She Said Yes! DIY Printable Bridal Shower Games

We're celebrating a special event in honor of two blogging soon to be brides, Larisha from We're Parents and Alex from Mommys Craft Obsession! Each day we will be debuting a special new giveaway or post so make sure you check back frequently! 

It's customary for the bridal shower to be planned by the bridal shower or a close friend of the family so that the bride can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the special times in her life. Unfortunately this isn't the case for some brides such as myself and instead I insist upon helping with the planning because I love it so much. Thankfully I have a fabulous bridal party who knows how much of a control-freak I am and just lets me be apart of the planning!

When my maid of honor asked me what types of games I wanted to play at my shower, it really had me thinking. I wanted to do something fun and interactive yet I wanted to keep my games simple and able to be done as my guest enjoyed eating and talking with everyone. It hit me that I could easily create my own variations of games that I found across the internet by simply designing my own and printing them out! 

Creating my bridal shower games was so easy and only took a few minutes to create each one! I loved that I could customize my games down to the very last detail and that my guests would be playing a game that was unique to my special day- not a game that a million others had played before (although it would be a variation).

Follow my simple steps below to create your own bridal shower games! You could even use this tutorial to create other things such as birthday party games, invitations, and so much more!

Mobio Review and Giveaway

*I received a complimentary Mobio Pivot for review in exchange for my honest thoughts and opinions*

Mobio is a company that provides high-quality, innovative products to make your mobile devices more useful and convenient.  They identify the core uses of mobile devices, and design unique, beautiful products that are feature-rich and transformative in the mobile space.  They offer three great products; the Mobio Pivot, Mobio Go, and the Mobio Grip.

Most mobile device stands are pretty much the same, they are not very versatile and will only hold your device in one, maybe two positions, but they are very limited.  When I was asked to do a review for Mobio I was really excited about it.  The stand I had only held my tablet in two positions, and they never seemed to be the right one.  When I saw how versatile the Mobio products were I knew I would find good use for them.  I choose to review the Mobio Pivot.  With Mobio Pivot, you can use Skype™ or FaceTime™ without hands and your device is always at the perfect angle. Mobio Pivot becomes a handsfree, motionless tripod when you take photos or shoot movies. Then, when you want to review what you shot, Mobio Pivot holds your device so all can see. Now, waking up to music, playing games, showing presentations, reading books, cooking with recipes, are all easier and more ergonomic. Unlike other stands with limited flexibility and clunky design, Mobio Pivot is a precision-made, sleek, and elegant piece of art that enhances your experience with mobile technology.
