What's that Seasoning?

Decide on 10-15 seasonings for your guests to taste and smell. These can include fresh dried herbs and spices, liquid seasonings like Worcestershire sauce and other seasonings like bullion or dried soup/dip mixes.

Lead each lady into the kitchen or dining room blindfolded. Have plenty of small plastic spoons on hand for each sample, offer each one to her in a particular order, and write down what she says corresponding to each seasoning. Only allow a few seconds for each taste and a drink of water can be offered between each also.

Kitchen Tea Games

Name the Gadget

Shop online or at your local kitchen gadget store and select ten or more small items that are unusual. Place them on a tray and pass it around the room. Only allow ladies to start writing once the tray has been all the way around and then removed from site.

A prize is given to whoever gets the most correct, and then the gadgets are given to the bride as an additional gift.

Read the ingredients and let the ladies write down what they think it is a recipe for. The winner is the one who gets the most correct, and the recipe cards are then given to the bride.

Kitchen Tea Games

Divide the ladies into groups of 2 or 3. Ask them to write a short poem about the bridal couple in the space of about 5 minutes. Each group then reads their poem out loud and once all are read, they are voted on by the other groups. Usually just a showing of hands is used. No hand if you didn't like it, one hand if you thought it was good and two hands if you thought it was great. The group with the most votes wins a prize. Make sure to save all the poems to add to a scrap book for the bride and groom.

New Duties Charades

Cooking: chopping, sauteing, buttering toast, baking, mixing.

Divide the ladies into groups of 2 or more. The bride's team goes first and the play continues to the left of her. Each team is only given 30 seconds to act out the word, the first team to guess receives a point, and play continues, alternating turns for the teams. At the end of a set amount of rounds, the team with the most points wins.

Guess the Age of the Bride

Have a poster board with about 15-20 pictures of the bride, numbered 1-however many you choose. As each guest arrives, ask them to write down how old they think the bride is in each picture. Make sure to remind them to go in number order.

Purse Weigh-In

As each guest arrives for the kitchen tea party, ask them to weigh their purse, write down the weight, and hang on to the slip of paper.

After all the guests have arrived, compare weights and give prizes for the one who has the heaviest, the lightest, closest to the bride's.

Guess

Use a jar or attractive container and place a number of jelly beans or safety pins or some other suitable item in the jar. Make sure you know the answer but ask the guests to guess the number in the jar. Give a small prize to the winner.
