- Start with Her Vibe
First things first: this day is all about her. Is she the life of the party who loves a big night out, or is she more into a luxe spa day with her closest friends? Whether it’s a dance floor or a zen retreat, nailing down her vibe will make every decision easier and keep the hens party feeling personal and meaningful.

- Kick Off with a Fun Activity
Interactive activities get everyone involved and set the tone for an amazing time. We love cocktail-making classes, private dance lessons, or even a luxe wine and cheese tasting. Choose something that speaks to her personality, and let the laughs and memories start from there.

- Make it a Destination (or a Luxe Staycation)
If you’re feeling adventurous, consider a weekend getaway to a chic destination! Or, book a beautiful Airbnb or luxe hotel suite nearby and turn the hens into a mini holiday. Staying together means more laughs, more bonding, and a little escape from the everyday.

- Nail Those Personal Touches
The magic is in the details, darling! Think themed decor, personalised favours, custom itineraries, and even a few surprise elements. These touches will elevate the event and leave everyone talking about it long after the champagne’s finished. And don’t forget the photo ops!

- Plan for the Afterparty
Whether the night ends in cosy pyjamas or dancing until dawn, have a loose plan for the afterparty that suits her vibe. Keep it flexible, so everyone can go with the flow, but organised enough that everyone knows where they’re headed for the final hoorah.
