Bridal Shower Party Game Icebreakers
A fun way to introduce all guests is to play a fun bridal shower
party game. These are great icebreakers which will allow the
guests to learn each other's names while having a fun time! Many
bridal shower guests may not know each other, especially if
individuals from both sides are invited to join in on the fun.
These simple icebreakers will allow a way for even the shyest
guest to break out of his or her shell and meet everyone.
Consider creating a fun bridal shower party game that starts as
guests begin to arrive. One great game that allows guests to
meet and greet is the great lovers game. Create cards that
display names of great lovers throughout history, for example
Romeo and Juliet or Anthony and Cleopatra. Give each individual
a card with one of these names written on it and instruct him or
her to find the match.
There are a couple variations on this bridal shower party game.
One variation instructs you not to show the guests whose name is
on their card, nor can they be directly told whose name is on
their card. Guests must converse with other guests and make
guesses to their secret identity. Once their identity is known,
they must begin the search for their historical mate.
Another variation is for guests to take on the persona of their
historical character. Consider providing small props for each
character, for example an exotic headdress for Cleopatra or a
bottle of "poison" for Juliet. Each guest knows the identity of
their own character, but others must make guesses. This
variation is excellent for smaller parties, since it requires a
greater amount of conversation between guests.
Another fun bridal shower party game icebreaker is a bit
simpler. Have each guest say their name, their relationship to
the lucky couple, and a favorite story about the bride or the
groom. This is not only an excellent way for everyone to
associate a name with a face, but also reminisce about the bride
or groom. Be sure to let everyone know to come equipped with a
suitable story to tell, so they are prepared to play the game.
A fun variation on this game is for each guest to write down
their story and have the bride or groom (or both!) guess who
wrote it. Have a designated reader so that the guest's
handwriting does not give away their identity for this great
bridal shower party game.
