🎉 15 Bridal Shower Games Free Printables
Okay, let’s be real. Planning a bridal shower is a whole vibe, but sometimes the “fun” part feels more like “frazzled.” You want epic memories, not awkward silence, right? And definitely not blowing your budget on a bunch of stuff that’ll end up in the recycle bin faster than a bridesmaid can snag the bouquet.
Good news, bestie! We’ve got your back. We’re serving up 15 totally free, totally fabulous bridal shower games that you can print out and rock. No fuss, no muss, just pure, unadulterated pre-wedding joy. Get ready to be the hero of the day without spending a dime. You’re welcome!
1. How Well Do You Know the Bride
Think you’re a certified BFF? This game puts your knowledge to the ultimate test. Guests answer a series of questions about the bride-to-be, from her favorite coffee order to her most embarrassing moment (with her permission, obviously).
Pro tip: Have the groom-to-be fill out a card too, then read his answers aloud. The comparisons are pure gold, trust us.
It’s a fantastic way to reveal who truly gets her, and sparks some hilarious stories along the way.
2. Bridal Bingo
Not your grandma’s bingo, unless your grandma is super cool. Hand out bingo cards with common wedding gifts or phrases. As the bride opens her presents, guests mark off items on their cards.
Pro tip: Customize the squares with things like “something blue,” “kitchen gadget,” or “a gift from Aunt Carol” for extra laughs.
This keeps everyone engaged during gift opening, turning a potentially slow moment into a lively competition.
3. He Said, She Said
Whose words are these, anyway? We’ve gathered a bunch of adorable (and sometimes cheeky) quotes about the couple. Guests simply guess whether the bride or groom said each phrase.
Pro tip: Include some silly or slightly embarrassing quotes the couple has genuinely uttered. The giggles will be instantaneous.
It’s a fun, lighthearted peek into their unique relationship dynamics and shared history.
4. What’s In Your Purse
Time to spill your secrets (and the random contents of your bag). Guests get points for different items found in their purses, from a lipstick to a spare battery pack for their phone.
Pro tip: Award bonus points for things like a receipt from five years ago or a child’s forgotten toy. You know someone has one.
Always a hilarious reveal of everyone’s “essentials” and a surprising icebreaker.
5. Find the Guest Bingo
Get those introverts mingling without the awkward “tell me about yourself” interrogation. This bingo card has traits like “traveled furthest” or “is wearing heels.” Guests find others who match the description and get their signature.
Pro tip: Include traits that spark conversation, like “knows the bride since childhood” or “loves to travel.”
It breaks the ice beautifully and ensures everyone gets to know each other a little better.
6. Wedding Word Scramble
Your brain, but make it bridal. Guests race to unscramble a list of wedding-related words. Think “eddingw” (wedding) and “remynoce” (ceremony).
Pro tip: Throw in one ridiculously hard word, like “chuppah” or “boutonnière,” to really challenge the wordsmiths.
A quick, brain-teasing filler game that’s surprisingly competitive.
7. Bridal Emoji Pictionary
Speak fluent emoji? Prove it. We’ve translated common wedding phrases and movie titles into strings of emojis. Guests have to decipher the secret message.
Pro tip: Design your own with inside jokes or specific movie references if you’re feeling extra cheeky and know your crowd.
It’s modern, relevant, and surprisingly tricky, ensuring a good laugh when the answers are revealed.
8. Would She Rather
Get inside the bride’s head, no mind-reading required. Guests guess the bride’s preference between two wedding-related choices, like “destination wedding or backyard bash?”
Pro tip: Ask the bride to fill out her answers before the shower to prevent any last-minute indecision (or strategic guessing).
This game reveals quirky insights into the woman of the hour and how well her friends know her.
9. Advice for the Bride
Wisdom from the seasoned pros (and maybe some hilariously bad advice from the singletons). Guests write down their best marriage advice or well wishes on a card.
Pro tip: Provide a prompt like “My best marriage advice is…” or “Never forget to laugh together, especially when things get tough.”
This creates a heartfelt, custom keepsake for the couple to cherish for years to come.
10. Guess the Price
Are you a savvy shopper or totally clueless when it comes to household expenses? Guests guess the price of common household items or honeymoon essentials.
Pro tip: Use items the couple has actually registered for to make it extra personal and relevant to their future home.
A fun way to see who pays attention to those price tags and who might need a reality check.
11. Bridal Mad Libs
Fill-in-the-blank fun, wedding style! Guests provide random nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. Then, you read the completed “wedding vows” or “advice column” aloud.
Pro tip: Read the completed stories aloud with dramatic flair for guaranteed belly laughs and unforgettable moments.
Always results in absurd, memorable moments that will be talked about long after the shower ends.
12. Date Night Jar Ideas
Keep the romance alive, one idea at a time! Guests write down unique and creative date night suggestions for the couple on small cards. These go into a jar for the bride to take home.
Pro tip: Encourage ideas beyond “dinner and a movie” – think adventure dates, cozy nights in, or budget-friendly fun.
A practical, thoughtful gift that keeps on giving, ensuring the couple always has a fresh idea for a romantic outing.
13. Disney Love Songs Quiz
Test your inner princess knowledge! This quiz challenges guests to match iconic Disney love songs to their respective movies. Think “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” and “A Whole New World.”
Pro tip: Play snippets of the songs as guests answer to add an auditory challenge and a dose of nostalgia.
Nostalgic, sweet, and perfect for a romantic bride who loves a good fairy tale.
14. Wedding A to Z
Can you list a wedding word for every letter? Guests race against the clock to write a wedding-related word or phrase for each letter of the alphabet, from “aisle” to “zest for life.”
Pro tip: Give them a strict time limit (like 5 minutes) to really amp up the competitive spirit and quick thinking.
Surprisingly challenging and a great way to spark creativity and conversation about all things matrimonial.
15. Over or Under Bridal Edition
Bet you can’t guess these stats! Guests guess if a number related to the couple (e.g., “Number of dates before ‘I love you'”) is over or under a given figure. Provide the correct answer afterward.
Pro tip: Get some funny or slightly obscure stats from the couple beforehand to make the game even more entertaining and personal.
A quick, engaging game that reveals fun, often surprising, facts about the happy pair’s journey.
