10 Things You NEED To Host The Perfect Hen’s Night

What do you need for the perfect Hen’s Night?

It’s time for the ladies to let loose out on the town, celebrating a bride to be! The Bachelorette Party or more popularly known as the ‘Hen’s Night’ is a chance to give the bride-to-be one epic “last night of pre-marital freedom” with her bridesmaids before tying the knot.

Most of the time, a Hen’s Party will consist of everything penis related, card games and drinking games, a few bride-to-be gifts and a whole lot of good fun and great memories to be made.

Never Hosted a Hen’s Party?

If you’ve never attended or hosted a bachelorette / Hens party, let us hook you up, here are some tips to host the perfect hen’s night!

Involve the Bride in the Preparations

It can be tempting to keep it all a surprise for the bride, but even if it’s just a short convo about who she wants to invite, the events and places she would like to go and the overall theme of the night. Some hens might not also be comfortable with being the centre of attention all night either, so check in with her and see what she is comfortable with.

Also, some brides-to-be would be mortified at the thought of strippers… so definitely discuss that first!

Pace The Drinkies 

To keep everyone out of the toilet bowl early on, make sure that your hen’s party group pace themselves throughout the night. Offer water, food and remedies to help with the hangover the next day. It will help avoid having the group babysit one gal who has drunk just a bit too much before 10pm.

Book Transport In Advance 

Nothing worse, than everyone being ready to go and then you find out you have to wait for a taxi or Uber for another hour! Prevent any hiccups like that, and book your transport in advance to keep your girls on time to their venues.

Transport Ideas can include:

  • Look at hiring a mini-bus – when you divide the cost amongst everyone – it works out quite affordable.
  • Hire a Limo and go in style!
  • Look at hiring a Party Bus for the evening

Discuss The Hen’s Night Costs Before The Night

It can be tricky to bring up but organize with all your ladies a budget for activities, bride to be gifts, drinks and meals if needed. Another way is that everyone pays their own way on the night, of course, excluding the bride to be.

Costs can include the following:

  • Transport Costs
  • Dinner
  • Drinks
  • Entertainment
  • Decorations
  • Strippers

Is The Conversation Getting Awkward? 

If you’ve started the drinks before heading out, and it’s feeling a little awkward between all the girls. Hen’s nights usually aren’t just all your mates – often the mother of the bride or Aunties etc will come along too.

To get all the girls talking and interacting together, start with a drink and some fun hen’s night games to loosen everyone up. Often bridal parties will consist of women who aren’t necessarily friends or know each other well. So it’s a great way for everyone to get to know each other and break the ice!  Starting the hen’s night at someone’s home so that the older ladies who might not want to go out and get f***ed up at the club can enjoy the night before you start raging is a nifty idea!

Hen’s Night Activity Ideas

If you are looking for a bit of inspiration for what to do on a hen’s night – here are some ideas!

1. Book an Escape Room Party

  • Best for groups of 10 or less

This is what we here at Stay at Home Mum are doing for our Christmas Party this year.  There are Escape Rooms everywhere now – not only are they are a fun activity, but they are also team building as well!

Check out the Escape Rooms in your state:

2. Have Your Work Christmas Party at a Theme Park

This is a great idea if you have a large team with loads of kids.  Think Movie World, Wet N Wild, Dreamworld or wherever is close to where you work.

If you don’t live handy to the Gold Coast, there are Theme Parks all over Australia – in fact, we have a list of the best of them!

Dreamworld even has a ‘Corporate Christmas’ on Saturday 11th December that includes a Christmas themed buffet dinner with a dessert station, a 5-hour beverage package, rides and attractions open for exclusive use and live shows and entertainment.

3. Take Your Hen’s Out for High Tea

We recently had a very fancy High Tea at Aimee Provence at Buderim.  There I had the very best scones I have eaten in all my life (highly recommend!).  High Tea is a very decadent Christmas Party – and the best part is that you can do it for Morning Tea or Lunch – so no going out at night!

If you aren’t located on the Sunshine Coast – here are other locations to have a fancy High Tea for your Work Christmas Party. See the locations below.

4. Go to a Comedy Club

Comedy is huge right now, you only have to look at all of the Netflix Specials to know!  But did you also know that Comedy Clubs have popped up all over Australia?

For a list of upcoming Comedy Events, check out Event Finda.

5. Take the Hen’s to a Karaoke Club

See how your best mate from Primary School Karen sings ‘Blaze of Glory’ or how Gary the IT Manager belts out ‘It’s Raining Men’.

We have a list of all the Australian Venues that do Karaoke right here!

6. Book a Party Boat

Party Boats are great for a Hen’s night of 20 girls or less.  You hire a boat that will usually also include catering (usually a barbecue) and will have an open bar.  The great thing about a party boat is that it usually only lasts a strict 2 – 3 hours – the bad thing is that no one can leave early.

7. Go to a Fancy Rooftop Bar for Cocktails

If you have a bit of a budget, why not book a beautiful rooftop bar for the evening and enjoy the view with fancy cocktails!

8. Book a Cocktail Bartender for Your Barbecue

Make barbecues a little EXTRA with a pro cocktail bartender. Do away with just beer for one night and have extra fun with cool drinks.

9. Hold a Murder Mystery Night

Game nights are always fun! You can let loose for a bit and turn on your competitive mode – but in a good way! Impress your girlfriends with your mystery-solving skills while building camaraderie with your workmates too. Take on different characters and be spooky and silly at the same time!

There are Murder Mystery games you can purchase online but you can do a little research and come up with your own game. This is a great bonding time for parties to spruce up the mood.

If you want to purchase an ‘All done for you’ Murder Mystery Game – we recommend the following:

10-20 Characters  An Invitation to Midnight Manor  Murder image 1

10. Have a Trivia Night

Who is the greatest basketball player of all time? Okay, maybe this isn’t a good one for trivia night as it would result in a heated debate rather than an exciting exchange of answers. Trivia Night is a good addition to parties! This way your party won’t be monotonous. While the alcohol hasn’t kicked in yet, or maybe when the alcohol has already kicked in, it really depends on your team, yes?

See who among your mates is the geekiest! Include a trophy for the trivia king or queen!

You can pick up ready-made Trivia Night questions from Etsy.
