75 Newlywed Game Questions (Free List)

The newlywed game works because the questions are easy and the answers aren’t. Sit the couple back to back, read a question, and have each of them write an answer. Show them on three. A match scores a point; a mismatch scores a laugh.

How to run it

1. Pick 15 to 25 questions. More than that and the room drifts.
2. Mix easy ones, funny ones and a few sweet ones, and save a sweet one for last.
3. Give each partner a paddle or a small whiteboard and a marker.
4. Keep score where guests can see it. Optional: guests guess the final score for a prize.
