    Hi girls i was just wondering how long before the wedding everyone is having or had their Hen nights? just my maid of honour is organising mine and keeps asking me when to have it but neither of us have ever been to one so were not sure. x

    Mine is the month before, my personal recommendation though is to have it around the beginning of the month so that people have usually just been paid. Or as I have done set up a bank account for everyone to pay £20 a month into for the whole weekend to be paid for xx

    I am thinking about having mine about 6 weeks before too and I agree with others that have suggested to arrange it when people usually have a pay packet! xx

    Mine was a month before the wedding, I think having it that bit earlier is a good idea :)

    Is it okay that I'm getting married at the end of September and I'm having my hen do mid May? Never really questioned it until someone asked me why... I do have my dads 50th birthday in August and sister 21st in July.. Plus it lands on the weekend of my birthday... But just made me think, and most others are having there's a month before! Am I okay?

    Mines is the week before, both me and my MOH are at uni and that's when we are on break. I set the time frame because I didn't want to be stressed with exams/essays during my hen so week off means no stress and I can enjoy it fully.
    So there is no right answer to this question based off of all the answers but I would say go for a time when you have free time and don't have to worry about things so you can have fun

    I think mine is going to be about 4/5 months early, because we are getting married in May and MOH is planning something and she doesn't want us all to freeze. I still can't decide if its a big odd haha

    I'm getting married May 2018 and will probably have mine about 4-5 weeks before. However my other half is going on his stag do in September/October 2017 so quite sometime before the big day as he wanted to go to a certain beer festival for his and has wanted to do it for years so no matter what date we got married that was always going to be his stag do so I don't think it matters how close or not to the wedding.

    I'm hoping leaving mine a little later will mean I won't have long to get excited for the wedding then, however for those that will be stressing nearer the time perhaps it is easier to have it more in advance. Can also depend on what you actually want to do for it too!

    We get married this November - OH's stag do will be in September or early October, and I'm planning my hen for around the same time. Planning of have 2 - one back at home for those who cant travel - something sedate - just a meal etc, and then something a little more lively a week or so later in Cardiff.

    Would love to abroad but just no way we can afford it on top of everything else

    Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan
