Dumb charade has been a summer vacation favorite for families for generations- so why abandon it on your wedding day?
You can make it competitive by adding timers, penalties, and making teams. It could be a bride vs groom family or an old-fashioned boy vs girl.
You can even keep individual scores by pre-deciding a list of movies and enclosing the names in chits. Maybe, later on, you can award whoever wins with a gift.
To add a bit of a wedding day touch, you can pick movies that were themed around weddings.
