Organising a hen party can be rather daunting. What makes party planning for a hen ‘do’ tricky depends on the hen’s personal preferences and taste.
Whatever you choose for the single-girl’s send-off, here are a few tips on how to make it truly unforgettable (in a good way)!
Fancy dress
Fancy dress nights are brilliant fun, and the theme can be tailored to suit hens and guests of all ages. For your theme you could choose a film or a musical, a historical period or characters from a cartoon series. A group of ladies in fancy dress is always guaranteed to attract plenty of attention, and probably a free drink or two if it’s obvious you’re on a hen night!
Designer T-shirts
A very popular idea for hen parties is to equip all your hens with a personalised T-shirt. There are plenty of printing companies that will print your own design for you including photos and text. Why not include each person’s ‘job’, i.e. ‘Bride To Be’, ‘Maid Of Honour’ etc or print people’s nicknames on the back of their tops. Personalised T-shirts also make a lovely souvenir of a great night out that people can keep.
Something different
Instead of just the evening out why not go for a whole day’s activities, and choose something a little bit different for your hen ‘do’. Many event companies offer options like cupcake decorating, cocktail making or an organised fashion photo-shoot. Perhaps you’d prefer a day at a spa enjoying some pampering treatments, a light lunch and a bottle of bubbly. If you’re sporty, you could charter a boat and go sea-fishing, rock climbing or pony trekking. If you fancy something glamorous and exciting, how about a day at the races?
Just remember to have the details of your planned activities printed on your party invitations, together with advice on what to wear and what guests need to bring with them. For fully personalised hen party invitations, why not use Putty Print to start organising a truly memorable night.
In conclusion
It’s never easy being tasked with organising a hen party, but hopefully these ideas will provide you with a little inspiration to make the event a truly special occasion that everyone will remember for a very long time!
