Traditionally, sports showers are corny, silly, and awkward — both for the bride and the attendees. I’ll subject you (or your friends) to the usual humiliation of why not install some fun, fresh, and unique board games? You could spend hours thinking about it. Or you could read this article and save yourself sometime!
“Watch your words”
This game is not an event, but an ongoing exercise that – with any luck – should make the shower a little more interesting.
The first step is to write a list of words that are used in wedding showers and wedding discussions in general. Similar words “bride,” “wedding” “awwww,” “beautiful” “Flowers ,” “splendid,” “romantic,” etc. they are all good candidates. Once you’ve decided on a list of 10-15 words, write a list of enough notes to hand to each of your guests. Along with a note, hand each guest a little favor or badge. Bracelets, pins, and other wearable trinkets work especially well. A guest, whenever he hears another guest using forbidden words, has the right to steal that guest’s dining room. At the end of the party, whoever has collected the most ornaments gets a prize – more to get the ornaments!
“to stand by the cook”;
For groups that don’t know each other well, this is the perfect icebreaker game. Buy some cloths of ribbon or yarn, and when the guests arrive, invite them to “how much they think they need.” Don’t tell them how! Then, when everyone is gathered, ask everyone to talk about themselves and how they know the bride, but how long it takes them to wrap a piece of ribbon around her finger.
If you like, you can set rules for how fast or how slowly the guests wrap, or you can set the wrapping at a constant level. Either way, it’s a fun way to get to know everyone.
“Cake Contest”
For this, all you need is a batch of undecorated cupcakes – enough for each guest to have at least one, even if it’s always good for me! You’ll also need decorating supplies – ribbons, bows, edible ornaments – whatever you can find. Invite all the guests to take a cupcake and decorate it. Give prizes for cutest, most elegant, most hideous, most unique, etc. – and to spice things up even more, you can invite guests to different types of votes. Remember to take pictures before everyone digs!
Photographic Memory
For this prepare the bride having a colorful dress. The more things, the better – a scarf, jewelry, mismatched socks – any of them agree! Then, when the guests have sat down to the banquet and spent some time with the bride, they leave their room. Then give all the guests a pen and paper, and let them write everything they can remember from it. clothes For an even harder twist, ask them to draw with colored or crayons or collect them! The most accurate index / drawing skill wins.
(When the game is over, the bride should feel free to remove the extraneous accessory!
“Who knows the bridegroom?”
To prepare for this, write questions for the spouse, Newlywed Style game. You can either decide on your own, get ideas online, or read one of the many books that are out there to help couples learn the obscure things about themselves. Some of the classic questions include:
“If he could change one thing about himself, what would it be?”
“Who thinks there’s a better catch in your relationship?”
What is a dream job dream?
“What was the first coach?”
“What color is the toothbrush?”
You have an idea! Have the bridegroom submit his answers in full before the party, and keep them secret from the bride and all the guests. Then gather everyone together and write down those answers as you read the questions to the group. You will find out whether the groom knows the bride best, or if one of the guests arrives as a surprise winner. !
(If this game sounds like it has the potential to cause some drama, you can remove the program where even the guests are allowed to respond. You can consider this if an old friend or girlfriend of the groom attends when he can. It is not good to sit with the bride if the groom loses someone with whom has a history. Use your best judgment! It involves only the bride, and she must chew the gum every time she answers badly.
