Bridal shower game questions

Ask the groom things like “Where did you first meet?”, “Who said I love you first?” and “What’s her dream honeymoon?”, record his answers, then play the Newlywed Game — guests guess how the bride answers. Our customizable Know-the-Bride game lets you type the real answers in minutes.

Need prizes for bridal shower games or game prize ideas? The best prizes are small and universally loved: a scented candle, a mini bottle of bubbly, a scratch-off ticket, chocolate, a face mask, lip balm or a small gift card. Keep a few spare — games often end in a tie.

Games for couples & co-ed showers

Hosting a couples or co-ed (Jack-and-Jill) party? The best couple games for a bridal shower — and bridal shower games for the bride and groom — are the Newlywed Game, He Said / She Said, Emoji Pictionary, Trivia and Find the Guest. Get the full guide to co-ed & couples shower games.
