Would she rather: the bride edition
Would she rather give up coffee or dessert? Guests guess which the bride would pick, then she reveals her answer. It's quick to play, easy for guests who just met her, and the answers start conversations.
Play it live
Questions on the TV, guests answer from their phones, the reveal and the scores are automatic. Free for up to 15 guests. The live game starts with the first 12; swap in any of the others in the editor.

How to play
- 1Have the guest of honor answer every question ahead of time, in secret.
- 2Show one question at a time on the big screen, or read it aloud.
- 3Guests pick or write their answer.
- 4Reveal the real answer. Every correct guess scores a point.
- 5The guest who knows them best wins.
Running it for your group
- A small group
- Under a dozen guests: read each question aloud and let guests call out answers, or pass round the printed sheet and mark it together at the end.
- A big room
- Thirty guests or more: don't read answers aloud one by one. Put the questions on a screen and let guests answer on their phones, or have neighbors swap sheets and mark each other's.
- Guests on a video call
- On a video call: share the big screen and let everyone answer from their own phone, so the reveal happens for the room and the call at the same moment.

- Does it work at a bachelorette?
- Yes. It's short, clean and needs no props, so it fits before dinner or on the drive.
