Wedding Anniversary Quiz Questions

If you're a couple who love quizzes, why not celebrate your wedding anniversary with one? Wedding anniversary quiz questions can be done in a number of ways, but we have two favourites.

One option is you could create a wedding anniversary quiz for your partner, with the questions and both of your answers already planned out - and then quiz each other to see if you can guess what the other one would say.

Another, and perhaps our most favourite, is to collate the questions and answer them together in real time. This way you can debate your answers and reminisce the first year of your marriage together, in quiz format.

The questions can be about looking back at the wedding day itself, or reflecting on your honeymoon and the memories you've made since tying the knot. 

36. What was your favourite wedding guest moment and why?

37. What's your favourite memory of the wedding and why? 

38. Who was the drunkest at the wedding?

39. Choose your favourite wedding picture and explain why you love it the most.

40. Which of our wedding presents did you love the most, and which did you love the least?

41. If you could relive our wedding or honeymoon, which one would you choose?

42. What's your funniest memory from our honeymoon?

43. If you could re-do our honeymoon somewhere else with no budget attached, where would you go and why?

44. What's been your biggest lesson since getting married?

45. Name all the significant dates in our relationship e.g. the date we met, the date we got engaged and the date we got married. 

46. Would you renew our vows - yes or no and what's the reason? 

47. Challenge: try to recite your wedding vows as best as you can remember. 

48. Challenge: write down everyone who was in our wedding party on both sides - first person gets a point.

49. We get to redo our wedding day all over again - what would you do differently and what would you insist stays the same?

50. What's your favourite thing about being married?

These wedding trivia game questions are great because everyone has a guess (even if they’ve only just met you that morning), and the answers often spark the best stories and belly laughs.

“How Well Do You Know the Couple?” Quiz

The classic, and for good reason. Pop these questions on cards at each table, or run it as a mini game during the speeches. You can even make it a competitive team challenge with prizes!

Fun Question Ideas:

  • Where did the couple first meet?
  • Who said “I love you” first?
  • What’s their favourite film to watch together?
  • Who’s the better cook?
  • What’s their go-to takeaway order?
  • Who’s more likely to cry during the ceremony?
  • What’s their most-used emoji in their WhatsApp chats?
  • Who took longer to reply to the first message?
  • What was their first holiday destination?
  • What’s their shared guilty pleasure?

Bonus idea: Add a “Who’s most likely to…” round for extra laughs. E.g. Who’s most likely to leave their passport at home on honeymoon?

Top Tips for Personalised Wedding Quizzes:

  • Keep it light, funny and warm. Nothing too embarrassing!
  • Mix multiple choice, true or false and open-ended questions
  • Add in one or two red herrings to trick long-time friends!
  • Encourage guests to write their own question to add to the guest book

You could even have the couple fill out their answers in advance, and reveal them after dinner with a “big reveal” moment, like a live game show, but with more fizz and confetti.

How to Use Quizzes at Your Wedding

Quizzes and trivia aren’t just for after-dinner pub nights. Here’s how to sprinkle them throughout your wedding day in ways your guests will love:

Wedding Table Ice Breakers: Leave a stack of wedding trivia questions at each table. Guests can play between courses, with or without a host, so it's fun and fuss-free.

Guest Book Prompts: Turn a quiz into an interactive guestbook! Ask guests to fill out a card with their best guess at some “how well do you know the couple?” questions and add their name and message.

Speech Starters: Want to start your speech with something unexpected? Kick it off with a quick quiz:

“Before I start, let’s find out who really knows us...” It gets a laugh, sets the tone, and brings everyone in.

Favour Ideas: Create bespoke wedding trivia cards as part of your favours. A cute keepsake and fun game in one.

Hen & Stag Nights: Create a themed wedding trivia quiz for your hen or stag group! Mix in personal questions, dares, and plenty of sassy celeb wedding facts.

How Can I Make Wedding Trivia Cards?

Fancy getting a bit crafty? Here's how to make your own wedding table trivia cards:

What You’ll Need:

  • Paper, card, or shop-bought templates (you can also download and print these online!)
  • Printed or handwritten wedding quiz questions
  • Pens or pencils for guests
  • Envelopes or holders to keep them tidy

Design Tips: Match them to your theme, whether it's a boho, modern or classy celebration - or all three! You can also number the cards or colour-code them by table, before adding a sweet romantic quote about love to each one. 

Professional Tip: Laminate them for spill-proof fun, just in case somebody gets too enthusiastic with the wine!

How Do I Create a Wedding Trivia Quiz?

Creating your own wedding trivia quiz is easier than saying “I do” after a glass of prosecco. Here’s how to do it in five easy steps:

Step 1: Choose Your Question Category

  • All about the couple (a personal favourite!)
  • General wedding trivia questions (like royal weddings or famous films)
  • How well do you know the wedding party? Questions about the bridesmaids, groomsmen and parents of the newlyweds.
  • A mix of both!

Step 2: Write Your Questions

  • Pick a balance of easy and silly, so nothing too hard!
  • Use multiple choice, true/false, or “who’s more likely to...”
  • Add a wildcard question to catch people out 
  • Aim for 10-20 per category, so there's enough to get people scratching their heads. 

Step 3: Decide How to Play

There are a few avenues you can go down with the style of quiz you make. Such as...

  • Table quiz cards for a low-key vibe
  • MC-led for some laughs after dinner
  • Quiz sheets to fill out as a guest book alternative

Step 4: Add a Prize

Think mini bottles, sweet bags, or “Best Team Name” awards. Prizes always up the stakes!

Step 5: Print It or Go Digital

Design cute quiz cards to match your theme, or go paper-free with an online quiz tool for hen dos and virtual parties. Etsy also has plenty of homemade, crafty stationery that you can purchase and personalise for your big day.
