Kissing Game Ideas!

Here are some alternatives to the traditional clanging of glasses for the bride and groom to kiss. Remember these are just ideas.

1. Classic Bells: Small bells can be purchased in bulk or larger bells can be used. Traditionally, these are placed on the tables and through the reception the guests ring the bells. To spice it up, the more bells that ring at the same time the bigger the kiss is. If someone can get everyone to ring all the bells at once watch out! You may want to make up little instruction cards that say, "Ring the bell for a kiss."

2.Truth or Kiss: Divide the guests into groups and have one of the bridal party instruct them to ask the bride and groom a question. The bride and groom can choose to answer or they can kiss.

3. Q and A: Make up questions about the bride and groom, some easy some hard, and place them into a box or basket. Also, give each table a bell or noisemaker. Have someone from the wedding party pull out a random question and the first table to ring in has to answer it correctly in order to get the bride and groom to kiss.

4. Basket Kiss: As the guests arrive, they enter their names into a container. As the reception progresses, a name is called out every 5 to 10 min. The guest comes forward and tries to toss an object into a basket, hoop, or other container placed on the floor. You can also have the bride and groom hold the container and try to avoid or catch the object being tossed. If you don't know what to have the guests toss into the basket, ask them to use change from their purse!

5. Copy Kiss: This is a simple idea that can get pretty interesting. The person or couple that wants to make the bride and groom kiss has to kiss someone first! Then the bride and groom have to try to copy their kiss.

6. Kissing Advice: For this idea, the guests have to come up with marriage advice. They stand up and tell the bride and groom what their advice is and the bride and groom kiss.

7. Sing for a Kiss: Tables have to come up with a song that includes a specific word. These words can be placed on the table. You can use words like: love, wedding, vows or you can use words that describe the bride and groom. The guests at that table have to stand up and sing the song to get the bride and groom to kiss.


Dinner Activity Ideas

Here are some other ideas to personalize your wedding and keep the flow of your recieption going.

1) Centerpiece Giveaway: If you want to give away your centerpiecies instead of just asking your guests to take them home, we can use this fun option to both keep the flow of your event going and have some fun. Our simple and fun game is best discribed as hot potato with couple twist and always ends up with a bunch of laughts and good times.

2) Who Wears The Pants Trivia: You and your finacee sit back to back and are asked to take off your shoes.You will give each other one of your shoes and keeps one for yourself. You both thne will be asked questions like: Who controls the checkbook? Who does the laundry? Who does the cooking? etc. You and your fiancee respond back by holding up the appropriate shoe for either the Bride or the Groom. You and your guests will have a good laught at some of the answers.

3) Pearls of Wisdom: During our setup we will put out note cards and pen on the guest tables and before the weddding party introduction JD will instructor your guests that these cards are for offering advice to the you, the new couple. Usually during the main course of the meal we will go around collect what the guests have written down. Then the MC will read the cards with advice one by one for the new couple, there are always some touching moments and some funny ones.

4) Name the Future Baby: This is similar to the pearls of wisdom except instead of your guests giving advice to you and your financee, they will have the fun of helping you name a future baby. This always leads to a play on your names and some intresting combinations. One note about this game is that we make it very clear that this fun activity to name some possible future baby down the road.

5) Wedding Party Dance Contest: This is a fun alternative to the traditional slowwedding party dance that can be awkward at time. You, your fiancee and guests will server as judges of dance contest where the only goal is to get most dances correct accroding the judges. This contest covers everything from the twist to thriller to the cupid shuffle, plus at the end the winning pair get great prizes.

6) Wedding Party Cake Building Relay: This quick and simple game is relay race between the Bride's team and the Groom's team. The object is to bulid a wedding cake using 20 white cups and a cake topper and the first team to win gets to have the other team get them drinks all night long.

7) Key Gag: This should be preplanned with us before the event. Obtain several house keys (10-20 keys is sufficient) during the party before the garter/bouquet toss, usually during someone's toast, someone from the wedding party is responsible for handing out the keys to several guests. Just before the groom removes the garter the MC will announce "Now that the Bride/Groom (your choice) is married, everyone must return their key to his/her apartment/house". At this time several people walk forward and place the keys in a bucket. This can also be done during toasts and is always fun for a laugh.
