Always a bridesmaid....part 3

Free shower games involving centerpieces!

Often centerpieces are a small pot of flowers, or a vase with a flower (or more), or a large candle. There are many more possibilities. I've mostly gone with flowers either potted or in a vase. Typically I do not wish to take these home with me. They can make excellent prizes! 

 A fast way to get rid of them is to give them to the girl at the table with the birthday closest to the wedding date.

Another option is Pass the Centerpiece. It involves a poem which I've used many variations of. I recommend passing a pen not the actual centerpiece.Have one guest at each table pick up the pen to start. Designate one of the girls to read the poem slowly so that the guests can follow the instructions.

1. The news is out, quick send a cable, the centerpiece goes to the lady across the table.

2. If someone wears a dress of blue, she must take this gift from you. If blue cannot be seen, it goes to the one wearing green.

3. I will now read another verse...please pass it to the gal with the largest purse.

4. We are getting tricky, here is a real humdinger! Pass it to the one with the most rings on her fingers.

5. Wow! What a success! Pass it to the guest with the most buttons on her dress.

6. Alas, this gift is not for you. It now goes to the one with the largest shoe.

7. Let's get this party started girls..pass it to the one with the cutest curls.

8. The bride is anxious. The groom is nervous. Now pass this to the lady who drove the furthest.

9.  It's not yet time to rehearse. Pass it to the gal with the most money in her purse!

10. We hope you all are having fun. We have tried to include most everyone. From the largest purse to the largest shoe, pass this gift to the right of you.

11. We're ending this rhyme, this is the last poem, the centerpiece you are holding is yours to take home!

I hope you enjoy these games. I will be posting more shower tips and free games another day!
