Five great winter hen do ideas!

Thrilled to have been asked to organise your best friend’s hen do? There’s no doubt that you have been chosen because you’re reliable, efficient and know how to have a good time, but that’s not to say organising the event is going to be easy. The bride is likely to have enough on her plate with organising her big day, so it is up to you to throw her a fabulous hen party she can enjoy and that can help take her mind off of things – other than providing you with a guest list, she shouldn’t have to do a thing! So, how can you ensure you give her a day to remember? Start planning early and order your bespoke all-in-ones for the hens today! There’s no better way to bring the group together and create maximum comfort on the day than by issuing each hen with her very own onesie! Once you’ve placed your order, start brainstorming ideas. Here are a few hen do concepts – perfect for winter – to get you started!

 

Cookery class

If the bride’s a real foodie, loves to cook or is known for her complete inability to boil an egg, what better way to get the girls laughing and having a great time than by organising a cookery class? There are a number of classes to choose from, from chocolate and truffle making to cake baking and Italian sausage making! Whether you choose to start the day with a short class before heading to a bar or club or decide to make a whole day of it and add in a couple of cocktails, your hens are bound to have a great day and could even come away having learnt some new skills! Why not consider creating bespoke onesies that replicate classic chefs’ attire?

 

Afternoon tea

A hen party afternoon tea can of course be simply as you’d expect and involve clotted cream, varieties of tea and tasty scones, but nowadays an afternoon tea can involve so much more. The growing popularity of whiling away an afternoon, eating and drinking with friends in a civilised manner has encouraged tea rooms, bars and restaurants all over the UK to introduce afternoon tea with a difference. You’ll find many places offer the option of swapping your tea for champagne, while some remove the scones in favour for something a little more exotic. Whether you take your hens to a country manner for a traditional afternoon tea or to a bar in town for alcoholic cocktails and Blumenthal-esque sandwiches, ensure they are dressed appropriately in their comfy all-in-ones!

 

White water rafting

Is your bride a bit of an adrenalin junkie? Then you’ll probably want to skip the afternoon tea and take her and the rest of your group to enjoy something that’ll get their hearts pumping a little faster! It might be winter and freezing cold outside, but that’ll make white water rafting all the more exhilarating! Bespoke all-in-ones underneath your waterproofs and adrenalin running through your veins will keep you warm enough as you crash through waves and down the rapids. It might not be everybody’s cup of tea but it’ll certainly give you all a day to remember!

 

Holiday retreat

One of the most important days of a girl’s life is her wedding day, but that’s not to say that the lead-up to it is just as fun and exciting! It’s highly likely that all your bride will want to do is escape the city and the wedding plans and relax for a couple of days, so why not rent a cottage out-of-town or a place by the sea for a weekend away? Take her somewhere she’s never been before, pack her a comfy onesie, fill the car up with wine and good food and enable her to spend some quality time with her close friends and family away from the stresses of planning a wedding!

 

Pamper day

Whether you organise a day of champagne and good old fashioned pampering in the comfort of your own home or take the hens to a spa for the day, your bride is bound to appreciate a luxurious day of R&R! Provide every hen with their own bespoke all-in-one with detachable feet (so toenails can be painted!) and ask them each to bring along something to add to the party: i.e. polish, champagne or face mask. Alternatively, you could invite everyone to a spa for the day where they can enjoy a variety of treatments and make use of the facilities.

 

No matter what fantastic ideas you come up, ensure everyone involved in the hen-do is dressed the part to make the day even more special. Providing each hen with their own onesie also gives them something to keep in order to remember the day by. Start designing your bespoke onesies today!
