    Mine was a month, would have had it closer but I had a murder mystery weekend so really could only do it when they had them on Smiley smile

    Mine is two weeks before, I would have liked it to be a bit further away tbh but it's enough time to get rid of the spots that the alcohol will inevitably bring on!

    I had mine 2 months before the wedding. This was the only date we could do when people were available.

    Mine is waaaay in advance, im getting married in June next year but 2 of my close friends are also getting married soon before and soon after me so lots of hen parties for my group of friends.

    So, we had a chat and decided we'd spread them out a bit to help everyone out with saving up! My hen weekend in Brighton will be October this year (didnt want it any closer to xmas or soon after) and then i will have a local night out a month before the wedding.

    I didnt mind having mine early and i think it will work out well for all of us involved ?

    We are thinking of going abroad, and if we do then it will need to be about 6 months before the wedding! We will do something closer to the time, too, though - I imagine this will just be a night out in town though. I would always aim to do this about 4 weeks in advance of the wedding.

    Think mine is going to be about 4 months before the wedding for a weekend in Prague, then a local one closer.

    Mine was two months before. I would have liked to do it a bit closer to the wedding, but loads of my friends are doctors, and we all change jobs in August, and usually don't know our rotas until a few days before we change (oh how I love NHS management!) so it would have made planning a nightmare. It worked out really well though; we had a fantastic weekend.

    Mine will be 5 weeks before. It's the only date that my MOH can get with me, due to my work rota. The week before the wedding I'm at a 65th Birthday party.
