The Shoe Game
If you’re looking for a fun and interactive way to entertain your guests at your wedding reception, consider incorporating the Shoe Game! This classic game is becoming increasingly popular at weddings and is a great way to involve your guests and create some laughter and memories. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at what the game is, and why you should consider adding it to your wedding reception. I’ve also included 50 questions to help with inspiration. You can use as many of them you like or come up with your own personalized questions.
What is the Shoe Game? It’s a fun and interactive game that involves the newlywed couple sitting back-to-back in chairs while holding one of each other’s shoes. The game involves the DJ or Emcee asking a series of questions about the couple, and the newlyweds answer by holding up the shoe of the person they think best fits the description. For example, if the question is “Who is more likely to forget an anniversary?”, the groom might hold up the bride’s shoe if he thinks she’s more forgetful, or vice versa.
When to Play the Wedding Shoe Game
Most couples choose to play the wedding shoe game during their wedding reception, since it’s a great way to fill a lull during the dinner service. It’s most commonly played right after speeches or just after the cake cutting, when all eyes are still on the couple of the hour. Just don’t wait too long: Once your guests are fully partying on the dance floor, it’s game over (removing them would cause a disruption in the energy your DJ has worked hard to cultivate and sustain over the course of the evening).
