Wedding quiz: questions about the couple + how to play it
A wedding quiz about the couple is one of the best-loved forms of reception entertainment: guests compete over who knows the couple best, run from the big screen by the host. It's a guaranteed conversation starter between tables.
Here are example questions for every category and a guide to making and playing the quiz live on guests' phones.
Example questions about the couple
How did the couple meet? · Who said 'I love you' first? · Where did the first date go?
Who's the better cook? · Who snores? · Who always forgets to take out the bins?
Where's the honeymoon? · What was the groom's childhood nickname? · Which song is 'their' song?
How to make the quiz
Write 8-15 questions from the couple's story and give each four options, one of them correct. Mix the romantic with the funny so the quiz gets both 'aww' and laughs.
The couple knows the answers, of course — so they can be the judges, or you let the system reveal the correct answer on the big screen.
Play it live on mobile
Instead of paper, guests can answer live on mobile in a Kahoot-style format: the big screen shows the question and countdown, guests tap, and the leaderboard crowns whoever knows the couple best. High energy, and it ties the tables together.

Frequently asked questions
- How many questions should a wedding quiz have?
- 8-15 works best — enough to be fun, short enough to keep the pace between courses.
- Who makes the quiz?
- Usually the host or the best man/maid of honour, from the couple's story. It should be a secret from the guests — and ideally from one half of the couple.
- Do guests need an app?
- No. They scan a QR code and answer in the mobile browser — no app, no login.
