I love games that don't require you to interact with people you don't know. I hate those kinds of games so much!</p> <p>I love the recipe idea! I wish we had done that at my shower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509113 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 08:14:28 +0000 ElbieKay 2509113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: I love how my game is so versatile!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509112 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 08:14:25 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2509112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs.shinerbock: I like the pottery activity and @PinkElephant: picture activity. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509111 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 08:12:03 +0000 josina 2509111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also like Gift Bingo since it makes that part of the shower a little less boring.<br /> @MrsKerch:'s suggestion with the groom/bride trivia is fun...<br /> I've also done a 'how much do you know about the bride/couple' trivia sheet, with questions about when they met, how long they've dated, birthdays, first pet, etc. etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509090 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 07:50:05 +0000 PinkElephant 2509090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just played a fun one where someone had done a big poster with about 12 pictures of the bride at different ages. Guests had to write down their guesses as to how old the bride was in each picture; the one who got the most correct answers won a prize. It was fun because a lot of the photos included siblings, cousins, relatives, and friends who were attending the shower</p> <p>This was done concurrently with @ElbieKay: 's favorite game, so it was very low pressure to participate :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509080 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 07:39:30 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2509080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really like games, but I do enjoy activities that people can do as they please. A couple ideas:<br /> - Ask everyone to bring a few photos of themselves with the bride and have scrapbook material available for them to make a page.<br /> - Make a date-night jar and have all the guests write a date activity suggestion on Popsicle sticks.<br /> - Have all the guests write/draw where they met the bride and their name on an unfired pottery platter, then have the platter glazed and fired as a gift to the bride. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509022 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 06:05:11 +0000 MrsKerch 2509022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My favorite game is the one where you ask the groom a bunch of questions in advance about the bride and then go through all of the questions as a group and have her guess how he answered. It's usually super cute and shows some of the softer side of the guy, etc.</p> <p>ETA: have each guest guess how many correct the bride will get and then give a prize to the closest guesser. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509020 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 06:02:13 +0000 ElbieKay 2509020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like the game where people chit chat and drink cocktails. Sorry I know that is not helpful! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2509001 Tue, 29 Mar 2016 02:02:18 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2509001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Trivia and word games.</p> <p>Mad-Libs<br /> Gift bingo even if the shower is themed like lingerie or kitchen stuff<br /> Couple trivia or just bride trivia</p> <p>Ice breaker, have each guest write the year they met the bride and provide a short story about the encounter/ friendship over the year</p> <p>Is the honeymoon known? You can make that into an interactive game with just a few participants like pictionary or charades using films, famous people, or landmarks from the destination. </p> <p>Have each guest bring a favorite recipe to start the bride off with a recipe file of tried &amp; true recipes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bridal-shower-games-1#post-2508925 Mon, 28 Mar 2016 21:51:13 +0000 Miss Flamingo 2508925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello! I am a bridesmaid this summer and am helping to throw a shower and have been asked to help with shower games. Unfortunately, I am not really a games person so I am coming up blank with ideas that I think everyone will find enjoyable. What type of games do you enjoy at showers? </p> <p>Thank you for the help! </p>
