The planning and organisation never seem to stop when you are organising a wedding. From the wedding venue to the honeymoon, there are a million and one things to think about. So it can be a nice break for the bride when her bridesmaids plan a great hen party to let off some steam before the big day.
To make your life that little bit easier, we’ve put together this helpful guide to show you how to plan a hen party and organise the party attire.
How to plan a hen party - a step-by-step guide
When it comes to planning a hen party, there are quite a few things to consider.
Find out the bride’s preferences
First of all, it needs to be an event that sits well with the bride. It's no good planning a huge night out if she’s the sort of girl who would prefer more of a small-scale party. Because of that, it needs to be a fun event that the bride and everyone on board can have a great time at.
Get your timings right
However, the bride will most likely be quite busy in the time leading up to the big day, so it’s essential to organise the timings correctly. Find out when the best time is for the bride and all of her friends to have a big celebration and plan it accordingly. Having a conversation with the bride to iron out these details is the best way to begin before you get too far into the planning.
What will the celebration be like?
When you know properly when everyone is free, your ideas can begin to take off with what sort of length your celebration will be. Will it be one magnificent night to remember or will you choose a short break for the girls to enjoy?
Plan out your budget
When you get a general idea of the type of celebration the bride will most enjoy and the timeframe you can organise it within, it then comes down to making this idea a reality. This then means you can think about the best celebration that you can pull off in terms of its feasibility. That means that your budget first and foremost needs to be properly thought out. It could be great to choose a short weekend away at a fabulous location, but only if it is realistically affordable.
Where will it take place?
This then leads us to the location. If you have enough time, you can whisk everyone away to a fun new location. Perhaps you could go for a big city party or have a wonderful time by the coast? If it’s looking like the situation is calling for something more nearby, you can have a big blowout in the bride’s hometown and really let loose.
Get booking!
With all the essentials pinned down, you can begin to put this hen party into action. Check your chosen activity, accommodation and restaurants all have availability on your chosen dates. If they do, get booking!
Working out the finer details
When all of these things begin to fall into place, you will have a fully organised bachelorette party before you realise it. Now you have the main parts of your plan together, and have become an expert on how to plan a bachelorette party, you can work on the finer details. These can add that extra bonus to the celebrations. What would a party be without some flashy party wear?
Hen party outfits
In our opinion, one of the most important parts of organising a hen party is getting the outfits right. With such a fun occasion on the cards and with it being such a significant event, the right balance needs to be struck between wearing something comfortable and having impeccable style during the celebrations.
