Bridal Shower Games - Box of Questions

It’s no secret that planning a wedding is hard, and sometimes stressful, work. There’s the location to think about. The reception. The food. The dress. The list goes on and on.

In fact, it can get so stressful that the bride and wedding party can forget that the events leading up to the Big Day are supposed to be fun! That’s why throwing a bridal shower for that bride in your life is a great way to help the bride and wedding party relax and have fun.

A bridal shower is usually thrown by the bride’s maid of honor. It usually consists of an afternoon where female friends and family of the bride gather for food, drinks, gifts and fun. The main draw of the shower (for the bride at least) is the gift giving part. However, another draw of the bridal shower can be the fun bridal shower games!

But, how many fun bridal shower games do you know? If the answer is none, don’t fret.

  • How Well Do You Know the Bride – This game centers on the most important person at the shower: the bride! To play, first compile a list of at least ten questions about the bride – the more challenging, the better. Then pass out paper and pens to each attendee. The person who answers the most questions correctly wins a small prize (that you decide on – maybe something as simple as a picture frame or candle.)
  • Bridal Shower Bingo – This game works just like the traditional bingo game, but you replace the numbers with things commonly found around weddings – words like dress, flowers, presents, etc. To set it up, simply draw a bingo square on a sheet of paper (or you can design one on a computer. Next, make the bingo caller’s word set. The first person to call “bingo” during the bridal shower bingo game wins a fun prize.
  • What’s in Your Purse? – Before the shower, compile a list of 20 things commonly found in a woman’s purse. Assign a point value to each item – the more uncommon the item, the more points. For example, a coin purse would receive one point, but a guest with a nail file would receive three points. Then, during the game, ask guests to tally up their purse “point value.” The guest with the most points wins a prize.

As you can see, there’s no shortage of fun bridal shower games you can play with the bride-to-be and her guests. The only limit? The amount of creativity you want to put into it!  If you decide you still need more games to play check out Bridal Shower Games  and Bingo Games that come pre-packaged and ready to go for the shower.
