88 <strong>With</strong> <strong>This</strong> <strong>Ring</strong> There’s nothing nicer than a wedding where guests mix and<br />
mingle no matter which side of the family or group of friends they<br />
represent. But sometimes you need a way of breaking the ice<br />
and planning something they can enjoy while the bridal party are<br />
being photographed. So try these games that are fun for all ages.<br />
