The Newlywed Game

A few nights ago, we had some new friends over for dinner and board games, Danny and Janelle! This last summer I found a game from 1986, the board game version of the television show, The Newlywed Game.

Janelle and Danny are actual newlyweds (they got married in October) and they had such a great sense of humor about this ridiculous game…

After awhile, all we did was crack up at the silly outdated language on the cards and count every single time the card referenced “making whoopie.” Hilarious.

It was such a fun night and it made me want to make more time to play board games! What about you? What board game are you playing lately? What’s your favorite game to play with other couples?

love, elizabeth

  1. oh my gosh this looks awesome! I always wanted to go on the Newlywed Game (and still do!). We'll have to get the board game so we can practice before the real thing. haha

    I love games! My favorites are Scattergories, Cranium, and anything else that relies on intelligence and not just luck.

  4. The hubby and I are newlyweds and have gotten really into hosting game nights for a couple of our closest friends. We usually play Scrabble, but have tons of fun because we love making crazy words and having contests to see who can use the most letters :) We also have played a lot of trivia type games with guys against girls or couples against couples...really fun!
