Tips for Delivery (Host vs. Self-Paced)

Having great questions is only half the battle! Delivering them the right way ensures maximum engagement. Here are two ways to do it:

🎤 The "Live Host" Method

Perfect for the rehearsal dinner or right before reception speeches. Have the Best Man or DJ act as the MC. You can project the game onto a screen while guests answer in real-time from their phones. It gets loud and extremely competitive.

🍸 The "Self-Paced" Method

Perfect for cocktail hour. Leave QR code table cards out on the cocktail tables. Guests can scan the QR and answer the questions at their own pace while mingling and drinking. The leaderboard updates silently in the background.


Frequently Asked Questions

How many trivia questions should you have at a wedding?

For a live hosted game during the reception or rehearsal dinner, we recommend 15 to 20 questions. This takes about 15-20 minutes, which is the perfect sweet spot before guests lose attention. For self-paced games at tables during cocktail hour, you can include up to 30 questions.

What are the best funny questions to ask about the bride?

The best funny bride trivia questions focus on harmless but embarrassing quirks. For example: "What is her worst driving habit?", "What is her go-to 2 AM drunk food?", or "How long does it realistically take her to get ready for a casual night out?"

Can we play wedding trivia without printing out paper?

Yes! The modern way to play wedding trivia is by using a platform like MyWeddingTrivia. Guests simply scan a QR code or enter a short code on their phones, and they can play the game live without needing to download any apps, pass around pens, or grade paper sheets.

What is the shoe game alternative?

Instead of the traditional shoe game where the couple sits back-to-back raising shoes, you can use "Who Did It First?" interactive trivia. Guests tap custom headshots of the Bride and Groom on their phones to vote on "He Said, She Said" style questions, getting the whole crowd involved in the fun.
