After choosing the location and deciding if your event is formal or informal, you might want to consider including appropriate games and activities to keep your guests entertained. Plan, shop, and prepare the games, activities, prizes, and supplies in advance. Remember, the bridal party and groomsmen are there to help, so ask if someone can help with the preparations. After all, the fun begins with less stress on the wedding couple!
Here are some examples of some fun games and activities to help make your occasion great!

This could be a conversation starter for the table or used as a group game about the bride and groom (see below under Games). Each person tells a quick, but elaborate story, and everyone guesses if it?s the truth or a lie. If it?s about the bride and groom, guests can write down their guesses and after the game you can determine the winners.
