling a centerpiece, or whatever other
projects the bride has in progress that can be incorporated
into the game. Not only is this a game that is both fun to
watch and participate in but it also helps the bride to
complete some of the tasks on her list.
The Bridal Shower Memory Game is also very popular. The typical
way to play this game is to have a tray filled with various
household items. Bring out the tray and allow the guests to
study the items for a few minutes and then take the tray away
and ask questions about the items such as, where the spoon was
and what color was the spatula. This game could also be
modified to have one of the guests bring the tray out and then
leave the room to take the tray away. You could then catch the
guests by surprise by asking questions about the person who
carried the tray such as what color shirt were they wearing or
on which finger was she wearing a ring instead of asking
questions about the contents of the tray.
The Price is Right Game can also be a great deal of fun at
bridal showers and can serve to benefit the bride as well. For
this game the hostess will purchase about 10 different items
that will be useful for the couple such as towels, soap
dispensers, household cleaners, etc. and have the guests try to
guess the price of either all the items combined or each item
individually. This is not only a fun game but the bride also
gets to keep the items which makes it useful for her.
All of these games are a lot of fun to play at a bridal shower
and they encourage the guests to get to know each other in a
casual atmosphere. Some of these games even serve the purpose
of helping to complete some of the bride’s last minute
projects. The fun of these games is that they help people to
get to know each other better which is helpful especially if
the bride and grooms’ families don’t know each other well.
