The wedding assassin game: turn strangers into co-conspirators

At most weddings, half the guests have never met the other half. The assassin game gives them a reason to strike up a conversation, from cocktail hour to the dance floor, as everyone tries to get their secret target to complete a silly mission without noticing. Guests just scan a QR code, no app needed.

No app to install. Ready in two minutes.

Sample missions

• ●Get your target to say the word 'confetti'.
• ●Get your target to imitate the photographer shouting 'Everybody say cheese!'.
• ●Get your target to tell you their favourite moment of the ceremony.
• ●Get your target to compliment the bride's dress or the groom's suit.
• ●Get your target to hold your wedding favour for you.

Tips for organizers

• Put the QR code poster by the bar or the guest book during cocktail hour, so people join while they mingle and wait for dinner.
• Decide early whether the couple plays. Including them makes for great stories; leaving them out lets them enjoy the day as amused spectators.
• Announce the winner between dinner and the first dance, and have a small prize ready, like a bottle of bubbly or the right to pick the next song.
