Bridal Shower Game Ideas
After all these years, hostesses and guests are still playing
bridal shower games. Bridal shower games never seem to grow
old, and guests who go to a bridal shower just expect that at
some point during the shower they will be asked to play a game.
Most guests are good sports and go right along with the bridal
shower games.
The Jumble Game
This is one of the easiest bridal shower games ever. Pass out
preprinted sheets of lots of scrambled wedding words, 30 or 40
words if possible. These puzzles are going to be fairly easy to
figure out, so it has to be a time trial. Give the guests a
very short amount of time to complete these scrambled words, so
adding a time limit will make the game competitive.
Spot the Bride and Groom
This bridal shower game is fun if you are having the shower in
a large house or an outdoor area where there are lots of hiding
places. Go to a craft store and buy several small, inexpensive
plastic cake-topper bride and grooms. Before the shower, hide
these toppers all over the house or yard – in all the rooms
where guests will be allowed to mingle.
Hide them on mantelpieces and in bookcases; on lamps and on top
of picture frames. Give each guest a small bag when he or she
arrives, and show them a sample of what that they are looking
for. Throughout the event, during the other games, during the
opening of the presents, and so forth, guests should be on the
lookout for these brides and grooms. If they see one, they
should grab it and put it in their bag. At the end of the
night, the guest who has collected the most plastic bride and
grooms wins a prize.
The Memory Game
The memory game is an old favorite that anyone can play. Gather
a lot of common, everyday items like a garter, a ring, an
invitation, a cake knife, a veil, and the like. Arrange all
these items on a tray. Bring the tray into the room with a
towel or cover over it.
Then let guests look at the items for a short period – 60 to 90
seconds, depending on how many items you use. Now cover the
items back up. Give each guest a pad of paper and a pen, and
let them have two minutes to write down all the items they saw.
The guest who accurately writes down the most items wins the
game.
