You might be familiar and open with your relatives and cousins, but not everyone from both the sides, ladkiwalas and ladkawalas, will be. You will invite your friends from college, school, work, cousins, relatives, neighbours, and many of them will not be connected with each other and some of them might be meeting each other for the first time at the wedding event. And, it is impossible to make an introduction for everyone on the wedding day, and even if introduced, there’s always a discomfort in opening up with people.
Therefore, it is important to break the ice between Team Bride and the Team Groom. Here are some fun stress buster Indian wedding games for guests that can bring both the families together.
- Cricket
Organizing a cricket tournament a great idea for pre-wedding party games. Make it boys vs girls or the groom’s team vs the bride’s team. Make it full of fun by customizing it with personalized jerseys and caps. You can also make the little kids your little cheerleaders. In a country that’s crazy about this sport, you can’t go wrong! - Giant Jenga
If you have played the normal version of Jenga, you might know how much fun and suspense is related to this game. Guests might feel bored at the event when you and your partner are getting pictures clicked, therefore a giant Jenga is among the out of the box pre-wedding games to play to keep the guests amused while you are off for your photo session.
