Traditionally games are played at the wedding shower, but when new trends become popular they can easily become a new tradition. One of those new trends is a game called the Mr. and Mrs. game (also
known as the Shoe Game) and it is played by the bride and groom
while guests watch. It's kind of like the Newlywed Game, but it's just
the bride and groom playing against each other to show how well they
know each other--while everyone else watches.
How to play the shoe game
To play the shoe game game, the bride and groom take of their shoes. The groom holds one of the bride's shoes in one hand and one of his shoes in the other. The bride does the same. They are seated back to back so they can's see each other and the MC or DJ starts asking questions like: Who's most likely to drop their phone in the toilet? The bride and groom answer by raising the shoe of who they think it would be. |

It's fun and gets everyone laughing and even people near the back of the room can "see" the couple's responses.
Shoe game questions
Here is a list of sample Shoe Game questions. Feel free to make up your own questions or place note cards at each table for guests to submit possible questions. (The game usually consists of 20 to 30 questions and takes about 10 minutes to play):Who's most likely to drop their phone in the toilet?
Who has the better sense of humor?
Who spends the most money?
Who takes more time in the bathroom?
Who has to have the last word?
Who hogs the blankets?
Who is the smarter dresser?
Who spends more time on Facebook?
Who is the better dancer?
Who is the bigger baby when they have a cold?
Who's the better kisser?
Other things to consider
The people making up the questions to ask need to keep the audience in mind. Will children be in attendance? If so, you'll want the questions to be appropriate.
