I am new to PC, my super starter month is April. But I have a Pampered Bride show booked for May and wanted to know if anyone had any neat activities or games to play. This seems like a really fun group of people. I would like to plan ahead for this so I had time to get the supplies I need. Also if anyone has any tips, that would be appreciated too!! Thanks!

Fun GameHey! My super starter month is this month and I had a bridal show earlier and the game I played was :

Have your guests (on the back of the drawing slip) # from 1-14

Have the bride take a basket or something around with 14 small PC items in it have the guests look in the basket for 5 sec. When each guests has had the opportunity to take a peek and the bride leave the room with the basket.

Then begin with the questions:

1. What color is the bride's shirt?
2. Does her shirt have a collar?
3. Does she have on pants, a skirts or shorts?
4. Is she wearing a watch?
5. If so, which wrist is it on?
6. Is the bride wearing a necklace?
7. How many rings is she wearing?
8. Does the bride have anything in her hair?
9. Is the bride wearing socks, hose, or nothing?
10. What color are the bride's shoes?
11. Does the bride have on earrings?
12. If so are they silver or gold?
13. Is she wearing a belt?
14. Are the bride's nails polished?

Be sure to do this before you put her apron on.

Good Luck!

The Pampered Bride to be is Pregnant!:) That is a great idea - thanks! I actually got a call from her this evening with some more news....she just found out she is pregnant! SOOOO does anyone have any ideas on how to incorporate the "bun in the oven"?? I know I am supposed to make the bridal shower all about her - but with her latest news of being pregnant, I know some of her guests will be focused on that as well. What should I do?? Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks!!

Erica :confused:
 
I would ask her what SHE wants to do. She might not want to focus on the baby or even let everyone know she is pregnant yet.
 
Girl, you've COMPLETELY stumped me on this one!!! :rolleyes: I dunno what to tell you!! By the way....what's your location??

HAHA!! Tell me about it!! I've decided that I am going to just do what I had planned on doing originally for the party and make it all about the bride. And to go with the flow of the party when it comes to the baby. No need to change things around and stress myself out! I am located in the Lawton/Fort Sill area of Oklahoma...my husband is in the military. Thanks for everyone's help! :)

SO what does she do with the basket of 14 PC items? And what PC items are you talking about?
 
haha!Well the guests "think" that they are supposed to be taking note to the 14 items in the basket (ie citrus peeler, classic scraper, mini whipper....) but really the questions refer to the bride's attire.
 
Bridal Shower Show IdeaI got a real neat idea for Bridal Shower Shows. Make a simple Vail for the bride to be to wear. I made one for under $2.00! I got 1 yard of the white netting material, a small comb, silk flowers. I arranged and glued the netting, the flowers and some greenery to the top of the vail. Give it to the bride to wear during the show. She will feel like a Queen!
:)
 
okay...andWhat is the prize if they answer the most questions correctly about the bride? :confused:

Anything you want. You could give a mini serving spatula, or Small Bamboo Spoons or something you have in inventory. I like to give it right away, but you could have the winner put it on their order form. Also have a plan in case of a tie.
 
game idea works at any type show

I used this idea at a regular show yesterday and they loved it! Can't do it twice with the same group though. ;)
 
Cute gameBeth - glad it worked well....but I wanted to tell you gals about another game that was played at a bridal shower I did the other night. It's called (bride's name) Honeymoon Suitcase. What the host does (or you) is place 10-15 items in a suitcase and have the guests # from 1-15 (or how many items you place in the suitcase) and they guess what is in the suitcase. It was SO fun!! We put the following items in the suitcase: sunscreen, lingere, beach towel, tylenol, swim suit, phone card, a teddy bear, handcuffs, minnie mouse ears, directions, tooth brush/toothpaste, and a camera. VERY CUTE!! We knew the bride really well so thats why we put the handcuffs in there....the groom is in the academy for the state police. hee hee! They are going to Florida so thats why we put all the beach stuff and minnie mouse ears. Anyway...have any questions just ask.
 
Sounds fun!

You girls are awesome!Thank you so much for being willing to share all your ideas! I just started in February, and this site...that I found "accidentally" has been the biggest help! I was nervous about my first bridal show, but not I feel confident, thanks to all your ideas!!

Your all awesome! :)

Great idea LauraI love the suitcase idea!! Do you think it would work for a bridal shower in another state? The host is here, but the shower is in Montana. If she were to work with her friends there and have them organize the game....

I wish I could go there and help with the shower!! :o)

suitcase gameSure they could play it in Montana - where are you located, btw? Just simply tell them how to play. It's VERY fun and comical!
