Question about Bridal Shower Games - EDITED to add one more game

Have you girls ever heard of a game where everyone attending writes a memory of them with the bride on an index card, it's read aloud at the shower, and then the bride has to guess whose memory it was? Does this sound like a fun game? Any pros/cons?

There will only be 12 of us at the shower, so it won't be a lot of people.

Thank you!!!

Edited to add one more game, to see what you girls think: Have a questionnaire that had questions like what is the bride's favorite color, tv show, most embarrassing moment, etc. Then we have the GROOM fill it out. Everyone at the shower also fills it out, including the bride, and whoever gets the most answers that's the closest to the groom's answers win. So it doesn't matter if your answer was right - it's based on what the groom thinks.

Re: Question about Bridal Shower Games

it sounds like a lot of fun if you are close to the people at your shower. my shower is going to be filled with people i have seen very rarely so it would not work for us. i like the idea very much though!

Sounds like a much better game then the usual bingo...
I think it would be fun and since there will not be alot of people it could realy be fun.

That first one sounds great, since it'll be a small group. Definately not a game for a shower of 60+ women!
The second one sounds fun, too. I am having my West Coast Shower this weekend and I think we are doing something like this (my cousin called up to talk to FH privately and ask him questions).

Re: Question about Bridal Shower Games - EDITED to add one more game

About the 2nd game... I just helped throw a shower and I was in charge of games. We did a game called 'how well do you know your fh?' I asked him 16 questions about himself and at the shower the bride2be was asked the same questions about her fh and had to answer them correctly. if she didn't she had to put a piece of bubblicious bubblegum (the biggest pieces i could find) in her mouth. its fun, especially if she answers incorrectly because she ends up with a big wad of gum in her mouth. the guests can guess how many she will get correct and whoever gets it right or is the closest, gets a prize. I also have a famous wives trivia game where the guests have to figure out who the famous wife is by reading a clue. you could either hand out the clues, or read them aloud and have them answer. If you are interested in either one, just let me know and i will send them to you.

Re: Question about Bridal Shower Games - EDITED to add one more game

for my cousins shower this weekend we are doing 'get to know the bride' i got the questionaire off a website, i dont remember the website, but it has questions like:

Where did the bride and groom have their 1st date
where did the groom propose to the bride
where are they going on their honeymoon
....stuff like that.

Also doing the purse game where you see who has the most items you ask for in their purse

OOh, we did this at my shower.....since I know my FH so well, I only got 3 wrong...however, 3 pieces of bubbalicious is definitely a mouthful. My Best Friend was mad that I got all of the questions right. The three I got wrong

What is his fav superhero (I had no idea) - he said batman

What is his fav season - I said summer, he said fall

And last,

How many pets has he had - I said 10, he said around 30

He is a crazy boy
