Arranging a hen party consists of careful planning and well thought out preparation. Most people will spend more time thinking about the right guests to be invited. The following is a list of handy hints when choosing who to invite to your hen party:

1) Talk to the bride. What does she want? This should be the first priority and her being comfortable in the company of everybody who is invited is absolutely paramount.

2) Choose the right number of people that will create a good atmosphere and ambience on the night, don’t choose people just for the sake of numbers, the bride will want quality of people over anything else.

3) The nature of activity that you are planning will have to be taken into consideration before arriving at a conclusion about the number of guests. If you plan for something like going to a spa the number of guests should be confined to small numbers; on the other hand, if you plan to go to a club or party there should me more ladies to enhance the mood of the party.

4) Ensure you include everybody who is important to the bride. Intimate friends and family should come first.
5) A good idea is to have two separate celebrations to cater for everybody’s taste. One for family that is a classy affair could be a good idea, most brides don’t want Gran on a wild night out and she probably doesn’t want to be there either! The event for friends can then be as wild as you want to go!

6) Make sure that everyone knows about the entire plan. All guests should know well in advance where they are heading and what they are bringing. Paying beforehand is sometimes a good idea to make sure the night runs smoothly.
7) Contacting each guest personally is a good idea and emails are a cheap way of sending out all the information, plus they can be saved by the recipient.

 

Smart and forward thinking planning is the most important part of making a hen party run smoothly, allowing the excitement and entertainment to come naturally once everything organised.

 

If you are organising the night, it is important that you enjoy it, so having everything ready to go on the night will make sure you can also sit back and have fun. Factoring in a few surprises will make the night extra special for everybody involved.
