I'm having to give a wedding shower.  Does anyone have any good ideas as far as what to serve and what type of games to play?

why dont you play games like they do in ann summers, heres a few ...............\n\nPass The Parcel\nLike the children’s game, make up a parcel with about five to ten layers, in each layer place a forfeit or book a party, and the game prize can be put into the middle.\n\nYou need to make sure they have some music so you can play this game.\n\n\n\n\nMusical Chairs\nYou might think you need music for this game but you don’t only a set of questions.\n\nIf the ladies answer to the questions you read is yes, she must move one place to the right. If the answer is no she stays where she is.\n\nThis means people will be sitting on each others laps etc.\n\nIt is the first one to sit back down where they started. So make sure you have a long set of question just in case.\n\nIdeas for questions:\n1. Have you kissed a bloke today?\n2. Have you kissed a woman today?\n3. Have you ever tried toe sucking?\n4. Are you into kinky sex?\n5. Have you ever been caught in the act?\n6. Have you ever caught anyone else in the act?\n7. Have you ever tasted edible undies?\n8. Have you had sex in the last week?\n9. Have you had an orgasm in the last week?\n10. Are you interested in a part time job?\n11. Do you own a vibrator?\n12. Do you swallow?\n13. Do you want an Ann Summers Party?\n14. Have you had sex with more than one bloke this year?\n15. Have you ever slept with some one else’s’ partner?\n\nThe questions are endless; you can just make them up.\n\n\n\n\nPop Corn Game\nYou will need a bowl of popcorn, and some straws. It is best to put the girls into two teams, with a straw each and each team with two bowls (one empty and one with popcorn)\n\nThe idea is to transfer the popcorn from one bowl to the other, each girl transferring a piece at a time, so they all have a go. The team that empties there bowl the quickest wins. It is best to have the two bowls per team apart from each other because it makes the game more fun.\n\n\n\n\nMarsh Mallows\nFor this game you will need quite a few marshmallows and two volunteers who like marshmallows, also have a couple of bags handy,for the end.\n\nYou give each lady a marshmallow to place in their mouths, but they are not allowed to eat them, but they have to say either FLUFFY or FUZZY BEARS OR EJACULATION.\n\nThen you give them another marshmallow to put in their mouths and they say it again. The lady that wins is the lady with the most marsh mallows in their mouth, that does not swallow.\n\nThen for the prize give out a certificate to the winner and a little something to both of them.\n\nYou have the bags ready for them to get rid of all the marshmallows.\n\n\n\n\nToilet Rolls\nYou need two empty toilet rolls and a couple of vibrators.\n\nGet four volunteers and give two the toilet rolls and two the vibrators (turned on). Get the ladies with the toilet rolls to hold them between their legs (at the top).\n\nThen blind fold her partner and place the vibrator between her legs.\nThe lady with the toilet roll has the guide (by talking) the vibrator into the toilet roll.\n\nThe couple that does it first, wins. You can also use empty bottles and vibrators.\n\n\n\n\nBots and Chocs\nYou need two milk bottles and two chocolate willies and some thread, enough to tie round a waist and down to the ground.\n\nTie the willy on to the string and tie it round someone’s waist so the willy is dangling at the back.\n\nPlace the milk bottle on the floor in front of them. The then have to guide the Willy into the bottle (with out using hands)\n\nThe first one does it wins.\n\n\n\n\nPlay Dough\nMake some play dough:\n\n6 cups flour\n3 cups salt\n12 teaspoon – cream of tartar\n3 tablespoons oil\nFood colouring\n6 cups boiling water\nMix together and if too wet add more flour.\nKeep in plastic bag\n\nGive every one a piece of play dough, and ask them to design a new vibrator. The best one wins.\n\n\n\n\n+ OR – Game\nGet each lady to draw a line down the middle of a bit of paper and get them to write – sign on one side

A great and inexpensive thing to do would be to show up at the shower with your camera. Take photos of the shower and then after the shower, scrapbook them or put them in a small album and give it to them.\n\nPlus you dont have to spend $50 per person, spend 25.00 and get thems something small from their registry - then you'll be getting them what they want so they'll be happy..\n\nTry a bottle of wine for the couple with 2 pretty glasses in a basket - looks like more but is very nice. Or a bag of yankee candle votive candles in a basket that you decorate with a big bow. She'll love it.\n\ndo you have a cool photo of her and the fiance>? frame it - turn it into black and white or sepia and frame it -\n\nand besides - your friends dont want you to go broke they want you to share their happiness. I'm sure they'll understand - just go to the shower and enjoy.

