Bachelor Party or Wedding Shower Game Idea

Are you throwing a bachelor party or wedding shower for someone? If so, you're probably trying to think of fun and unique games for the guests to play.

A colleague of mine recently got married and I got together with some friends and we came up with a game to play at his bachelor party. We threw the party at work, so we kept it PG rated. Both the prospective bride and groom were in attendance, and commented afterward how everyone seemed to have a blast playing the game.

It is fun and simple to play, and everyone can get in on the action. We called the game "Music of Love" and here is how to play it.

Buy some inexpensive gifts and wrap each one individually. Pass each gift around to everyone so they get a chance to hold and feel the box or bag it is wrapped in. After everyone has taken a turn touching / shaking / feeling the item, the host will hold the gift up and give hints as to what is inside the box or bag. The hints are in the form of song titles and are given out one at a time. As each clue is given, people can guess what they think the item is. If someone guesses correctly they will win the "prize". If no one guesses correctly, then the prize/gift will go to the bride or groom.

Here are the gifts we bought and the song title hints used for each one:
