So, your marriage is on the cards? It is time for a Bridal
Shower Party! At the bridal shower party, family and friends
will give gifts and lots of blessings for you.
The origin of the bridal shower is quite interesting and can be
traced back to Holland. It is an old story which states that a
Dutch girl fell in love with a miller who was very poor. When
she told her father, he forbade their marriage. So the young
lady decided to marry the miller and stayed with him, despite
his poverty. As the neighbors heard about the news of them
nearly starving, they came with help. They showered gifts and
money on the newly married couple. From the money and gifts
showered to the couple, they set up a good home and a good life
for themselves. Since then, this tradition of bridal showers has
been in practice. Though, today the celebrations of bridal
shower are grand and all full of gaiety.
No bridal shower celebration is complete without bridal shower
games. These games will add life to your party and keep the
guests entertained.
Bridal shower games really get the party going. You can even be
creative while setting the games for your bridal shower party.
In fact the more bridal shower games you play the better. With
today’s tradition of inviting friends, work colleagues and
family members to a bridal shower, games can be great way to
break the ice for people who don’t know each other.
Who Am I Bridal Shower Game
The game “Who Am I” adds smiles and vitality to the whole party
with the added benefit of being a great first icebreaker.
To play this game, all you have to do is to prepare some index
cards. On each card write a name of a famous personality. As
soon as the guests arrive, attach a card to everyone’s back.
Attach them in such a way that the guest is not able to see it,
while the others can. Then start the real test. The guests have
to ask each other for the clues, so that that they can know the
name attached to their back. The first person to identify the
correct name is the winner.
The Wedding Alphabet Game
The Wedding Alphabet Game is really fun. The game involves a
combination of wit and intelligence. The game is simple; the
host initiates the game by describing a wedding item, ritual or
tradition starting from the letter ‘A’. They will include in
their sentence the item or the culture starting from ‘A’. The
next guest adds another item or anything after that sentence
starting from ‘B’. This game continues as the sentences keep on
building. If a person is unable to add an item of the letter
they get, they drop out. The guest who stays longest wins the
game.
Caught In the Middle Game
The bridal shower game “Caught in the Middle” promises to bring
loads of laughter and activity to the party. The game is quite
simple. Everybody is made to sit in a circle, then a bag is
provided to one guest. As the music plays on, the guest has to
pass it over to the other guest. This passing goes on till the
music continues. As soon as the music stops, the one with the
bag in their hand gets caught in the middle. As a penalty, they
are asked to perform a dance, an imitation, a mono act or
anything. This bridal shower game adds excitement to the party.
It also brings out the latent talent of every guest that gets
caught in the middle.
Charades
Charades is widely known and played all over the world. This
game can be played anywhere and everywhere. The game involves
intelligence and recognition power. There are two teams made
out of the guests. One member of each team has to perform a
mono act on the name of the actor or a movie given secretly to
him. The guest only has to perform and not speak. The name of
the character or the movie has to be guessed by his team.
Within a time frame, if any team member guesses the correct
name, his team gets a point. In the end the team with maximum
points is declared as a winner.
These are just a few ideas for bridal shower games to help
create a great mood for the bridal shower party. They can add
excitement and joy to the whole party and are a good way to get
everyone involved, as there will no doubt be guests who don’t
know each other. So, get your party started with lots of bridal
shower games.
