My sisters bridal shower is in a week and half and I am throwing it. One thing I am having trouble with is shower games. I only want there to be 3 games and simple. This shower is basically all the women in the family, aunts, grammas, moms. Only the 3 other 20-something bridesmaids will be there. Sis wants the shower to be simple and short, (as the fun bachelorette bridal shower is later that night).
So I've tried looking on the internet and there are so many games that are so personal; such as like the brides favorite color, movie, etc. The ladies attending the shower (besides the bridemaids), don't know those things about the bride. So I need more fun easy games. Any help or suggestions please!??
I am, unfortunately, still stressing about Savannah getting into preschool. Even though I have a backup plan, which will work and she will get into educational classes at the community center. I really would like her to get into the place so she will always have the same teacher for the rest of the year and it won't be so relaxed. Living in a state with a really bad school district really can really stress you out....now I understand why my parents moved us to the YL when we were younger. But me and Jaw are totally not in the time of our lives to be moving, so we have to make lemonade out of oranges basically. :)

The yarn game can be cute. Have everyone pick their only length of yarn. After everyone has a piece, each person has to talk about the bride as they wrap the yarn around and around their pointer finger. They can give advice, talk about how they met her, their hopes for the new couple, whatever they want. Sometimes it's sentimental, sometimes it's hilarious, but it's nice for the bride.
Or, you can give everyone an index card. Have them write advice (anonymously) on it. Someone reads the cards out loud, and your sister picks the advice she likes the best. That person gets a prize.
You could always do gift bingo, too. Make up bingo cards with typical shower gifts. Or you can find a generic ones online to use.
Lets be real. Bridal shower games are always cheesy. Have fun :)
Toilet paper wedding dress contest/fashion show! This is really fun. Set a timer for 5-10 mins and give each group a bunch of tp and they design a dress for the bride to wear complete with "jewelry," "bouquet," and veil. :)
PS- One great gift I got was advice written down in a little decorative notebook that the ladies passed around. It's a wonderful keepsake!
