Next on our list of insanely funny bridal shower games, is a truly hilarious gem. Wild Gab consists of a series of puzzles. Each puzzle is a set of unrelated words that sound like an actual word or phrase when sounded out. For example, the puzzle “Eye Bend Dream Enough Few” when spoken sounds like “I been dreamin’ of you”. The object of the game varies depending on how you choose to play, but generally, you divide the guests into two teams and work together to solve the puzzles. The first team to solve all of the available puzzles wins. For other fun ways to play:

  1. Set a time limit for each puzzle (e.g. 3 seconds) and the team with the most solved after all the puzzles wins.
  2. Set a time limit for the entire game (e.g. 30 seconds for 10 puzzles) and the team with the most solved after the time runs out wins.
  3. Have each team pick a different person to answer each puzzle. The teams can attempt to direct these individuals to the correct answer (For example: Tell them to “say it fast”, “sound it out slowly”, etc.), but they must not give them the answer or say words too closely related to the answer (i.e. If the answer is “a slice of wedding cake”, don’t say “it’s a piece of the main food found on the cake table”).
  4. Play like #2 only instead of having teams, you give the list of puzzles to each guest and the guest with the most solved after the time runs out wins.
