Wedding shower games for couples on Offbeat Bride

Sometimes wedding shower games can tend toward the cloying and even downright embarrassing. Even if you’re not planning a wedding shower for a couple, the activities at showers can feel silly — and if non-frilly types are attending… you probably don’t want to play girly games like OMG PURSE RAID or THE LINGERIE GAME TEE HEE HEE.

For those of you looking for a non-embarrassing (but still kinda romantic) wedding shower activity, we have a great wedding shower game from a reader named Catherine:

I made a movie-quote matching quiz for my cousin’s wedding shower. It was matching famous romantic film titles with quotes from the film! It was clearly non-gendered, and not all personal and awkward for the couple but still has a romantic twist.

I also included old movies to appeal to the grannies, and newer movies like some ’90s stuff, and then The Great Gatsby for the younger folk. It worked out really well! The prize was a DVD of Casablanca, which cost me $12 at Amazon.

The joy of this movie-matching game is that you can totally customize it to your guests! Catherine provided a free printable version of the quotes and movies that she used, but you can edit the movies and quotes to be whatever you want… geeky movies? Horror movies? Even your favorite TV shows!
