Let your wedding be a time to test the compatibility of the other couples around you. Ask your brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts to hold their spouse’s hand and come to the stage.

This is a well-known game involving couples. In this game, spread a sheet of paper on the floor, and each couple has to dance on this sheet. Trick is that they should not step out of that sheet. As the music changes, fold a part of the paper that they are dancing on. As the size of the paper decreases, you will see more and more couples tumbling towards elimination. We are sure some of your single friends would not mind teaming up as well for this one.

Whoever knows his sweetheart the best will surely win an exciting prize (others will be spending a night on the couch, we think!).
