3. Pass the Bouquet Version One: Game is similar to musical chairs. Everyone sits in a circle. Hostess hands first person a bouquet and starts the music. Guests pass the bouquet until the music stops. Whoever is holding the bouquet is out. Last person holding bouquet wins a small prize. Version Two: Instead of a bouquet, hostess wraps a corsage in a gift box. Guests are told that whoever is left holding the box at the end of the game has to wear whatever in inside the box ALL NIGHT. Naturally, theyll assume its something embarrassing and will therefore pass the box quickly. PIÑATA TWIST: Instead of being out, whoever is left holding the bouquet, gets to pull a string!

11. Lucky You! Prior to guests arriving at the party, tape a variety of items to the bottom of different party items. For example, you can tape a coin to the bottom of a chair, a stamp to the bottom of a vase, a photo of the bride to the bottom of a dessert plate. Early in the party, ask everyone to look under their chair. Whoever finds the coin, wins a bridal shower gift (i.e., scented candle, bookmark, book, frame). Let guests know that there are x# of prizes to be won, they only need to find the rest of the items you have hidden throughout the party. When someone finds a hidden object, they need to call out and the gift will be awarded! PIÑATA TWIST: Tell guests that the piñata is full of treats for THEM. When they find a hidden object, they get to pull a string.

12. Sign Your Name Shower hostess provides a pack of Thank You Cards and asks each guest to write their own name and address on the stamped thank you card envelope. Then, raffle-style, the bride mixes them all together and picks a bridal shower winner to get a memorable gift. And the bride gets to take home pre-addressed Thank You cards! PIÑATA TWIST: Draw envelopes and read the names to see who gets to pull a string next. Thank You!

13. Lingerie Surprise! Before the Shower: Hostess asks guests to purchase a pair of panties for the bride. Each guest is asked to tie a message for the bride to the pair of panties, without signing their names! At the Shower: Guests sneak their gift into the piñata. When the contents fall out, the bride can hold them up, read the message and try to guess the giver. Hang panties on a line for a pretty and unique shower decoration. PIÑATA TWIST: Use any of the games weve shared to determine who gets to pull the next string!
