Ice Breaker Games at Engagement Party Ideas

Engagement party ice breakers

The best thing about engagement parties is that the bride and groom’s friends all get to meet! These engagement party games are a great way to have everyone get to know each other.

  1. Picture Match:  Ask the invited couples for pictures of the two of them, or print them from social media. Cut the photos in half, put the halves in envelopes, and hand them out as guests arrive. Leave it to guests to find their missing halves!
  2. Who’s Who?:  Create a list of facts about the guests- one for each guest. Then, create a sheet for guests to take around and match the fact to the right attendee.
  3. Let’s Mingle!:  Similar to Who’s Who?, Let’s Mingle! has guests find another party attendee that fits the simple description, such as “shares your birthday month.” Here is a printable version you can purchase, or you can create your own.
  4. Memory Cards:  Have stacks of index cards at the entrance for guests to pick up and have them write their favorite (or funniest) memory with the couple. Have the couple read the cards aloud to all guests for added fun! 
  5. Find The Guest Bingo:  In this game, guests find another attendee that matches the description. 5 in a row wins!
  6. Battle of the Sexes:  This classic game will have everyone split into two groups, meaning everyone gets to participate and interact with one another! 
  7. Wedding Advice:  Just like with the Memory Cards activity, have guests write their best wedding advice for the happy couple on an index card to be read aloud at some point in the evening.

  1. Ring Hunt:  Hide rings around the event space for guests to find, like an Easter Egg hunt! You can use rings like these found on Amazon, and even hide them in plastic eggs to make them easier to spot.
  2. Cornhole:  Almost every engagement party I’ve attended has had cornhole! Cornhole is fun for all ages and great for a competitive crowd.
