1. A penny for your thoughts. This is a pretty cool game to play especially if the guests in your bridal shower are not that acquainted with each other like some of the guests may be friends from work while the other guests could be friends from your old school. To play this game, place a jar in the center of the room and give all of your guests a useful of pennies. Each guest will take turn in naming something they have not done yet and if someone has done that thing already, they are to stand up and put a penny in the jar. This game will allow your guests to realize things they have in common with each other.
2. Bingo! If you know how to play bingo, then you'll definitely enjoy playing bridal bingo.

3. What's next? This is another fun game to play during your bridal shower. You (or the host) read out the first few words of popular sentences or sayings and the person who gives the correct answer gets the most points. You can give a prize to the one with the most points at the end of the game, or a prize for the guest with the funniest answer.
4. Best wishes. Another great game to play during a bridal shower is the best wishes game.
