Bridal Shower Games : Don't Say It

Notch each nametag with 10 tabs on the bottom. As each guest arrives, tell them the rules of the game : no one is to say the word "wedding" for the entire duration of the shower. If anyone hears another player say "wedding," they can tear a tab off the offending player's nametag. The player with the most tabs left at the end of the party wins a prize. At which point everybody shouts in unison, "1..2...3, wedding!!!".

A variation of this game is called, "Don't Touch It." Pass a small hair clip to each guest as they arrive. Instruct them to put it in their hair. The rules are no one is to touch their own hair. If anyone sees another player touch their hair, they can ask for the offending player's hair clip and place it in their own hair. The player with the most clips at the end of the shower wins a prize. Perhaps refraining from touching one's own hair is even harder than refraining from saying the word "wedding" at a bridal shower.
