Does anyone have any suggestions for some fun bridal shower games ?

I just went to a bridal shower and they had some cute activities that were fun -- and not embarrassing for anybody.\n\nBuy some cheap plastic wedding rings (the kind that are sometimes used to decorate favors). Give each woman a ring when they arrive and tell them if someone catches them saying the word "love" during the shower, they get the ring. At the end of the shower, whoever has the most rings wins a prize.\n\nBefore the shower, ask the bride for a word, associated with wedding, that starts with each letter of the alphabet. At the shower, give each woman a piece of paper with the letters printed down the side (and a pencil/pen). They are to write the word that they thought the bride said. Whoever has the most correct words wins.\n\nThis activity was a lot of fun, if you have enough women to participate. Divide them into groups of 4 or 5 and separate them. Then give each group 4 rolls of toilet paper, some ribbon, and some elastic bands (or anything you have handy). Each group is to pick someone to be the "bride" and dress her (using the toilet paper and ribbons) as they think the bride will look on her wedding day. The bride picks the team that she thinks did best and each member of the team gets a small prize. This is a great one as an icebreaker. Lots of fun. Be sure to have a camera ready!

* Bubbles\n* Water-guns 3 for $1 at the dollar store.\n* If you can borrow/buy a little plastic pool - they love water. If not - do you have a sprinkler? Let 'em play on that!\n* Games like pin the tail on the donkey are fun\n* Another game - don't spill the beans.  Use dried beans - like pinto beans - and let them use a big plastic spoon. Fill the spoon with a certain number of beans and have them walk from point A to point B.  The child with the most beans wins!\n* Finger paint/pudding.  Color vanilla pudding w/different color food coloring and let them 'paint' and eat on their paper plates!\n* Make plain cupcakes and let them decorate w/sprinkles\n* Silly songs and dances\n* Pinatas are fun - but watch how those little guys swing! lol\n* A puppet show with socks. Let each kid make a puppet using markers and all your mismatched socks. Glue buttons on for eyes and let them decorate the rest of the puppet w/markers.  \n* If it's a boy - let them make worms and dirt.  Make choc pudding and put it in little cups.  Let them add the crushed oreo cookies to the top (to make it look like dirt) and give them gummy worms to put in the 'dirt'. Give 'em a spoon and let them eat!\n\nHope those ideas help.  \n\n~Maxie

* Package a collection of family recipes in a small box with your names and wedding date printed on the back.\n\n* Small stacks of postcards asking guests to "Keep in Touch!"\n\n* Christmas ornaments in ivory, silver, or gold tied with a velvet ribbon (For weddings during Nov/Dec)\n\n* Miniature heart-shape, hand-painted boxes with a single delectable truffle tucked inside.\n\n* Tins of mints labeled, "Mint to Be Together."\n\n* A classic like Jordan Almonds packaged in a new way -- grouped in mini birds' nests or placed inside artfully decorated pill boxes.\n\n* Sparklers, especially for an outdoor Fourth of July celebration, will allow guests to illuminate the skies once the sun goes down -- and light up your grand exit.\n\n* Caramel apples wrapped in cellophane and personalized leaf-shaped tags are the perfect treat for a Halloween wedding.\n\n* Chinese take-out boxes filled with candies and tagged with "Life Is Sweet."\n\n* Glassine bags or tiny terra-cotta pots filled with herbs or flower seeds.\n\n* CDs of the wedding-day music or favorite tunes personally created by the couple.\n\n* Mini photo albums in fun colors are gifts everyone will use.\n\n* Scrolled astrological readings tied with sheer ribbon (ask everyone to write in his or her birth date on the RSVP cards).\n\n* Luggage tags boxed and tied with an "On the Road of Life Together" ribbon.\n\n* Personalized color pencils (some even come scented) are fun and festive.\n\n* Lottery tickets are ideal -- give your guests a chance at good fortune!\n\n* Colorful clusters of miniature floral-scented soaps wrapped in tulle to match your primary wedding colors.\n\n* Romantic: A copy of Shakespeare's love Sonnets or a book of favorite love poems. Custom-create a bookmark to add a personal touch.\n\n* a jar of honey pinned with a personalized tag inspired by James Taylor: "How Sweet It Is To Bee Loved By You."

corn hole, flip cup, beer pong, bad mitten, good mixed Cd's, horseshoes. just get everyone involved in something, my friends and I play pictionary after we've been drinking-- hilarious, every one goes completely nuts! So yeah, I suggest some sort of team activity.

