Although games aren't played at
every bridal shower, they are great ice breakers and can be lots of
fun! Shower games are always a terrific idea if the guests don't
know each other that well since they get the guests talking with each
other. Generally, you will play 3-6 games at a bridal shower,
depending on the length of time needed for each game.
If you are hosting a bridal
shower, you should determine ahead of time approximately how many games
you'd like to play, and which ones. You'll also need to decide
what you'd like to use for prizes - they don't need to be anything
elaborate. You can find a ton of great prizes at your local dollar
or discount store, without having to pay a fortune. Following are
some inexpensive ideas for terrific prizes:
-
Picture Frames
-
Coffee Mugs
-
Candy or Food Goodies
-
Bath Beads or Soaps
-
Candles
-
Potpourri
-
Stationary
-
Shower Decorations
The winner of each game
should receive a prize. In the case of a tie the prize
should go to the guest that hasn't yet won a prize, or if
neither guest has won a game yet ask the bride-to-be to select a
number between one and fifty, whoever is closest wins the prize.
Be sure to have enough
pens and paper handy for all the invited guests. You
should also think about what the guests will use as a writing
surface - clipboards or books will work just fine.
