Wedding competitions for newlyweds are small tests to prepare for their future life together. With their help, you can check your knowledge about each other, as well as make sure of your common plans for the future. Wedding competitions should be light, relaxed, fun and create a good mood for both participants and spectators. The “Distribution of Responsibilities” competition at a wedding meets all these criteria.
Essence and props
The main idea of this competition is to distribute responsibilities within a young family, so that it is fun and interesting for both the newlyweds and guests. There are several options for carrying it out. Depending on which option the presenter offers, the newlyweds either determine their responsibilities in the family themselves, or chance does it for them.
The competition will fit perfectly into the entertainment program for a small wedding.
To conduct this you may need one or another props. You will also have to prepare a text for the presenter and select music. Important! You should not completely rely on the tastes of the host or DJ in choosing wedding music, as their preferences may not coincide with yours.
Props for the competition “Distribution of family responsibilities”:
- balls with pieces of paper on which responsibilities are written, and needles;
- objects symbolizing some kind of duty (for example, a frying pan or a hammer), and a rope;
- cards with text, tray or jar;
- homemade chamomile;
- spinning top with an arrow, envelopes with questions.
Wedding competition: Get to know me, darling
Bride's Leg
Props:
- 1. Scarf for eyes.
- 2. Stockings.
The ladies, including the bride, sit on the chairs, 4-5 people. They show the groom that his wife is sitting among them. The groom is blindfolded. At this moment, all the women change seats, and among them (for color) 1-2 men sit down. At this time, the bride is replaced by another girl. Everyone bares one leg (just above the knees) and lets the groom in with a bandage. He is squatting, touching everyone's bare leg with his hands in turn, and must recognize his wife. Men can wear stockings to hide hairiness. There are many options.
Bride's hand
Several women come out, preferably of different ages, from girls to grandmothers. They remove all the jewelry from the hand. The groom must guess his betrothed while blindfolded.
Kiss the Bride
Recognize the bride by a kiss (the groom is seated on a chair, three girls are called, he is blindfolded; only the bride always kisses).

Scripts for young people

- Darling! I'm ready for you...
- My only one! For the sake of your smile, I agree...

- My dear! No matter what, I'm ready...

Association
This version of the competition involves the use of things and objects that symbolize one or another duty.
For example:
- frying pan - who cooks the food;
- iron - who irons things;
- children's book - who raises children;
- skewer - who cooks kebabs;
- garbage bag - who gets the privilege of throwing out garbage;
- a spool of thread - who will have to sew up socks;
- mop - who cleans the house;
- diaper - who changes children's diapers;
- plate - who washes the dishes;
- car keys - who controls the car;
- travel magazine – who plans and chooses places to travel;
- knitting needles - who knits socks.
Advice! To carry out it is necessary to select items in advance (in approximately equal quantities for the bride and groom) and hang them on a rope.
The newlyweds are blindfolded and brought into the hall with a rope with objects previously hung on it. The bride and groom cut off half of the items that hang on the rope. After this, their eyes are untied, and a cheerful distribution of responsibilities begins - everyone puts on their shoulders what the things from the pile are associated with.
Props:
- objects;
- rope;
- 2 scissors;
- 2 scarves for blindfolding.
I will
This version of the competition is the simplest. Its preparation requires a minimum of time and materials. All you need is:
- write on paper various actions and activities that most people do in everyday life;
- fold the pieces of paper so that what is written is not visible;
- place them on a tray or put them in a beautiful jar.
The bride and groom take turns taking out folded pieces of paper, unfolding them and reading what is written on them. Every time before reading the content they must say: “I will...”.
For example, “I will...”:
- ...cook soups;
- …repair the car;
- …taking out the trash;
- ...put the children to bed;
- ...laugh at your jokes;
- ...bring breakfast in bed;
- ...to treat you when you are sick;
- ...make you smile;
- ...give you a massage;
- ...kiss you in the morning.
Props:
- pieces of paper with responsibilities;
- tray or jar.
Who will do what?
It is necessary to prepare envelopes in advance with questions that can be of a different nature and belong to certain areas of knowledge. It is worth choosing questions from the school curriculum so that the competition does not tire the guests.
Envelopes are laid out in a circle on the table, and in the center is a spinning top with an arrow. The host names some duty and the newlyweds spin the spinning top. She then stops and points to the envelope with the question. The presenter reads out the question, and the responsibility that the presenter named goes to the one who was the first to answer the question.
For this option you need:
- spinning top with arrow;
- envelopes with questions.
Yours/mine/ours
The competition will show whether the young people discussed their future life and were able to agree on who will do certain household chores. The newlyweds independently determine what responsibilities:
- will be performed by everyone;
- what the spouse will do;
- and what they will do together.
Advice! A list of questions that the presenter will ask must be prepared in advance.
The host calls the newlyweds forward. He places two chairs with their backs facing each other and invites the young people to sit down and take off their shoes. After this, the groom must give the bride one of his shoes, and the bride must give the groom one of her shoes. The newlyweds sit with their backs to each other so as not to see their spouse’s answers (it will be more fun this way).
After exchanging shoes, the host asks questions beginning with the words “Who will be in your house”:
- ...cook pancakes;
- ...waking up at night when the child cries;
- ...buy sweets for home;
- ...make jokes wittier;
- ...laugh louder at your own jokes;
- …solve problems;
- ...wash socks;
- ...bargain on the market;
- ...ask parents for money;
- …tolerate your spouse’s antics;
- ...be the first to make peace?
And for each question, the bride and groom must:
- pick up their shoes - if they themselves do it;
- spouse's shoes - if he should do it;
- two at once if they think they will do it together.
Advice! Shoes can be replaced with other items, for example, a ladle (feminine attribute) and a hammer (male attribute).
For the “Yours/Mine/Ours” competition you need:
- list of questions for the presenter;
- shoes of young people or other male and female attributes.
Distribution of responsibilities in the family
Family responsibilities. Option 1.
The host brings pieces of paper with responsibilities written on them that may fall to the bride or groom. Each piece of paper is folded so that what is written is not visible to anyone, and placed on a tray.
The young people must take turns taking pieces of paper and reading out what fate is in store for them. Moreover, each duty is accompanied by the words: “I will...”, and what is written will become a continuation of the phrase.
