What is the Mr & Mrs Question Game?

The Mr and Mrs Question Game is a much-loved hen-party classic that guarantees laughter, a few blushes and brilliant photos. The bride-to-be answers questions about her partner, while pre-recorded (or written) answers from the groom are revealed to see how well they match. It’s a joyful way to celebrate the couple and bring everyone together.
What makes it so popular is its flexibility: you can keep it family-friendly for mixed-age groups, or add a cheeky twist for a girls-only night. It works in living rooms, hired venues and even over video calls. You can play purely for laughs or keep score and crown a winner — either way, it breaks the ice, sparks stories and sets a fun, celebratory tone.

How to Prepare the Game

Compile the questions

Mix sweet, romantic prompts with cheeky and funny ones. Tailor the list to the couple’s personality and the vibe of the group.

  • Aim for 20–30 questions for a lively game (30–45 minutes).

  • Include a balance of easy wins and a few curveballs to keep it exciting.

  • Group questions by theme (romance, daily life, travel, “most likely to…”) so you can adjust on the fly.

Interview the groom

Have the maid of honour or a close friend record his answers on video or in writing. This is the foundation of the game.

  • Keep the interview relaxed so answers feel natural and funny.

  • Ask for brief, clear replies to keep the pace snappy on the night.

  • Double-check names, dates or in-jokes the group will understand.

Set up the reveal

Decide whether you’ll play video clips or read answers aloud. If using video, ensure you have a speaker/projector ready.

  • Test sound and visuals beforehand.

  • If reading answers, prepare printed cards or a simple slideshow.

  • Nominate a host to keep time, introduce questions and manage the crowd.

Add simple props

A bell for matches and a buzzer for mismatches adds laughs. Consider tiny prizes for correct guesses or light forfeits for wrong ones.

  • Other ideas: paddles with the couple’s names, score sheets, mini confetti poppers for perfect rounds.

  • Keep forfeits light-hearted (e.g., a fun dare, a sip, or a dance move).

Create a comfy stage

Seat the bride somewhere cosy, with good visibility for the guests so everyone can join in the fun.

  • Arrange chairs back-to-back if you want the bride and groom present; otherwise keep the bride centre-stage.

  • Ensure good lighting for photos and a clear space for filming reactions.

  • Have water and tissues handy (for happy tears and giggles).

Make It More Interactive

Get the audience involved

Before revealing the groom’s answer, ask guests to guess. Turn it into a mini-competition with small prizes.

  • Use team guessing (bride’s family vs friends) for extra energy.

  • Give bonus points if the group predicts a perfect match.

Capture reactions

Film the bride’s responses — these candid moments are often the highlight.

  • Position one phone for close-ups and another for wide shots of the room.

  • Create a shared album after the party so everyone can enjoy the best moments.

Match your party theme

If you’ve got a theme (e.g., Hollywood Glam), style the questions and visuals to suit.

  • Rename rounds (e.g., “Red Carpet Romance”, “Director’s Cut”).

  • Use themed backdrops, fonts and props to tie everything together.

Use visuals

Show a slideshow of the couple’s photos that tie into each question for maximum “aww” and laughs.

  • Add short captions under each photo to prompt stories.

  • Keep slides clean and legible; avoid long text so the pace stays lively.
