List of Things You Need To Play Would She Rather:
- Game cards for “What Would She Rather” bridal game (we have a free printable/PDF that you can download below).

How to Play Would She Rather?
- Before the bridal shower starts, give the bride one of the game cards and have her mark her favorite answer out of the two choices given. This is your answer key.
- Pass out a game card and something to write with to every player. Have each guest write their name on their card.
- Start the timer (3-5 minutes)
- Each guest will go through the questions and pick the answer that best fits the bride-to-be. (For a fun addition, ask the groom to pick his answers before the shower. Let’s see how well he knows his future wife)
- The bridal shower host will read off the correct answers
- Score 1 point for each correct answer
- The player with the most point is the winner!
- In case of a tie, you can choose to give all parties who tied a prize OR to make it more fun, have a bonus question with the answer ready. Read the bonus question and the two choices, whichever guest yells out the correct answer first, wins.
