Try Using Trivia Games at Your Bacheloretter Party To Make It Exciting

November 22, 2009

It is likely that the guests at your party – be it crazy or low-key – will not all be acquainted with each other, or at least not well. One of the best ways to break the ice and have fun is by playing trivia games based on the bride and/or groom, since the couple is probably the one thing all your guests will have in common and will be interested in.Read on to get ideas on organizing the games, the types of questions that you can include, and items you can give as prizes.

Bridal/Couple Trivia

Since not everyone will arrive at the same time, you can write a short-answer or multiple-choice quiz that each guest receives upon arrival.The questions can be bride-related (When is Anne’s birthday?What is Anne’s favorite animal for a pet?Who was Anne’s first boyfriend?), or about the couple (Where did Anne and James meet?What did James bring as a gift on their first date? ).One way to find the winner is by simply collecting the quizzes after everyone has finished, or (which is likely to be more fun), give everyone someone else’s quiz to “grade” and see who won.

A Match Made in Heaven

Another idea involves asking the groom questions, beforehand – questions that the bride should be able to answer, as well.Then, during the party, have the bride sit front-and-center, and ask her each of the questions you asked her finacee, revealing what his answers were.Often the bride will get to hear some surprising compliments, and the guests may get to hear anecdotes, especially if the questions are a bit scandalous or if she disagrees with her fiancee.What is James’s favorite childhood memory?What did James first notice about you?

How to Choose Your Questions

Keep in mind your guests and the tone of the party.Bachelorette parties are usually more provocative than bridal showers.The relationship of the guests to the bride should be the deciding factor when you consider more risque questions.If the answer to any given question would make you blush around your boyfriend or husband’s grandmother, then don’t make your friend suffer that embarrassment.The idea is to create an environment where everyone feels interested in the topics, but not uncomfortable with the amount of disclosure. There are many things you could try for your shower and they might include free baby shower ideas, noah’s ark baby shower or baby shower favors.

Think of some Good Prizes!

Again, it is important to award prizes that fit with the theme of the party and the tastes of your guests.None of the following ideas cost more than ten dollars – most are much less.If your party is more on the “calm” side, your prizes should be romantic without being vulgar – a shimmery body cream or a pair of pretty briefs.Now then, if the event is a bit racier in tone, you can give more scandalous prizes, such as edible underwear or fishnet stockings.

It just takes a little time and organization to create games that are both inexpensive and fun for all your guests.
