How to Create Your Own Wedding Dress Games

For a wedding dress game, all you need is toilet paper.

No wedding shower would be complete without wedding dress games. However, the same wedding dress games, such as making toilet paper dresses for the bride-to-be, have been played time and time again. Create your own wedding dress games, and make the next bridal shower you host a fun and exciting one. There are wedding dress games for every bride. If the bride likes art, challenge bridal shower attendees with a drawing game. Divide party guests into teams and have each choose an artist. Blindfold the artist and have her teammates instruct her how to draw the bride in her dress. The best drawing wins. If the bride is a fashion lover, have teams cut up old wedding dresses, alter them and redesign them. You can also do this with dolls wearing wedding dresses. Buy sequins and other decorations, and have attendees turn the dolls' boring dresses into exciting ones. The possibilities are endless.

Instructions

1. Gather ideas about what kind of wedding dress games the bride-to-be will enjoy and work from there.

2. Visit bridal websites, such as TheKnot.com, to get ideas about wedding dress games. Consult forums, and let the online community be a resource for information. At BridalShower.com, you will find a large selection of wedding dress and bridal shower games, including a game that suggests all shower guests draw a picture of the bride in her wedding dress. The pictures are then given to the bride as mementos.

3. Decide on how much you are willing to spend on wedding-dress games. You can spend as little as $10 on large pieces of paper and markers or up to hundreds of dollars on old wedding dresses to destroy. Discuss your budget with the wedding party so you know how much you can spend on supplies.

4. 

   Encourage creativity with wedding dress games.

   Brainstorm ideas for wedding dress games. You may want to begin with a classic game and expand upon it. For example, take the toilet paper game one step further: Purchase cheap plastic tiaras, shiny craft supplies and makeup. Then, divide attendees into teams and see who creates the best overall wedding look.

5. Write each wedding dress game down, along with a list of instructions for each game. You will want to ensure that you have all rules and regulations decided in advance to avoid confusion later.

6. Send the information about the wedding dress games to all members of the wedding party to make sure they approve and see if they have any other ideas.

7. Purchase all necessary supplies for the wedding dress games. Also, purchase small prizes for the winners of each game. Boxes of chocolate, lottery tickets and small gift certificates to local chain stores make fun and appreciated gifts.

8. 

   Funny pictures make great memories.

   Bring a camera and have it ready at all times during the wedding dress games. Pictures from these events will make great additions to the bride's wedding album.
