If you’re busy planning your hen party it can be tough to find new ideas. Hen parties are certainly getting bigger with hens searching for increasingly weird, wonderful and often extravagant ways to celebrate the nearly-weds last days of singledom.
Budget can be a factor when choosing your hen party destination but there is something out there to suit every party purse, whether you’re opting for lobster and caviar or funky fish and chips. So here are a few ideas from one of the UK’s largest hen party planning services GoHen.
Budget Friendly – Champagne Punting
Elegant, decadent but wonderfully affordable. Hens can enjoy a relaxing punt along the Cam (Cambridge), Avon (Bath), Thames (Oxford) with a few glasses of bubbly to toast the guest of honour.
For those that like a touch more special attention you can opt for a barman to be with you to mix the girls a few cocktails as you go. A relaxing, tranquil way for the bride-to-be to escape the rigours of wedding planning. “Simply marvellous darling!”
Star Treatment – Recording Studio
The whole hen party can live out their X-Factor dreams and show some real “girl power” with a day in a professional recording studio. With thousands of songs to choose from, studio technicians will be on hand to give the hens some pointers and mix down the final track for each guest to keep.
A nice surprise during the wedding disco or something to send to a certain Mr Cowell perhaps? The No1 hit is surely in the bag!
Further Afield – Glamping
Glamping has turned into the hen party hit of 2014. Hens are now enjoying luxury, eco-friendly accommodation such as Yurts, Tipis, Geodomes and Cabins.
With fantastic creature comforts such as sheepskin rugs, wood burning stoves, lanterns, fairy lights, firepits and hot showers they are homes away from home but with extra glamour. You can even arrange your own mini-festival in the bride-to-be’s honour.
