If you've been tasked with arranging the hen night, then you
might already have some ideas planned. If you're not sure, what you need to be
aware of, or what's essential, then here's what you need to think
about.
1.Remember that it’s not your night, it's the bride's night, and
so you'll need to consider what the bride likes. Just because it's not something
you would choose doesn’t mean it's wrong, that she won't like it, or it's not
suitable for a hen party.
2.You'll need
to think about the number of guests, so that you know how many will be in your
party. It'll make choosing venues and arranging transport much
easier.
3.The location of your venue might be important too,

bridesmaids are travelling from all over the country, then would a central
location be better, or has she already got somewhere and something in
mind?
4.The date might be important, as you'll have to make sure that
everyone can attend. You might also need to ensure that the hen party venue is
available when you want it too. Otherwise you'll have to be more flexible on the
date or venue.
5.You'll need to remember to arrange some food. Perhaps
you'll want a full sit down meal, or maybe a finger buffet will go down better.
6.Don't forget to arrange entertainment too. Perhaps you'll have a theme
such as fancy dress, or the 70s, or maybe you'll want to have a magician or
dancers to entertain you, or even a cocktail masterclass.
7.If you're
having the hen party in a different town or city, then you'll want to make sure
that you book your accommodation in plenty of time, so that you're not having to
look for somewhere to stay when you arrive. Also, if you book in advance, you'll
have your pick of hotels so you'll be where you want to be too.
8.As well
as your hotel, ensuring that you book your transport to and from your hen party
venue in advance will mean that you're not looking for taxis when everyone else
is.
9.Even though it's one of the most important days of a girl's life,
you'll still want to make sure that you're getting value for money, and not
paying for things you don’t need,

also need to make sure that you're not penny pinching for the sake of it
too.
10.Above all,

what she wants to do! When it's your turn to get married you can
decide.
Now you know what to look for, and what’s important, you'll be
able to choose the perfect hen party venue.
Bridal showers
sometimes have a slew of events that can even make a veteran bridal shower
attendee bewildered. Old Aunt Mildred might feel a little left out if the
situation gets too out of hand. That’s why it’s helpful to have games like ice
breakers that make it easier for everyone to get to know each other. You simply
couldn’t have your best friend and office co-worker feel out of place in a room
full of your old friends. If the Maid of Honor is incompetent to handle the
bridal shower, it’s up to you to take matters into your hands and make out the
invitations, organize the litany of events at the shower, and do all the work of
setting up the food, refreshments,

party games.
Before sending out bridal shower invitations, it’s important
to send out save-the-date cards and magnets, sometimes up to 6 weeks ahead of
time, so that the bridal shower party knows when to come. These save the date
cards and magnets are helpful in case the invitation comes too late for the
attendee to change plans, vacation schedules, or kids’ activities. Bridal shower
invitations need to be sent out for the emotional wellbeing of the guest of
honor because friends are the most important gift anyone can give. Therefore,
the invitations are the crux of the party. Whatever happens afterward is
negligible. Listen to the bride and go along for the ride. Remember, if you’re
the Maid of Honor, you don’t have to like all the friends of the bride, but you
do have to invite them.
Some popular
games at bridal showers are ‘What Comes Next’, ‘What the Bride Says’, ‘Spice of
Life’, ‘Mom’s Advice’, ‘Clothespin Game’, ‘Memory Game’, ‘Penny Prize’,
‘Toasting the Couple’, ‘Luxury Spa’, ‘Honeymoon’, ‘Word Scramble’, ‘Send a
Note’, ‘Trivia Game’, ‘Finish the Proverb’, and Apples to Apples, a popular
board game courtesy of Hasbro’s brightest minds in the business. These
aforementioned games focus on aspects of the marriage.
Some bridal shower
invitations aren’t complete without a mention of the gifts such as really small
miniscule plants, golf balls, sunglasses, makeup, engraved gifts, picture
frames, miniature alcoholic beverage bottles, red roses, DVDs, books, gift
certificates, Christmas ornaments, ceramic angels and cutlery, magnets of the
bride, groom, and kids, bath soaps, bracelets, flower vases, and
more.
Don’t send out bridal shower invitations without consulting with
the bride ahead of time.
