Bridal Bingo

Make up different bingo cards (enough for everyone at the shower) with boxes like: china - everyday dishes - crystal - lingerie - bath linens - bedroom linens - small appliances - flatware - everyday glasses - pots and pans - miscellaneous (for those strange items) - etc.

Check her Bridal Registry to see if there are any unusual or specific items.

Once someone gets Bingo they get a prize. Keep playing and awarding prizes until the bride is done.

If it is a large shower you could play a cover all for a grand prize. You may want to appoint a bridesmaid to call the category.

I guarantee everyone will be greatly anticipating each gift.
