MATERIALS NEEDED
What better way to get guests talking then to make it part of a game. It’s also a nice way to help pass the time with guests waiting for everyone to arrive or while you finish setting up.
Directions
Make a set of ID cards with the names of famous “wives”. They could be actors, politicians, singers or anyone in the news. If you are having a theme bridal shower, use names of famous wives related to the theme. The famous wives don’t always have to be “real” people. They could be famous fictional and cartoon characters as well.
As each guest arrives at the bridal shower, tape the ID on her back so she doesn’t know who she is. The game is that everyone has to guess their own identity by asking the other guests yes or no questions. They could be questions like “Am I fictional?”, “Am I living?”, “Am I an actress (author, singers, etc)?”. The others can only reply with a simple yes or a no. The first person to guess who they are wins! You stop at the first winner, or can keep the game going for a second and third prize, or until everyone guesses who they.
This is a great way to get your guests mingling and will help even the shyest of guests break the ice since they will need to find out “Who Am I?”
