Wedding Trivia
Perfect for Bridal Showers

I love this wedding trivia. It's includes a fun variety of wedding related questions and is perfect for a bridal shower or as a wedding icebreaker.

At a wedding, have the MC ask random wedding trivia questions throughout the night. Give each winner a handful of kisses or some other small prize.

At a bridal shower, use it as a game all at once or spread it out over the evening. It's sure to test everyone's knowledge of weddings, while sparking some lively conversation along the way.
