How to play
Three steps- 1
Before each heat the bride answers a yes-or-no question about herself on her phone. Nobody else sees her answer.
- 2
Three, two, one, GO. Everyone mashes RUN and the cars set off. When the leader is a third of the way, the question pops up on every guest’s phone with two big buttons.
- 3
A right answer is a twelve-step boost. A wrong one loses eight steps and stalls you for two seconds. First across takes three points, then two, then one.

Hosting tips
From real showers- Keep the questions easy. The race is the game; the question is a speed bump, not an exam.
- Rewrite a few in the editor to be very specific to her: her coffee order, her dog’s name, the city she cried in.
- Watch the bride’s face when the room gets one wrong. That is the moment.
Questions
AnsweredWho checks the answers?
The bride. She answers each question on her phone before the heat starts, and the game compares every guest’s tap to hers the instant it comes in.
Does the bride play too?
Yes, she drives the white car with the veil. She sits the question out with a short hold so nobody has to answer while she keeps driving.
What if I never answer the question?
You cannot run until you do, so answer fast. A wrong guess still beats standing still.
