Ideas for games

kimmykupcakes · May 2011

I'm looking for some ideas for some games that can be played in our backyard for our at home reception. Something that doesn't take up a ton of room. I just want it there as an option.

We did one where DH and I stood back to back and each held 2 signs - one representing him and one representing me. We had someone ask us questions, like "who is the faster driver" and we'd both answer independently -- people seemed quite entertained at that.

Some other thoughts...
- Guess the # of Hershey's kisses in the jar
- Guest scavenger hunt (meet someone who has kayaked in Hawaii)
- Spin the Bottle (LOL, just kidding)
- Madlibs?

Corn Hole/Corn Toss

Sounds strange but its really fun, a friend from Ohio introiduced me to this game. Here's a link http://www.cornholehowto.com/

We play it in the summer at partes on the grass.

I was just thinking about playing cornhole and also ladder golf. I've been looking up games after I posted this. Also planning on doing a trivia game about the two of us at the welcome BBQ on Maui.

I was also going to recommend cornhole. My friends do it at every party they have and there's no need for anything else, it gets pretty intense

Cornhole it is! We can put our wedding logo on the board.

I'm a big fan of horseshoes or croquet...

Speaking of awesomely classy, I still have my beer pong tables that I created. They are super legit and amazing. One even has my sorority's greek letters on it haha! It was a lot of work and precision, but you could make a table that has Hawaii stuff on it! I can send you a picture of what mine looks like if you're interested in this.

I love cornhole!!!

I LOVE the guest scavenger hunt - it's probably a great way to get the excitement up and give people something to talk about. We'll probably have to offer some fabulous prizes...gotta think about this!!!! I am excited! I think we'll have the tables compete for this and give giftcards or something great as prizes.

Another option is guest bingo (similar to scavenger hunt) but with a twist!!

You should fb me a picture and I'll have my FI make us one for our AHR! I think he'd love to make one, our friend made a really nice one and put a big guiness decal across it.

kimmykupcakes · May 2011

I talked with FI last night. We are going to do cornhole and make our own board with our wedding logo on it and ladder golf. There will be children there so we need to do something that is safe for having them around. Also doing the trivia game for the welcome BBQ on Maui.
