I recently coordinated my first wedding of the 2010 season (see photos by photographer Nancy Rothstein here) and the wedding party put together a fun newlywed game involving the couple’s shoes. The bridesmaids set out two chairs back-to-back and seated the bride and groom facing away from each other. In each hand, the bride and groom had the other’s shoe and their own. For each question, such as “Who is the better cook?” or “Who spends more money?” the bride and groom raised the shoe (representing themselves or their better half) that best answered the question. The game elicited lots of chuckles and I thought it was a great way to lighten the mood.

What are variations of the newlywed game that you fancy?
