Shower Game Help!

Do you have a budget for small prizes? I would tell people to guess how many she gets right, and winner gets a prize.

I've never heard of a "punishment" for wrong answers. I'd be horrified if someone embarrassed me like that at my shower. Even if it's "in a fun way".

They did this kind of game at my shower. Every question I got wrong I had to put a piece of bubble gum in my mouth. At the end, I had to try and blow a bubble. It wasn't bad, out of 10-12 questions I only had to chew a couple of pieces of gum.

ETA: You could do something like have her hold a tray of eggs or something but, that could be messy.

What about giving her two bowls. Put a pile of M&Ms in one, and for every wrong answer she puts a chocolate in the other bowl. She gets to eat whatever is left in the first bowl. Silly but fun.

If I were that bride, I wouldn't want to play that game. Why would you want to embarrass her, even for fun? Doesn't sound like any fun for her.

Another way to play would be to print out all of the questions for the guests. Have the guests write down their answers during the beginning of the shower. Then, read the questions out and have the bride try to answer them. The guest that got the most right gets a prize.

I played this game at a shower for my friends wedding (I was a bridesmaid and helping host) and there was no punishment or embarrassment with it. If the bride is surrounded by her closest women, getting a question wrong isn't something to be ashamed of. I don't know my FH's shoe size, do you?!!

As a PP suggested, I'd have the guests get a print out and a few minutes to answer the questions first. ALSO have them guess how many the bride will get right (potential tie breaker). Then go through the answers out loud by having the bride answer first, and you tell her if she's right. Guest with the most correct answers gets a prize.

This might take the pressure off the bride too, makes it more of a group thing.

If your set on the bride doing something for wrong answers, maybe have her balance books on her head??

Hope that helps

When I hosted a bridal brunch for my best friend we did the bride or groom game. We had glitter red lips or black mustaches I had glued onto sticks. Everyone had a set of lip/mustaches. I read out the question and everyone held up either the lips of they thought it was the bride or the mustache if they thought it was the groom. The bride answered by holding up either the lips or mustache. You could do a small prize for the one who gets the most correct.

Are games a must really? As a frequent shower goer this is my least favorite part and I often find reasons to not be available to play. Have some good music, some wine, and time to hang out. Games that embarrass the bride aren't fun for anyone involved.
