Hen night ideas

It varies a lot in my experience!

I’m having about 12 girls staying in a house for 2 nights and we’re taking games and planning like an old school sports day as well as doing a murder mystery evening.

I’m maid of honour for my friend next year and she has asked for an overnight spa stay which sounds really nice and chilled.
I’ve previously been to an afternoon tea which was lovely and also to a dinner/drinks/night out type hen do.
It can really vary depending on the number of people, budget and what your personal preference is.
So many options out there xx

I have just had my hen do this weekend! Went to the Belfry in Birmingham for a spa weekend. They do quite a few deals. We had dinner, bed and breakfast and a spa treatment for £165 each sharing twin rooms. Spa was a bit rushed and busy in our opinion, actual treatments were lovely but the hotel was so busy. Food was amazing and so were the staff. We had dinner then my friends had decorated one of the bedrooms and we had a party in the room with hen games such as draw the dress, pin the Willy on the groom, Mr and Mrs game. Then we went to the on site night club which was hilarious.
It was fantastic, had a great time. I had asked for that though and basically told them what I wanted to do. There were 18 of us so quite a big group. Fun memories

20 of us went to Bath for my hen. My sister arranged it all. We had a lovely house for us all right in the centre. We had a lovely lady come and do a gin tasting/making session followed by a night out on the first night. On the next day we all went to bath spa and done some shopping. The second night we had a butler in the buff and a private chef which was incredible. It was a lovely weekend.
Happy hen do planning

I've not had mine yet but I'm letting my MOH and bridesmaids plan it! It's really nice to take the organisation stress off of me, I also get a surprise that way, and they get to organise something that's definitely in their budget and that they'll all enjoy too rather than feeling pressured into agreeing to because the bride asked

All I've told them is a guest list (I'd rather a small mixed gender group than every woman invited to the wedding/in the families) and a few things that I really wouldn't want to do but then just trusting that they know me and they'll make it nice!

Firstly, congratulations!!
My wedding is October 2023 but so far, my “hen night” will be lots of drinks on FaceTime with my sister (she lives in Scotland, I’m in England) and our usual girly chats. I’m not big on massive nights out and don’t have many friends nearby also my wedding will be a small elopement so it’ll be very low key!
