Fortunately, we’re here to give you a complete guide to Bachelorette Jeopardy, including game rules, fun categories, and even funner questions on any topic you can imagine—from trivia about the bride to romantic movie quotes. Enjoy!
Our Favorite Bachelorette Party Jeopardy Questions
Certified wedding planner Ivy Summer suggests using funny stories shared by the bachelorette to create questions, especially if they tie into the proposal, like: “What did Lucy say after Amanda fell into the pool right before Jason proposed?” Other ideas include:
- What is the bride’s most used emoji?
- This is the fiancé’s Zodiac sign.
- This city is where the couple first met.
- This song has been added to the wedding’s do-not-play list.
- Ancient Greeks believed that this item protects the bride from evil spirits. (Veil)
Steps
How to Play Bachelorette Jeopardy
-
1Choose 5-6 categories with 5 questions each. When designing your own Jeopardy game, you can really play with as many categories and questions as you like, but most Jeopardy games have about 5-6 categories of 5 questions each. Ahead of time, you’ll want to write out each category and have these categories displayed to players. Under each category, you’ll write dollar or point values like 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500.[12]
- These point values are assigned to clues, and the clues should rise in difficulty based on their point value. I.e., the clue that’s worth 500 points should be the most difficult in its category, while the clue that’s worth 100 points should be the easiest.
- Remember that players should only be able to see the category names and point values at the start of the game—the clues shouldn’t be seen until each one is selected by a player.
- You can also decide if you want to include Double Jeopardy as a second round of the game—why not prolong the fun! In this round, the questions should be *slightly* harder and the point values should be doubled.
-
2Split the guests into teams of 2-4 and choose which team will go first. Depending on how many guests you have, you’ll likely want to split them up into teams. We’d suggest teams of about 2-4 people, although you might have each player play individually if you aren’t at a large party. Then, decide which team will go first by drawing straws, flipping a coin, or rolling a die.[13]
- Remember that your Jeopardy game will also have a host, who should be the person who created the game. Don’t include that person when splitting up the teams.
-
3Have the 1st team select a clue, then read it aloud and let teams buzz to answer. Once the first team has been selected, they will tell the host which clue they want to reveal. For example, they might say, “We’ll take ‘All About the Bride’ for 300, please.” Then, the host will reveal the clue underneath that category and the point value. Then, any team that thinks they know the answer can “buzz” in. You can use actual game buzzers, or have players raise their hand, make a funny noise, stand up, etc. However, you must be able to tell which team buzzed in first, since that’s the team that gets to answer.[14]
-
4If a team answers correctly, they earn the points—if not, another team can steal. If the team that buzzes in first answers the question correctly, they earn the points for that question. If they do not answer correctly, the other teams can buzz in again, and whoever buzzes in first gets to answer. Continue until someone gets the answer right. Make sure to keep track of points as you go.[15]
- In the actual Jeopardy! TV show, points are deducted if a team gets an answer wrong. You can decide if you’d like to deduct points or not during your game.
-
5Move on to Final Jeopardy once all questions have been answered. Once all of the clues have been revealed and answered, it’s time for Final Jeopardy. In this round, you’ll first reveal a category that this question would fit under, like “Honeymoon Destinations” or “Pop Culture Couples.” All teams will write down their bet for this question—if they get the question right, they’ll receive the number of points they bet. If they get it wrong, they’ll lose those points. Each team can only bet up to the number of points that are currently in their score.[16]
- Then, once all bets have been recorded, read the final question out loud. Teams will have about 30-60 seconds to quietly discuss and write down their answers.
- Once time is up, have each team read their answer and bet one by one.
- Then, you should be able to calculate the final scores. The team with the most points total after Final Jeopardy is the winner!

Tips
-
Summer says to come up with questions that incorporate memorable moments from the proposal to tie into the theme of the party. For example, you could ask, “What did Lucy say after Amanda fell into the pool right before Jason proposed?”[17]Thanks
