Bridal shower games

He Said, She Said

Updated October 2026

He Said, She Said is the bridal shower game where the couple answers the same questions on their own, picking either themselves or each other, and the guests guess the answer.

The questions are about everyday habits, not secrets, so the whole room can play, from the bride’s grandmother to the coworkers who’ve never met the groom.

This page has how to run it, 73 questions, and a free generator that puts the couple’s names on a sheet for every guest.

Before the shower

How to play

  1. Ask the couple first. A week or so before, each of them answers every question on their own, without comparing notes. For each one they pick “me” or “them.”
  2. Print a sheet for every guest. Guests circle who they think the couple picked.
  3. Read the answers out. Read a question, then what each of them said.
  4. A point for every match. If the couple gave different answers, everyone gets the point.
  5. Stop at 20 or 25. There are presents to open.

Make your list

Tell us their names, how far the questions can go and how many you want, and we’ll pull a list from all 73. Swap out any you don’t like, then print a sheet for every guest or put it on the TV.

Want the whole room playing from their phones?

Group Project makes a game show for bachelorettes that plays on the TV while everyone answers on their phones. We’re working on a shower version, and we’d love to hear what would work at yours.

Questions

Fine, ask us anything.

How does He Said, She Said work?

The couple answers the same questions separately before the shower, picking themselves or each other. At the shower, guests guess the answer to each one, and get a point for every match.

How many questions should we ask?

Twenty to 25. That’s about 20 minutes, which fits around opening presents.

Does it work for any couple?

Yes. Put their names into the generator and the sheets and slides use the names instead of “He” and “She.” Some people call it Who Said It.

Do they really have to answer separately?

Yes. The game runs on the questions where they disagree, and it only works if neither one has seen the other’s answers.

What’s the difference between this and What Did the Groom Say?

In What Did the Groom Say, only the groom answers, about the bride, and she guesses. Here, both of them answer, and the guests guess. Our What Did the Groom Say page has 116 questions for that one.

Can guests play on their phones instead of paper?

Paper works fine for this one. If you want a game the whole room plays from their phones, built from what everyone says about the bride, that’s Group Project.

Do you make a game for the bachelorette, too?

Yes, that’s our main game. Group Project is a game show for the bachelorette that plays on the TV while everyone answers on their phones. Before the party, guests answer a few questions about the bride, and the game turns their answers into five games.
