Play Another Love Song Submitted by: by Missy B. of Clinton, Maryland You will need a cassette tape of snippets from songs that have the words love, loves or lover. You should have snippets from about 10-15 songs. After you play the tape, each person has to try to guess the name of the song and the artist/group that sings that particular song. For example, you could use snippets of "I Could Fall in Love" by Selena or "Love Train" by the O'Jay or "I Got Love on my Mind" by Natalie Cole, etc. It's a great game that a lot of the guests think is very unique!

Quiz The Bride Submitted by: Julie of Akron At my sister's bridal shower the guests got to see just how well the bride knew the groom. The maid of honor called my sister's fiancé and asked him questions like "What is your favorite pizza topping?" to "His favorite Bible verse" and "What was your most embarrassing childhood memory?" Even questions like "Where was your first kiss?" It was a lot of fun. The maid of honor had the answers written on a poster board and held the poster above her head as she answered each of the questions. Suprisingly my sister did awesome. It was fun watching her sweat!

Introductions Submitted by: Teresa B. of Upper Sandusky, Ohio In each bridal shower invitation, ask each guest to bring a non perishable grocery item of which its first letter begins with the initial of their first name. Inform each guest not to wrap the item. Some examples: Teresa - tomato soup, Susan - sugar, Mary - Macaroni, etc. At the beginning of the shower, have each guest introduce herself as she presents her grocery item to the bride. This not only is a great way to introduce the guests to one another, it helps the bride and groom stock their pantry. Another version is to have each person bring their favorite recipe for the bride and bring one item listed in the recipe.

Wedding Cake Game Submitted by: Maria This shower consists of ten tables with eight guests per table. The bridal party gave each table a medium size pound cake and a brown paper bag filled with a jar of vanilla frosting, gold and silver sparkles, toothpicks, chocolate powder, two fake gold bands with two white doves and so on. Each table was given about seven minutes to create the best looking wedding cake using the material and ingredients found inside the brown paper bag. The table who created the best looking cake received a prize.

Price is Right Submitted by: Maria Before the shower, the bride-to-be purchases about 5-10 household items (ie. cleaning products, coffee, toilet paper & so on). At the shower, for each item three contestants are called and each is given a chance to guess the price of the item. The guest who guesses the closest to the true price of the item without going over is given a prize. A lot of people enjoyed this one.

The "Potato Peeling" Game Submitted by: Maria Select about four to five guests. Each guest is given a potato and a potato peeler. The first one to finish peeling their potato wins a prize.

The Scavenger Hunt Submitted by: Maria Each group is given a big manila envelope with about ten items in it. Each group can have a different list. Such items listed can include a picture of your mother-in-law, a $100 bill, a calculator, a rosary, the shower invitation, etc. Each team is given one minute to fill the envelope with as many items as the can. At the end of the one minute, a bridesmaid collects all the envelopes. The team with the most amount of items wins a prize.

Oven Mit & Stocking Submitted by: Maria You will need a pair of oven mits and a pair of knee high pantyhose for each participant. Each player must try to put on the knees high pantyhose (over their own socks) with the ovens mits. The first one to finish wins a prize. All the other players get to keep the stocking and oven mits.

Guessing Game Submitted by: Maria Fill some large glass jars with jellybeans, uncooked pasta, or chocolates. Have each guest guess how many pieces are in each jar. The person who guesses the closest to the true number of items in each jar gets to take the goodies home.

The Centerpiece Submitted by: Maria The person whose birthday is closest to the wedding day gets to go home with the centerpiece.

The Piece of Yarn Submitted by: Maria When each guest arrives, have her tell you how long or short of a piece of yarn they want, without telling them what it will be used for. During lunch, announce whoever thinks their piece of yarn will fit around the bride-to-be's breasts. The guest with the piece of yarn that does wins a prize. You can substitute the breasts with her waist. It's quite a fun game when you look at the piece of yarn the guest asked for.

Mad-Libs Submitted by: Heather of Thousand Oaks Here is a fun game that will get everyone involved. Do you remember Mad-Libs? It is a pre-printed story that is missing all the major nouns, verbs, etc. Ask each guest for an adjective, noun, verb, or whatever the game sheet calls for and then read the story at the end of the "gift opening" session. You will soon see what great laughs this brings! You can find Mad-Lib books at any bookstore. They have ones especially made for with wedding themed parties. The words are given from each guest throughout the party. You'll soon be telling a story about when the "shocking" bride "skips" down the "slide" to marry her "skimpy" husband at the "store." Get the idea!

Veggie Letter Submitted by: Wendy J. of Amherst Write out a story about the bride and groom and have blanks in it to fill in with the names of fruits and vegtables. For example, "You are the ____ (apple) of my eye. ____ (honeydew) you love me? Yes, but we (____ canteloupe) now. If you tell me no, then I will go to the river ____ (endive) in." This is a fun and humorous game.

Cut The Cake Submitted by: Catherine of ShaoXing Put some flour in a teacup and pack it down. Then turn it upside down on a plate. You should have a little "cake" of flour. Carefully lay a penny in the middle of the "cake." Do not break the "cake." Now the first player has to take a knife and slice off a piece of the "cake." The object is NOT to disturb the penny. If you cut off too much, the penny falls and you have to fish it out - WITH YOUR NOSE! Slide the plate from player to player until somebody has made the penny fall. Then repack the flour and start over!

Love Songs Submitted by: Natalia L. of Miami, Florida Guests get 5 minutes to write down song names or lyrics with the word "LOVE" in it. Whoever has the most songs wins a prize. Guests get extra point if they sing the lyrics.

Hot Gift Submitted by: Rosa A. of Hackensack, New Jersey Prior to the shower, wrap a sexy gift intended for the bride-to-be a few times. After each wrapping, write a note. For example, "Pass this gift to the girl with the biggest breasts." As the gift is passed around, each person removes one wrapping and passes it to the next person according to what the next note says. The messages can also include things like "A person who you would like to hear singing a love song, imitating a poetic & seductive poem, etc." Make sure that you begin by giving it to the bride-to-be and ending the game with her. The last note can say, for example, "Pass this gift to the bride-to-be, the girl getting married within the next month, etc." It is an amusing and entertaining game which involves everyone, especially if you compose the notes according to your guest list so that each person gets a chance.
