Don’t want to hear your wedding guests clinking their glasses together all night? Here are a few wedding kissing game alternatives to spice up your wedding reception:
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #1 – Invite guests to the microphone to offer one sentence of marriage advice. The newlyweds kiss once the nugget of wisdom is delivered.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #2 – A guest approaches the DJ indicating they’d like to guess a tune. The DJ gets everyone’s attention & plays a snippet of a song for the guest to guess. If s/he guesses correctly, the newlyweds kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #3 – Have each table of wedding guests write a short poem about the happy couple then come up to the microphone to read it. The newlyweds kiss for the best poem–plus get all the poems as a fun wedding keepsake.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #4 – Guests are invited to the microphone to tell a funny story about the bride or groom (or a joke). If they get a laugh, the newlyweds must kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #5 – If guests are willing to sing a tidbit of a song with the word “love” in the title on the microphone, the newlyweds must kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #6 – In order to get the newlyweds to kiss, guests must keep a hula hoop (conveniently staged on the dance floor) going for 10 seconds or more.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #7 – Known as the “5/10 Game,” here the MC has a guest participant name 5 items from a given category in 10 seconds or less…such as 5 state capitals, 5 brands of candy, 5 Tom Hanks movies, etc. If the guest can successfully name 5 items in the given category in 10 seconds, the newlyweds kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #8 – A guest acts out a scene from a well-known movie for the crowd. If the newlyweds can guess which movie is being portrayed, no kiss. If they can’t figure it out…they must kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #9 – Have each guest table create a David-Letterman-style list to be read aloud to the entire group. (List topics might be: Top 10 Reasons Why the Groom Should Stay in His Mother-In-Law’s Good Graces, Top 10 Reasons the Bride Said Yes to the Proposal, Top 10 Reasons the Newlyweds Should Have Kids, etc) The list the newlyweds find the most humorous earns a happy-couple-kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #10 – The couple creates a list of multiple-choice trivia questions about their relationship. A guest wishing for the newlyweds to kiss will approach the MC, who will publicly present the trivia question. A correct answer equals a kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #11 – In lieu of a Money Dance, have guests that want to see a kiss put a financial contribution in a jar on the Head Table. Each contribution earns a “kiss of thanks.”
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #12 – A guest wishing for the happy couple to kiss approaches the DJ who will play 30 seconds of a “surprise song” that the guest must dance to (such as Michael Jackson’s “Beat It,” PSY’s “Gangnam Style,” or the Bee Gees’ “Stayin’ Alive”). At the end of the mystery dance, the newlyweds kiss.
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #13 – Similar to #11, have a jar on the Head Table in which contributions go to your favorite charity. Specify that a $5 donation gets a “kiss on the cheek,” a $10 donation gets a “peck kiss,” and a $20 donation gets a “newlywed-worthy kiss.”
Wedding Kissing Game Alternative #14 – When a guest wishes for the newlyweds to kiss, he or she approaches the DJ who will play a short soundbite from a popular movie. If the guest can correctly guess which movie the soundbite is from, the couple must kiss.
