🍻 Drinking Games for the Party Crew

Get the party started right with these tried-and-true drinking games, many with bachelor/bachelorette twists. Perfect whether you’re at a rental, hotel suite, or bar. Pair with Kings Cup or Flip Cup for variety.

1. Wedding Bells Beer Pong

Classic beer pong with wedding rules: arrange cups as a wedding cake (1-2-3-4 pyramid). Sink the top cup (bride/groom cup) = opponent chugs. Call “honeymoon shot” to shoot with your teammate’s arms linked. Bride/groom must drink double for any cup on their side.

Best for: 4+ players, competitive groups

2. “I Do” Flip Cup

Team flip cup where every round starts with someone saying “I DO!” Before flipping. Teams: Bride’s crew vs. Groom’s crew (or mixed). Losers of each round take a penalty shot. First team to win 5 rounds gets to assign “wedding vows” (embarrassing dares) to the other team.

Best for: 6+ players, high energy

3. Kings Cup: Wedding Edition

Add these wedding rules to Kings Cup: 2 = “Two to the Bride/Groom”, 5 = “Fiancé stories” (share a memory about the couple), 7 = “Heaven” but say a wedding-related word, Jack = “Never Have I Ever: Wedding Edition”, Queen = “Question Master” asks wedding questions, King = Add to the cup (final king drinks).

Best for: 4-10 players, mixed groups

4. Married Life Power Hour

Every minute, take a sip of your drink. But add wedding content: play clips of romantic comedies, wedding fails on YouTube, or the couple’s favorite songs. Every time “love,” “wedding,” or “forever” is said in a clip = everyone drinks. Bride/groom drinks whenever their name is mentioned.

Best for: Any size group, background game

5. Drunk Jenga: Bachelor/Bachelorette Edition

Write wedding-themed challenges on Jenga blocks: “Tell an embarrassing story about the bride/groom,” “Do your best impression of the future spouse,” “Demonstrate the couple’s first kiss,” “Everyone with a wedding ring drinks,” “Single people drink.” Tower falls = that person finishes their drink.

Best for: 4-8 players, creative groups

6. Ring of Fire (Wedding Remix)

Spread cards face-down around a center cup. Each card has a wedding rule: Ace = “Waterfall” (bride/groom starts), 3 = “Bride/Groom drinks”, 6 = “Chicks drink”, 8 = “Pick a wedding date” (whoever is closest drinks), 10 = “Categories: Wedding stuff”. Break the ring = chug the center cup.

Best for: 4-10 players, card game fans

7. Chandelier: Bridal Edition

Cups in a circle with one center cup. Bounce quarter to hit cups—owner drinks. Hit the center = everyone races to chug and flip their cup; last person drinks the center cup. Add a “bridal veil” (silly hat) that the loser wears until someone else loses.

Best for: 4-8 players, fast-paced

8. Horse Race (Bet on the Bride/Groom)

Four Aces lined up as “horses.” Deal remaining cards—each suit moves that Ace forward. Before starting, everyone bets drinks on which suit wins. Bride/groom picks last but must bet double. Losing bettors drink their bet; winners assign their bet to others.

Best for: 4+ players, gambling fans

👰 Bride-Focused Games (Bachelorette)

Games centered on the bride-to-be. Expect embarrassment, laughter, and lots of memories. These work great for bachelorette weekends, bridal showers, or girls’ nights.

9. Drink If the Bride Has Done It

Read statements about things the bride may or may not have done. If she HAS done it, everyone else drinks. If she HASN’T, she drinks. Examples: “Drink if the bride has… kissed someone on the first date / cried at a romcom / stalked her fiancé online before they met / practiced writing her married name.” The bride reveals the truth!

Best for: 5+ players, close friends

10. He Said, She Said

Before the party, get answers from the groom about the bride and their relationship. At the party, read questions and the bride guesses what he said. Wrong answer = bride drinks.

Best for: Any size, requires prep

11. Pin the Ring on the Finger

Best for: Any size, background game

13. The Newlywed Game (Practice Round)

Record the groom answering questions about their relationship. At the party, ask the bride the same questions—she tries to match his answers.

• Pace the drinks: Start with lower-stakes games, save the heavy drinking ones for when people are warmed up.
• Have backups: Not every game lands. Have 2-3 backup options ready.
