This is a great ice breaker, and gets everyone involved-
Set two chairs back to back in the middle of the dance floor.
Ask the bridal party to stand about 10' in front of the chairs... bridesmaids/maid of honor on one side and groomsmen/best man on the other.
Have the bride sit in the chair facing her bridesmaids...then have the groom remove both of the brides shoes.
Have the groom then sit in the other chair facing his groomsmen and remove both of his shoes as well.
Trade one shoe each so both the bride and groom have one of each of their shoes.
Now you will announce "This game is to show how much the new Mr./Mrs. John and Jane Doe really know about each other... I will ask you a question and you raise the shoe that you think best fits the answer to the question... alright here's a practice question..."Right now, who has the most cash on them?"
Sometimes you'll see some great hesitation faces like their really not sure, or even better when you ask a question like... "Who wears the pants in the family"... Sometimes the bride will put up her shoe, and the groom will put up his. It's hilarious. You'll get high fives, and the families laughing.

Who wears the pants in this relationship?
"There you go ladies and gentlemen, now you know who know's who the best"

Here is another one: The Money Dance/Dollar Dance is a traditional part of a wedding reception in various cultures.
During a "Money Dance" (one song), male guests pay for the privilege of dancing with the bride, and female guests pay for the privilege of dancing with the groom. The custom originated in Poland in the early 1900s in immigrant neighborhoods and is still celebrated at many weddings today. The money is to be used for the bride and groom's honeymoon.
