I forgot where I got this idea from (I think it was my aunt), but I’m planning on doing an “icebreaker game.” We’re going to tape winning tickets underneath chairs before the reception. When all the guests take their seats, we’re going to ask them to look for a winning ticket under their seats. Winners will come up to the dance floor to collect prizes. I think this’ll be a great way to break the ice, and who doesn’t love winning?

I need some ideas for prizes. I was thinking about spending around $50 for each one and it has to be something that everyone likes. Any ideas on what I should get?

PS - A great way to get shy guys to join in on the garter toss is to attach a $50 or $100 bill to it. The men will race up there! We’re not planning on doing a garter toss though - I don’t see it too often anymore. Perhaps it’s going out of style?