Why in the world do people think that we WANT to play games when we go to a shower.... ANY shower!  They're always terrible.  Always too long.   Always stupid.  \nDon't ruin the luncheon by playing games.  Allow the couple and the guests to talk and mingle and simply have a nice time.

How about a 'hippie' wedding.  Your brides maids could come as 'flower children' with long skirts, bare feet and flowers in their hair.\n\nI think it would be cute!

I think it is very appropriate.  Even more appropriate in this case.  It gives those people who won't be attending the ceremony an opportunity to share their wishes with the bride to be.  Plus, it's not like the bride has the shower for herself...!  Others who love and care about her have decided to honor her by having a party to celebrate the fact that she is marrying.  I say go for it, and have a wonderful time!

You're screwed!!\nIf you're the groom.......... forget abt the game or else you'll be divorced the next day\n\nif you're the best man.........you have a chance, if u don't pay so much attention to the groom\n\nif you're just a guest .......... well thats what phones are made 4, emergencies lyk this. \n\n1) either keep phoning in on someone who will be watching\n2) get someone to sms you when something interesting happens\n3) if you have a radio on your phone just tune in from time to time\n\np.s. congradulations to whoever are getting married

It all depends on what kind of party you want...wild and crazy or more low key.  Here are some suggestions.\n\n-bar hopping\n-wine tasting\n-spa day\n-comedy club\n\nWhatever you do, make it fun and embarassing for the bride (it's tradition).  Make her wear a cheap veil and/or custom t-shirt indicating that she is the bride-to-be (you can get these at party stores or online, Ebay is great).  You can also look online for ideas for naughty scavenger hunts for the girls to do if you go out to the bars/clubs.

The best and cheapest is having the party in your home.Have some of your friends help out with the menu and decorations.Play adult games and maybe hire someone to dance for her(he doesn't have to strip down).Invite all her friends and family females and ask them to bring a naughty gift for her honeymoon.Buy alot of those party cameras to give out so that every one can take pictures for her memory book.Just have fun and good luck I'm sure you'll do great.

Games at a wedding reception? Aren't there enough things going that your friends can't entertain themselves. You must have a dull group coming...

Have her come over and have arrows leading to the bedroom, then go to suriseparties.com, check out what they have, order something different, and have a good time.  Try drawing a nice bubble bath for her, and wash her hair,etc. Make a nice dinner in the nude. Just spend a nice nite together watching movies, drink a bit of wine, or beverage of choice, and let things go. I did the arrows and IT WAS GREAT, had the wine, chocolates, and well we got a movie and just got up to eat lunch.  Had a great time. The surpriseparty.com, has a LOT OF GREAT ideas.  LUCK and have fun.

What about the Wine Tour and then home to have a lingere party or something like that? Doing this can kind of incorporate a bridal shower in to it. Get all he girls around,have some nice food and some wine that you may have picked up on the tour and then kick back, make some noise and have fun while gossiping and buying some beautiful lingere. That way, no one needs to drive, you dont have sleezy guys that think "hens night...Im in!" and no worries about spiked drinks or anything...just an awesome girls night in.

there are many paper & pencil games to do.  Like the dot game already mentioned.  Hangman's Bluff is another; SOS; Battleship to begin with.  For outside, there is foot races; who can do the best tumbling. soummersaults, whatever the imagination makes up--best impressions of Buster Keaton's or Charlie Chaplin's walk.  Have fun!

i believe that it is the same as a bridal shower, more formal. they can have food, themes and the groom to be may be there. i THINK.

Have a HUGE party at a huge backyard of a house with a pool. Decorate the pool with those floating candles, buy some tiki things, have a BBQ, get a LOT of drinks (alcoholic and non alcoholic), have some music (a dj if possible), and just invite a s*hitload of friends. If you want to blow people's minds, have an all guy party and hire a stripper... that'll definitely "blow" their minds *lol*
