A full fledged water fight between both parties will greatly liven up the function. We can assure you, the game will bring out some much needed playful rivalry! Each member that is hit with water will be out, and team with most hitting points can win a prize. You can use pichkaris or even water balloons! Or, relive the childhood nostalgia with some water guns. This is a unique idea and will surely generate loads of fun!
Eat with your hands tied!
We have all grown up watching this game on TV – why not do it for a fun haldi? Use some sweets, say jalebis, and hang them on strings overhead. The participant’s hands will be tied, so they’d have to reach up and eat the sweet. It might seem easy, but it sure isn’t! The participant with the most number of sweets – successfully eaten, that is – wins!
The age-old Tug of War!
Nothing brings a good laugh than a sold tug of war game! Get members from either party and let the playful war begin! Of course, do ensure that everything is done safely! We love a good playful rivalry, and hope you will too!
Why not Kite flying?
Remember how kite flying tournaments were organized in our localities? You can do the same for your Haldi too! Get some large number of kites, line up members from each side, and you’re set! This is sure to bring in a lot of cheer to the function.
Beer pong for the classics.
To bring in even the lazy guests, organize a beer pong! All you have to do is aim a ping-pong ball perfectly and make sure it lands in any of the drink cups on the arrangement. Simple, Fun, and totally effective!
A fun – filled Mehendi!
Truth or Dare Icebreakers
This game is perfect for getting the function going and for the guests to interact. We all know what happens in this game – The participant has to choose between answering a truth, or complete a daring task. You can either spin a bottle, or pass the pillow to direct the game! As a fun twist, a shot can be made as punishment for failures.
Some traditional fun – fair games!
When a mehendi event is set up, most of the decor resembles a fair. Accentuate that feeling by organizing games like ring the bottle, large sized Jenga or a life size versions of snakes and ladders. You can also incorporate some fun and guaranteed – for – laughs races like a lemon and spoon or sack race! This wedding games works well for kids too.
Wrap the wedding saafa
We’ve seen this game in films as wedding games! Line up both male and female sitters as well as participants. The goal is to tie the saafa correctly in the quickest possible time! You can have multiple rounds for this game to declare a winner.
Family awards
This is truly an interesting game. Make some categories and also nominate some family members for them! This is going to be a memorable experience for everyone, and will also create some laughs and tears. Do feel free to try them out!
Beer chug!
This is a staple in all weddings, across many countries. You simply chug glasses, cans, bottles of beer and people cheer you on! This is definitely going to amp up the buzz for your mehendi event, we can tell.
Go beyond the performances for the Sangeet!
Impromptu Dance – off
Of course the performances are the main highlights, but an impromptu dance off isn’t going to be any harm! Get the DJ to play completely random songs and participants have to show their best moves! Conditions can be decided from either side that will be obeyed by the losing party.
Retro Karaoke
A traditional but fun game for the laid back guests who want to relax but still have fun. Playing songs from the old times will add to it and also enhance the experience. You’ll see how many people know the classic and the golden songs!
Raise the shoe
We’ve seen many couples playing this game on social media, and we know the drill. The groom and bride will raise a shoe depending on who does what for a question. This will only make their relationship more endearing to the guests, as they get an insight into it.
Never have I ever
We’ve seen it everywhere, played this all the time. But it can be a fun experience for the youngsters! It’s pretty simple: Players have to admit to committing any act or drink a shot otherwise!
Dumb Charades
A classic old game with guaranteed fun. You can be creative and change it to performing the hook step of a song, and participants guessing it. Other variations could be enacting a family member to make it more relatable and memorable!
Reception is the last, but not the least!
Bring on the spice
A variation of truth or dare, where some chaat or other snacks is prepared with lots of spice. Pro tip: do keep some water or sweets for help! You can variate this with golgappa competition or cake smashes too. The agenda is simple: subjecting a participant to their most extreme limits, along with a good laugh!
Describe the food
You might have seen a rather embarrassing version of this on The Ellen Show! But you can play this game by making it simpler! The one who guesses can be blindfolded, while the describer can talk about the taste, color, smell or the texture. No naming!
Guess who, but family
The game is really simple: childhood pictures of family members can be displayed and guests will have to guess who it is. Both young and old guests will be highly entertained for sure!
Paper dance
Couples will have to dance on sheets of paper and ensure that the paper does not slip away or tear while they dance to a song. Again, sounds easy but really isn’t! We surely recommend this one for all couples!
Couple crossword
Just like Hangman, the bride and groom will answer half-filled words to questions about their journey and relationships. For example, the half lettered answer to where the couple first met, or when was the first fight! This is surely a unique concept we’d love for you to try as one of a wedding games!
