The Wedding Shoe Game

A game that is practised the world over, but in India has gained traction recently. After the ceremony, the couple sits back-to-back and is handed one footwear of the partner. Then the emcee proceeds to ask the couple various questions like who likes to wake up early in the morning, who likes to cook, etc. in a bid to test how well they know their partner. To answer, they must raise the shoe of the person who they believe is the answer to the question! It is guaranteed to bring about laughter, and thoroughly entertain the crowd!
