Entertaining your guests is a key part of ensuring your wedding day is memorable and enjoyable for everyone. We have found some game ideas that can keep your wedding fun, and best of all: they're all FREE!
1. The Shoe Game
How to Play:
The bride and groom sit back-to-back, each holding one of their own shoes and one of their partner's shoes. The emcee asks a series of questions about the couple (e.g., "Who is the better cook?"). The couple raises the shoe of the person they think best fits the answer. This game often leads to hilarious and revealing moments.
Why It's Great:
- Always generates laughter.
- Easy to set up with minimal props.
2. Wedding Bingo
How to Play:
Create bingo cards with common wedding events or phrases (e.g., "bride's tears," "groom kisses bride," "first dance"). Guests mark off the squares as they occur during the event. The first person to get a bingo wins a small prize or just bragging rights.
Why It's Great:
- Keeps guests engaged throughout the event.
- Easy to customize and play.
3. Couple's Trivia
