Competitions for couples
Frog
Several couples need to be involved in this competition. One of the guys sits on a chair and picks up a frog pump with a ball connected to it. The girl’s goal is to first inflate and then burst the accessory as quickly as possible with jumping movements, for which she is positioned on the guy’s lap. Another version of this game is also interesting: a ready-made balloon, not inflated too tightly, lies on the man’s lap, and the lady sits on top of it, trying to quickly burst the product.
Flour on a ball
Couples sit at a table where there is a balloon. The presenter invites the participants in this competition to blow on an object towards the seated opponent. The main task is to move the beautiful ball to the enemy’s side. Next, the presenter complicates this event by blindfolding the participants. The funniest action begins.
The chosen toastmaster secretly, in front of the amazed spectators, sprinkles flour on the product! The players, suspecting nothing, try their best to repeat the action stipulated by the conditions, which results in covering the contestants with flour while the guests laugh. After the bandages are removed, everyone will become even funnier.
Model and designer
To hold this competition you will need a girl and a guy. The lady will act as a model, and a representative of the opposite sex will act as a designer. Within a certain time, the man must attach the maximum number of props to the lady in any way possible in different places. The prize will go to the one who is the most diligent and fastest.
Dancing
Several couples participate in a dance competition. A balloon is attached to the leg of the contestant (guy). The goal of the pairs is to do everything necessary to make the opponent’s weapon burst, while keeping their product safe. All actions are performed to a slow melody. The last couple to save their props receives a prize and applause.

Peculiarities
Balloons are integral companions of all joyful events. They are a symbol of fun, lightness and a joyful future. It is in order to emphasize the beginning of something better and brighter that balloons are bought and inflated.
However, balloons can not only decorate rooms or give them during congratulations. There are many interesting wedding activities and games with balloons, and thanks to their brightness and wonderful associations, balloons help to bring joyful emotions to everyone present .
The advantage of competitions with balloons at a wedding is that they do not require many additional props.
Competitions with balloons in pairs
Both newlyweds and witnesses can safely participate in couples competitions. The host can form pairs of guests from the bride and groom, giving them the opportunity to get to know each other better.
Gladiators

Girls must prepare their men for the fight. To do this, you need to make armor from tape and balloons. The men then compete to burst their opponent's balloons and keep their own.
Dancing

Participants must dance holding the ball between them and make sure that it does not burst or fall. The success of a dance competition for guests largely depends on correctly selected musical compositions.
Flower glade
- Participants: guests in pairs.
- Props: balloons.
In this wedding competition, men need to collect as many flowers as possible for their beloved ones, in the form of balloons that are scattered on the floor. And girls need to hold the entire “bouquet” in their hands. Svadbaholik.ru advises tying balloons without threads to complicate the task.
Air courier
For this competition, balloons with helium and a small light weight attached are used, this is a package. The task of the invited participants is to deliver the package to the address, for example, to some part of the hall or to the bride and groom’s table without touching the balloon or weight. In this situation, all that remains is to blow on the ball, as well as wave your hands or parts of clothing at it, directing it, which is very difficult. You can unite 2-3 people into one team, it looks even more fun. It’s great if the prize is one of the balloons with a package attached, and it contains a pleasant surprise.
Whatever competitions you choose for your wedding, the main thing is that they fit into the overall style of the celebration, are easy to perform and fun, but without falling into banality and vulgarity, then your wedding will be remembered by everyone and many will be happy to “steal” these for themselves ideas.
Competition for the best figure made from modeling balls
Modeling balls are oblong, sausage-like balls of various shades, from which you can create various figures by twisting them. The competition for the best figure from modeling balls involves participants creating the best figure. Everyone can do one figure at speed or each can do their own, trying to make it as funny and interesting as possible. This competition allows you to attract a large number of participants and even involve the entire audience. It’s good if the invited magician first demonstrates the creation of at least the simplest figures, and then asks those present to assemble one of the shown figures.
I give!
Another active and noisy fun. We will give each other “gifts”. We divide the children present at the holiday into two teams, and use some kind of ribbon or jump rope to divide the room in half, simply placing it on the floor.
Balloons are used as gifts. We place the same number of balls in front of each team. The players’ task is to give their balls to the opposing team, and in fact, to transfer all the “gifts” from their side to the enemy’s side. At the same time, shouting the word “I give!”
“Gifts” that arrive from rivals must also be quickly sent back. When “this funny mess” ends (and this moment is determined by the presenter), you need to count how many balls are on each side. The team with the fewest “gifts” wins.
My friend
For this competition, you need to prepare balls that are not very large, about the size of a human head. And also take out all kinds of hats, caps, panama hats, and scarves from the closets.
Each participant is given a ball and a felt-tip pen. Let's make ourselves air friends.
You need to draw a face on the ball and put some kind of hat on it. When the “friends” are ready, invite the children to introduce them and tell them about their friend’s name, how old he is, what his hobbies are and where they met.
By the way, with such aerial friends you get great photos.
Several ways to use clothespins:
• “New Year tree No. 1”
Two participants: a boy and a girl. To begin, both participants are blindfolded and five clothespins are attached to each. At the leader’s command, the boy and girl begin to look for clothespins on each other. Usually among the guests there are volunteers who are ready to show the best results in the same time. In this case, you can turn the competition into a joke and attach four clothespins to them.
• “New Year tree No. 2”
The competition is intended for two or more opposite-sex couples. One person from the couple will be the Christmas tree, and the second will decorate it. The last person's hands are tied behind his back and given a basin with clothespins. On command, you need to start decorating the Christmas tree as beautifully as possible and hang more clothespins than your opponent. You need to use your mouth.
• "Daredevils"
Two people are asked to attach as many clothespins to their faces as possible. Whoever has more wins.
Air lambada
You can also dance with balloons. Before you start, learn the basic lambada movement with your children and practice. Then invite the children to line up like a snake, placing their hands on the shoulders of the person in front. Turn on the music and start moving around the house, while dancing the lambada.
Now introduce balls into this dance action. Place them between the players. One presses the ball with his back, and the one who follows him with his stomach, etc. The task is to walk like a snake, dance the lambada and at the same time try to hold the balls. There will be no winners here, but there will be more than enough fun and laughter)
