Form Teams: Divide the guests into two teams. Depending on the size of your party, you can have more teams or adjust the number of players per team.
Explain the Rules: Each team will take turns. One player from the team will draw a movie title from the container and act out the title without speaking. They can use gestures, facial expressions, and body movements to convey the movie title.
Guessing: The player’s team has one minute to guess the movie title. If they guess correctly within the time limit, the team earns a point. If not, the other team gets a chance to guess for a bonus point.
Rotate: After each turn, switch teams and choose a new player to act out the next movie title. Continue taking turns until all the titles have been used or you run out of time.
Winning: If you’re keeping score, the team with the most points at the end of the game wins and you can hand out some small game prizes to the winners.

Extra Tips

Choose a Variety of Movies: Include a mix of well-known romantic comedies and some that might be a bit more challenging. This keeps the game exciting and tests everyone’s movie knowledge.
Use Props: If you want to add an extra layer of fun, provide some props like sunglasses, hats, or scarves that players can use while acting out the movie titles.
Keep the Energy High: Encourage everyone to cheer for their teammates and keep the atmosphere lively. A little friendly competition goes a long way in making the game more enjoyable!
Break the Ice: If your guests are a bit shy, start with easier, more recognizable movies to help everyone get into the spirit of the game.

Romantic comedy charades is a fun and easy way to bring guests together, create laughter, and celebrate love in a fun and interactive manner. Give it a try at your next bridal shower, and you’ll have everyone reminiscing about the great time they had for years to come!
