Bridal Jeopardy
Bridal Jeopardy
If you are planning a bachelorette or bridal shower you need to make this game, it is so much fun! You will play it just like the game show bringing all your closest people together to laugh and see who knows you best!
For those who do not know... BRIDAL JEOPARDY is the same at the tv game show just personalized to your event, bride etc. The board is broken into 5-6 categories (or however many you desire / can fit) and each category has about 5 questions ranked from easiest to hardest (100-500 point system). Players pick the category and number of the question they choose to answer, once all the questions are completed, whichever team has the most points wins!
It was pretty simple to make, did learn a lesson - so i'll share with you the steps and how it works!

STEP 1: Gather the supplies
I got the poster board from the dollar store. Here is one from Amazon https://amzn.to/3AyjarR
Envelopes: https://amzn.to/3SSnoAY
Glue Gun: https://amzn.to/3T0xI9V (don't try double sided tape, it did NOT work)
Sharpies: https://amzn.to/4dw2tM3
Index Cards: https://amzn.to/3yOISaV
STEP 2: Lay Out Your Board + Decide On The Categories
Before you attach the envelopes, lay it out all to make sure it fits and looks exactly how you want. From there I recommend using a hot glue gun to attach the envelopes to the board for it to stick best. Then write numbers 100-500 on each column and label the criteria's you chose above.
Criteria Ideas:
The Bride
The Groom
The Couple
Wedding Facts
Misc Wedding Questions
Famous Couples
Couples Pets
Wedding / Romantic Movies
The Couples Future
Love Songs
The In-Laws
Wedding Traditions
Add your title and make it look cute :)
STEP 3: Decide and Write Your Questions
This was fun to brainstorm. I wrote a whole list and then narrowed it down to final options and the order to put it in. I also added 5 bonus questions to end the game.
Each question in the category will have a point amount of 100 to 500 depending on the difficulty.
** Tip: for questions you may forget the answers to: Either read off an answer sheet, or put the answer at the bottom of the index card and cover it! (see below)

HOW TO PLAY!
Once you have your board together and are ready to play, break your group into teams. You can play it 2 ways
Have the team members rotate with each question and have them buzz in each round to see who answers first and if they answer correctly they get the points. If not, the other team has a chance to answer to steal the points.
Have each team write down their answer and after the time is up share. Whoever got the right answer gets the points.
At the end, add up all the points to see the winner!
