Regardless of what type of hen party you've got planned, your pre-wedding bash can be taken up a notch by including a couple of well-chosen hen party games on the itinerary. The How Well Do You Know the Bride game is a long-time hen party favourite of ours, not only because it's easy to play, but because it always gets the good vibes flowing (and the bride laughing)! Here, we're bringing you a simple guide to playing the How Well Do You Know the Bride? game, and, in an effort to take a large chunk of work off your hands, we've created a super handy printable quiz sheet for you to use too. It couldn't be easier!
What you need to play the How Well do You Know the Bride? game
- Lots of copies of our How Well do you Know the Bride? printable quiz (which you'll find below) - you need one for each guest, including the bride
- Pens or pencils - enough for everyone
- A prize - this could be anything from a bottle of bubbly to a T-shirt with the bride's face on it!
How do you Play the How Well do You Know the Bride game?
- Give the bride a copy of the quiz and get her to fill in her answers. This can be done in the lead up to the party, or on the day, if there's spare time. For example, while travelling to the venue.
- On the day, gather all the guests in one place to fill out the quiz sheets. Make sure the tunes are pumping and that everyone has got a glass of bubbly in hand!
- After 10 or 15 minutes, you're ready to start. Ask each guest to swap their quiz with the person beside them for marking.
- Now comes the fun part! You can do this bit yourself, or have another guest (a confident friend or bridesmaid, for example) take the lead. Read out each question one by one, asking guests to shout out their answers.
- The winner gets the prize!
