Hi everyone, I totally have no ideas about what to do for my hen do. My h2b is going to bulgaria but as we are getting married abroad I dont really feel like I can expect my guests to pay to go abroad for both my hen do and the wedding! I dont like the idea of a loud, drink fuelled hen do as thats not really my kind of thing. I'd like it to be lots of fun and something to remember that all the party (of different ages) will enjoy. Does anyone have any ideas and what has everyelse got planned? x

I'm having a nice quiet meal with all the women that will be attending my wedding, as that is only about 7 women it's going be really nice :)
CommentAuthorxAbix
Thats a nice idea! My bridesmaid has found a hotel/spa with a meal out in the city and treatments included, I do really like the idea although it was in Leeds and thats where I live so I can go to Leeds anytime. I have looked for this kind of offer in other cities but cant find any!!!! Is yours a surprise?! x
I'd be no good at that, no co-ordination at all!!! x

Posted a web address on you wall for a good site that specialises in hen/stag parties, some really good ideas on there that include weekends that wont cost as much as going outside the uk. Hope this helps xx
CommentAuthorCass
best idea if you dont want to got out drinking or anything is to go out for a lovely meal in a fancy hotel or something really special like that
CommentAuthorspooney24
I am planning to go on an activity day doing clay pigeon shooting, archery, blindfold 4x4 driving, dry raft racing, problem solving and digger driving, then home to change ready for a meal out before hitting the town. x
26th December 2007 - the day I met my special man
8th August 2008 - the day he was mad enough to propose to me
24th July 2010 - the day I felt beautiful inside and out and
became Mrs Dickie for life. xx
CommentAuthorJoneseygal
A lot of places offer spa days which could appeal to a variety of ages
CommentAuthorJacey
Someone I know had a wine and cheese party for her hen night! Another idea is a switch and bitch party, everyone brings things they no longer wear/have use for and a bottle and you all swop the clothes you dont want for clothes you like the look of whilst having a drink and a chit chat :) x
CommentAuthorFaye
Im looking at a weekend break in Newquay... you can arrange plenty of activities etc!!! x
CommentAuthorxAbix
Spoony24 that sounds like an action packed day!! Love the spa idea, think thats my fave at the moment I love being pampered! Faye what is Newquay like I have never been there before?
CommentAuthorGoff
We WERE going to go to my friends horror themed restarant for a meal, then into the town, but my MOH has now decided we are going to book a table at The Birdcage, then go off into the Village later on and are having a Gothic/Burlesque theme lol

CommentAuthorlala "mod" bunni
i fancy having a tribute gig with a meal and then maybe a spa day
Newquay is lovely... a surfers paradise, I went once a few years back, and you can just walk round in your bikini, vest and shorts, hair a mess (the beach look apparantely) and really enjoy yourself! Looked at making it a week hol, as I got an amazing tan last time, then arranging an action packed day with paintballing and quad biking, then a spa pampering day, then the rest as a hol!!! xx
CommentAuthorginge23
Iv heard a lot of good reports on Newquay would love to go but it is very far from us. xx
CommentAuthorMagsy

CommentAuthorxxsophieMxx

CommentAuthorKizzy81
I was looking into hiring private kareoke rooms - you can do it in a few locations accross the UK. It's my favourite thing to do in China, so...
Failing that, I wondered about the 80s weekend in Henley!
CommentAuthorden1fd
I'm going to go on a ghost investigation/hunt for mine! Then will proberbly be doing the usual drinks on another night for the friends who cant make the investigation.
CommentAuthorxAbix
I love York races Sophie its a brilliant day out! You'll have an excuse to drink extra champagne as its your hen do!!!
Kizzy there is a kareoke bar in Leeds that I have been to before on a hen night it was lots of fun, but not when i saw and heard the video of my singing the next day I'm surprised they didn't kick me out I was that bad but at they time I really thought I was great!
The ghost hunt sounds really cool I love scary stuff like that, where are you doing that?!
CommentAuthorden1fd
There's 2 different nights for the ghost hunt, one is in skinningrove, north yorkshire, the other danby castle in danby north yorkshire, the 1st one is £20 each, the 2nd £25 each. its on www.abbeyghosthunters.co.uk.
think the kareoke bar is called ok kareoke. i'm sure they'll be used to dodgy warbling lol!!
CommentAuthorSuzi

I'm just wondering what everyone is doing for there hen nights? I'm not sure what to do, my Chief Bridesmaid is my Sister Clare and she's awesome, but she'll organise to go out drinking, because that's what she does. But I don't want that, because of my Kidney Failure I can't drink, so any ideas would be welcomed, and also ideas on how I can tell my Sister what I want without her taking any offense to be told what to do? xx

I'm off to vegas woohoo :> and i am having a day at the races ladies day at ascot then i shall have a normal drink up probably at school disco and whatever else i can afford to fit in, i will be moving to newcastle from London so have to see all my friends and family before i go :> you could do one of the open air concerts in the parks that way all ages can attend and it's something different or go on a beano to the seaside they are always good for a laugh.
CommentAuthorlollilou
We're going to a small music festival dressing up as fairies and staying in a teepee (I'm not supposed to know that bit my sister let it slip) We are doing the Fri night/Sat day then the Stags are doing Sat night/Sun day so we won't need babysitters. Can't wait it's next weekend! Just hope the weather is good. As to Hen nights without drink perhaps a spa day, action day, a nice meal? I'm afraid to say mine is going to include lots of booze! Ignition I'm sure your sister would understand if you asked for something without drinking being involved, I know it's not fun to be the only sober one on a hen night I did a couple when I was pregnant.xx
CommentAuthorada
The music festival sounds like a realy good idea and so different hope that you have a good time xxx
CommentAuthorAnnette
All my BM's are flying in from Norway and my MOH from New York so I'm forced to have a "last minute" sort of thing, think we'll either do a spa day and quiet drinks the night before, or (as all of them have said they'd rather come over early to help and stuff) we might set something up like going to Alton Towers or summat the week before :) but none of us are big drinkers so no hangover for us! :) xx