I made a penis shaped pinata for my friend at her party and we had lots of fun whacking it!  We also played a game where people could "regain their virginity" by finding their cherry first in a big bowl of whipped cream.  These were both fun and made all the girls laugh.  Of course strippers are always good too!

twister...definitely some twister.\n\nLet's see...what else...streaking...you could judge participants based on speed or where/who they streak.  \n\nOne for the ladies...naked or bikini jump rope or trampoline.\n\nHave an erotic cake eating contest.  Kind of like a pie eating contest, only with erotic cakes...\n\nAnd a contest to see who can eat edible underwear off the opposite sex the fastest.  Might need to do that over the boxers and bikinis though.  \n\nOther Ideas:\nFit some drive-by moonings or flashings in.\n\nIncorporate old people somehow.\n\nHave fun!!

I am not sure if this is the same thing as a "come and go" event, but we have a very large family and often hold what we call "open houses".  I advise a 2-3 hour time frame for the event.  Refreshments can be very simple, especially if you hold the shower during the afternoon hours of 2-5 or 1-4 since this is after lunch and before dinner.  Use small plates, 6 or 8 inch and provide finger foods - fresh veggies with dip, cut-up fresh fruit, small appetizers such as little quiche or little sausages wrapped around crescent roll dough.  Dessert can be sugar cookies made in hearts with the wedding date or bride and groom's names written on them.  Miniature cupcakes would be cute, too.  Provide something that will "unite" all the guests since they won't all be there at the same time.  Maybe provide a recipe card and a 3x5 card in each guest's invitation.  Have them bring a favorite recipe on the recipe card and some "advice" for the happy couple on the 3x5 card.  Have a pretty basket available to put the card in.  As each guest leaves, give them something small as a momento since you won't be able to do much in the way of games.  Perhaps a small votive candle or a little potpourri wrapped in tulle and ribbon that match the colors of the bride's colors.  After the party, as the bride-to-be unwraps each gift, take a digital or poloroid picture of her with the gift and send it in the thank-you card to the giver.  Make sure everyone has a name tag since the guest list is large.  Another option may be to consider a different venue for the party.  A church social hall, a school gym or cafeteria, a park with a gazebo, someone's back yard, may be possibilities to allow all guests to be there at the same time.  Also, if you have anyone nice enough to ask what they can do to help, be sure to accept their offer and see if they can either help set-up or clean-up or perhaps bring a veggie tray or make cookies.  This will help financially and will be less stress for you.

any thing that is hand made and crafty looking.  Try hand stamped candles, home made soap with dried flowers tied to it.  Check out Martha Swerts "Weddings" She usually has a lot of good ideas.

you should be careful to use something that you won't have to clean up afterwards, your best bet would be bubbles and you can personalize them with colors of the wedding by tying that color thin ribbon around the neck of the bottle.\n\nI have also been to wedding were they release butterflies that is beautiful as well, also a great idea is a balloon launch.. have the guests release their balloons as the couple walks past them..  Good Luck!!!

You could make your own gift basket to be the same theme as her wedding.  Shower gels, lotion, candles, magazines, candies, champagne, picture frame.  Go to Wal-Mart, Target, Hobby Lobby, Kohls, etc. they should have all of the items listed above and more.

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.

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.

Okay I got a few:\nI saw one once that was more of a "bridal shower", but it was like a little girl's tea party. There was big over sized hats, gloves, feather boas, beautiful teapots, gourmet snacks. It was very cute, yet very classy.\nOr try having a "Sex and the City" night. Have everyone dress up, serve creative martini's and play sexy jazzy music. You could even play "Sex and the City" in the background.\nOr in lieu of strippers, you could have one of those "passion parties". Often they have party goers model some of the lingerie, which is a laugh riot! \nOr have a "prom night" where all the girls wear formals. Either serious pretty ones, or outrageous and crazy ones. As a favor, you could give each attendant a corsage and then rent a limo to go out on the town. You could have dinner at a nice restaurant, then go out dancing. The theme though is what makes it fun, because you're sure to be the center of attention wherever you go.\nOr (this one sounds complicated, but it's really fun) you could rent a limo and have everyone bring their digital camera's, then have a sexy scavenger hunt. Provide everyone with a list, then have the limo drop you off at a big gathering spot. (A place that has several restaurants, bars and shops. Like a main street.) Have everyone split into groups and run around taking pictures of different things like the man with the sexiest abs, the woman with the lowest cut top, sexiest shoes, someone kissing a stranger...you get the idea. Then have everyone meet at one restaurant for dinner at a pre-determined time, so you can compare your results over drinks and vote for the best pictures and most complete lists.\nGood luck, I hope one of these inspires you to do something creative!
