Tips & Warnings

• Great games to play are pins and rice-get a bowl of rice and safety pins have the guest blindfolded then they will have to dig out as many safety pins within a time limit. This is a funny game!
• Another game suggestion is making wedding dresses out of roles of toilet tissue this is a two player game. The most creative design wins a gift. Family Feud is another great game except change the questions to something related to weddings and relationships. Also the who knows the bride best game write a list of questions about the bride (have the bride write the answers on hers) then compare them to the answers from the guests.
• Give away gag gifts like the last person to enter the party can get a role of toilet tissue or anything funny.
• Be sure to find out if there are guests coming who may have allergies or may be diabetic.
