Printable Bridal Shower Bingo Cards, Free

Q: Can I change the gifts on the list?

Yes. Under Words add the items from the couple's registry, and delete anything outside their taste. Short names fit the squares best.

A guessing game built on the gift table

At a bridal shower the gifts tend toward the home: kitchen tools, linens, serving pieces, something for the couple's first living room. The card list follows that pile, so most squares have a real chance of turning up. Each square holds one item, from a casserole dish to a table lamp, and the card is crossed off as presents come out of their paper.

Because the cards are made fresh for you, every guest has a different set of squares, which matters at a shower with a big guest list of aunts, cousins and coworkers. A host with 25 guests prints 25. If the party is smaller, keep a few extras so a late arrival has a card in hand.

A gift that is not on the list simply does not count, and three casserole dishes still mark only one square. Prizes are optional. For an afternoon tea or an after-dinner shower, hand the cards out with the dessert plates.

Ask one guest to write each gift and its giver on the back of a spare card. The bride gets a ready list for her thank-you notes.

Questions about bridal shower bingo

Can I change the gifts on the list?

Yes. Under Words add the items from the couple's registry, and delete anything outside their taste. Short names fit the squares best.

Is it fine for a virtual shower?

Yes. Save the cards as a PDF, email them to guests, and have each person mark squares on screen or print at home while the bride opens gifts on video.

How long does the game take?

It lasts as long as gift opening, usually 30 to 45 minutes for 15 to 20 gifts. A full-card win needs more gifts than most showers have.

What prizes work?

Small and useful: a scented candle, a jar of honey, a box of tea. Many hosts skip a prize and cheer the winner.
