It is likely that the guests at your party – be it crazy or low-key – will not all be acquainted with each other, or at least not well.It is likely that the soon-to-be-married couple will be the only common denominator for all your guests – so, to get everyone relaxed and having fun, play trivia games that ask questions about the bride and/or groom.This article has ideas to help you prepare everything, from organizing the games, the kind of questions you can ask, and what you can give as prizes.

Who Knows the Bride/Couple Best

Most of the time, not all your guests will arrive at the same time – so create a simple-to-answer quiz (either short-answer or multiple-choice) that you can hand to each invitee as they walk in.You can ask bride-related questions (Did Anne have braces?Who is Anne’s celebrity crush?Who was Anne’s first kiss?), or about the couple (Where did Anne and James meet?What embarrassing situation occurred on their first date? ).If you like, you can collect all the quizzes after everyone has finished and see who won, or (which is way more entertaining), have the guests grade each other’s quizzes and then determine the winner.

Survey Said . .

Another option is to prepare a list of questions and put them to the groom before the party, being sure to ask questions that the bride should be able to know or guess at.During the party, place the bride in the middle of the room and have her answer the same questions that you asked her fiancee; you then announce the answers provided by her fiancée.Sometimes the bride and groom will be in total disagreement, so this gives the bride a chance to tell anecdotes, as well as perhaps hear some surprisingly romantic comments from her fiancee.What is James’s favorite childhood memory? What is, for James, your best physical feature?

What Questions Should I Ask

Make sure you don’t lose sight of your guests and the type of gathering you’re planning.Bachelorette parties are usually more provocative than bridal showers.The more “intense” questions should be shared only with the bride’s closer (in age or intimacy) friends. If it’s something you wouldn’t want your boyfriend or husband’s grandmother to know, don’t subject your friend to that embarrassment.Try to find questions that are neither boring nor too scandalous – that way, everyone will have a good time. There are many things you could try for your shower and they might include free baby shower ideas, noah’s ark baby shower or baby shower invitations.

Think of some Good Prizes!

Once again, keep in mind the tone of the party and your guests’ preferences when considering prizes.Any of these options can be purchased without breaking your budget.A sedate bridal shower may have as prizes a silky scarf or perfumed bath salts, which are romantic without being vulgar.If your party is more on the wild side, you can get as explicit as you feel your guests will enjoy – scented condoms or flavored lubricant might be an option.

It only takes a little planning and some creativity to create a fun time for both the bride and her guests, and for you to save money in the process.
