Looking for a bridal shower game that gets everyone laughing, singing, and just a little competitive? Name That Love Song is an easy crowd-pleaser that works for almost any type of shower.
It’s similar to Name That Tune, but with romantic songs guests actually recognize. Even better — you don’t have to build anything yourself. This game includes a ready-to-play playlist and a free printable game card, so all you have to do is press play.
